“So an alien race of unknown origin, strength, and
power is coming our way. We’ve defeated them before but have no clue how we did
it and we all died in the process.” Seth gave two thumbs up. “Awesome.”
The final book in KG Stutts’ sci-fi romance trilogy, Mirror Reformed, launches today!
Blurb:
The ISC's most dangerous foe, the Synth, is threatening
Earth. Mack, Maddie, and their team scramble to come up with a plan to defeat
them one and for all. As the planet's safety is in jeopardy, the team will have
to put it all on the line, or give their lives in the process.
Excerpt:
“Because they’ve done it before, and this is the team
that stopped them.”
The team stared blankly at their former commander,
trying to comprehend his words. The statement echoed in Maddie’s mind, making
her hands shake.
“That’s insane,” Seth blurted out after several quiet
minutes.
“Remember my warning. What I said is hard to believe, but it’s the absolute truth.” Charlie looked unabashed at the group’s disbelief.
“Charlie, what’s going on?” Maddie asked.
“Most of you know the story of how the ISC was formed,” Elizabeth began.
“Right. A young Charlie created a communications device that reached the Isgurd,” Mack stated. “We formed our first alliance with them.”
“Correct. The rest of the story has been classified.”
“Rest of the story?” Maddie looked over at John who looked just as confused as she did.
“Remember my warning. What I said is hard to believe, but it’s the absolute truth.” Charlie looked unabashed at the group’s disbelief.
“Charlie, what’s going on?” Maddie asked.
“Most of you know the story of how the ISC was formed,” Elizabeth began.
“Right. A young Charlie created a communications device that reached the Isgurd,” Mack stated. “We formed our first alliance with them.”
“Correct. The rest of the story has been classified.”
“Rest of the story?” Maddie looked over at John who looked just as confused as she did.
Charlie pulled up a video on the monitor and pressed
play. The screen came to life as a young boy wearing wire-rimmed glasses and
sandy blond hair falling in his eyes smiled and cleared his throat.
“My name is Charles Westlake. I am thirteen years old
and I’m from Charleston, South Carolina. I created an intergalactic
communications device that made contact with an alien race known as the Isgurd.
I have recently been visited by a group of people from the year 2015. They came
here to prevent an aggressive alien race known as the Synth from killing me,
stopping my meeting with the leader of the Isgurd, Balise, and taking over
Earth. This group was led by Jackson Gray, but my main contacts were Maddie and
John Brooks. The team successfully defeated the Synth here in 1965. This
message is to be preserved in case the Synth returns.”
The team stared at the monitor long after the screen
went black.
“How … how did all this happen?” Mack finally broke
the silence. “Going back in time and fighting a race no one has heard of? I
mean, Charlie, honestly—”
“That’s not the pressing issue,” Maddie interjected sheepishly.
“Exactly, Maddie.” Charlie nodded. “We need to come up with a plan and fast.”
“That’s not the pressing issue,” Maddie interjected sheepishly.
“Exactly, Maddie.” Charlie nodded. “We need to come up with a plan and fast.”
Maddie turned bright red when Mack turned and glared at
her for the interruption. After a moment, though, Mack relaxed into a
reassuring smile.
“How much time do we have?” Jackson asked.
“Judging by current speed, they will be here in four days,” Elizabeth stated.
“Four days isn’t a lot of time,” John muttered.
“Charlie, you said we defeated them before.” Maddie chewed on the inside of her cheek. Charlie nodded. “How?”
“Judging by current speed, they will be here in four days,” Elizabeth stated.
“Four days isn’t a lot of time,” John muttered.
“Charlie, you said we defeated them before.” Maddie chewed on the inside of her cheek. Charlie nodded. “How?”
The former commander instantly broke eye contact,
looking down at the floor. Even Elizabeth wouldn’t meet her gaze.
“I see,” Maddie solemnly said.
“See what?” One of the guys, Chris, asked.
“None of us made it,” Seth replied.
“Ah.”
“Well, that’s certainly comforting,” Jackson gravely said.
“Do we have a plan?” Mack asked, shifting uncomfortably in her chair.
“See what?” One of the guys, Chris, asked.
“None of us made it,” Seth replied.
“Ah.”
“Well, that’s certainly comforting,” Jackson gravely said.
“Do we have a plan?” Mack asked, shifting uncomfortably in her chair.
Elizabeth and Charlie exchanged glances before turning
back to the group. The look on both of their faces made Maddie’s heart drop
into her stomach.
“Nothing? You’ve got nothing?” David sputtered out the
question.
“How did we do it before?” Chris asked.
“We’re … not sure,” Elizabeth admitted.
“How did we do it before?” Chris asked.
“We’re … not sure,” Elizabeth admitted.
