About the Author
G.D. Griffiths currently lives in Redondo Beach, California, with his wife,
eleven-year-old son and, of course, Rhea, the insatiable German
Shepherd.
Originally from Wales, G.D. has always loved stories and creating worlds of
imagination. Having worked with children for a number of years, he observed
that their learning process was quicker when the subject was crafted within
some type of story. This is what led to this book.
When he’s not writing, he’ll either be out exploring with his
family, floating on his kayak seeking inspiration, or brushing the
relentless amount of dog hair from his clothes and furniture.

break.
Elite Sentinel Zara Thorne has dedicated her life to protecting Unity from
Splinter contamination in a world ravaged by climate change. But when her
body begins developing impossible abilities, she discovers the terrifying
truth: she carries the very modifications she was trained to
eliminate.
Forced to flee with her partner Trent Vanguard, the man she’s secretly
desired for years, Zara escapes into the wasteland. But safety comes with
betrayal when Trent reveals he’s known her true nature all along—their

Seeking refuge among those she once hunted, Zara meets Vex—a fiercely
modified Splinter who embodies everything Unity taught her to despise.
Everything Trent isn’t. Wild. Untamed. Dangerously alluring.
As her modifications accelerate and Unity closes in, Zara is caught between

deceiving her. One who challenges everything she’s ever believed.
The wasteland isn’t the only thing that’s toxic. So are secrets. And Zara’s
might change humanity’s future forever.

Hi! I’m Alicia LeFleur. I’ve been writing for most of my life, though I’ve
recently decided to lean into the romance genre. I believe in the magic of
happily ever afters and think they’re crucial in a time like this when
people need more light and hope in their lives. I also believe that romance
is healing, not only for the reader but for the writer as well. I hope my
stories will make you swoon while bringing you steamy entertainment in all
sorts of genres.

Introduction
On the large, fascinating island of Madagascar there live a plethora of
peculiar and exotic animals. Two of those animals are lemurs and sifakas.
Both creatures are small, monkey-like, and categorized as lemurs.
Sifakas are slightly larger and are most at-home in the treetops. Most
lemur species, however, prefer to spend the majority of their time on the
rainforest floor.
Isaiah the Ring-tailed Lemur
Isaiah is a ring-tailed lemur who spends most of his time on the
rainforest floor. Ever since he was a young boy, Isaiah has enjoyed running
and jumping over organic obstacles, swinging through trees with a
single paw, and dodging the lurking fossae inhabiting his mind’s eye. He
enjoys playing many games with his lifelong friend, Slick. Isaiah grows
anxious when he’s alone, especially in tight situations. He attributes this
to early memories having been lost in the forest for two days without
seeing a single one of his kind.
Slick the Sifaka
Slick the Sifaka is a lot like most male Coquerel’s sifakas his age.
He forages in the morning and at night looking for food (starting with
the pantry!) When outside his treehouse, he is claiming territory by
spraying or scratching a tree leaving a rather distinct and, yes, putrid
scent mark.
Slick is able to jump 15 tail lengths through the trees. He doesn’t
hesitate to use his athletic abilities to sneak around and spy on other
creatures–including Isaiah. In fact, the two frequently compete to see
who can spy on the other the longest without getting caught. Once
caught, the winner decides a punishment, usually involving minor
punches to the shoulder or a swift calf kick to the leg.
Slick enjoys spying on everybody, including the fossa brothers,
Broosa and Toulousa, notorious thieves who made random appearances
in their neck of the woods every season. To date, Slick has only caught
mere glimpses of the two ruffians plotting together, but never actually
catching them redhanded. Naive to the consequences of a face-to-face
encounter with any fossa, let alone Broosa and Tolousa, young Slick still
entertained the fantasy of being the kid who caught the most famous
thieves ever to inhabit Madagascar.
About the Author
I am B.K. Boshell, I research and sponge off my parents because $14 is
still the minimum in Florida. I am currently a sophomore in high school,
play varsity basketball, and enjoy spending time in nature. Writing is a
passion of mine.
My journey began at the age of nine with a summer experiment into writing
that evolved into a passion, which I pursued increasingly as the years
progressed. My writing process revolves around noise-cancelling headphones,
owl hours, a lot of paper, and a ballpoint pen. I draw my inspiration from
the myriad places of research I have found myself in over the years.
Creating characters and giving them life is incredibly fulfilling as you
channel personal experience, the experience of others, and stories of old
into forming something that you hope is compelling.
Truthfully, I want people to enjoy the book for what it is, but also learn
of the arcane and intriguing world that is Madagascar. Whether it be the
elephant birds that weighed up to one ton, or the merciless feline-esque
fossae, I want people to be thrilled about the bizarre and intriguing facts
the island has to offer.
