Stars Like Acid: Book One - Paperback

by Marissa Lupe (Author)

Téa, a Latina soldier in training, is used to standing her ground in a world that seems hellbent on bringing her to her knees. Orphaned at age five and held captive on a military base for most of her life, she barely remembers a time before the government controlled her every move.

Now, fifteen years later, the Earth is dying, a resistance is forming, and the corrupt government is hoarding resources and information that could save the world. When Téa is forced to marry the son of a terrifying general, she stumbles across a dark secret that could finally dismantle her power-hungry father-in-law's regime and offer her a chance at freedom.

Humans are evolving in dangerous and powerful ways, and Téa may be the most powerful one of them all.

Meanwhile, Annabelle, another of Earth's many orphans, has lived a mostly charmed life. That is if you don't count the fact that she's technically a prisoner. Drifting among the stars on Space Station Luna-the top-secret government lifeboat built to save Earth's ruling class-Annabelle has everything she needs and the woman she loves by her side.

But when Téa ends up at the space station, she unravels a web of deceptions that send both women reeling and make one thing perfectly clear: the secrets that connect Téa and Annabelle may be powerful enough to turn the tides of war, save the planet, and set the people free.
