What Was Lost by Melissa Connelly

When a young girl feels complicit in her own abuse, how does that thwart her attempts to build a happy life as an adult woman? Disturbing memories begin to surface for Marti and so she returns to the small Vermont town she ran away from thirty years ago to face her demons. She drags her unwitting and unwilling teenage daughter along on the journey heightening already existing tensions between them. But Marti is determined to achieve what she’s returned home for: forgiveness for lies told, and revenge for secrets held. Exploring the vast social change from 1970 to 2000, in times before language such as #MeToo helped give voice to these all-too-common occurrences, What Was Lost is a raw, powerful tale of one woman confronting the ghosts of her past.

Onslaught by Bowen Greenwood

Exiled mutants and mind-controlling telepaths invade Human Space. Langston Wheeler is the only thing standing in their way. The Union of Human Space sent Langston on a simple mission: Hunt down a potential threat and neutralize it. But the threat is worse than anyone imagined. War is coming, and the peaceful merchant world known as Felicitas is woefully unprepared. Wheeler must survive the invasion and warn the Union that their centuries of peace are at an end. He has a past, though, and the leader of the Felicitan people makes overcoming it that much harder. As the Executive of Felicitas, Tia Dynn glides through a wealthy society that doesn't even remember war. When ravenous pig-human hybrids and mind-controlling telepaths blitzkrieg her planet, Tia leaves cocktail parties and poll numbers behind to become a true leader. Rival political factions make it harder, though, and so does the handsome stranger from off world. The only official path into orbit costs a fortune. Ray Pilak can get there for half the price, if the buyer doesn't mind the risk of arrest. His dicey relationship with the law is the main reason he's not involved with Tia Dynn anymore. When the war breaks out, though, suddenly a pilot who can dodge the powers that be looks a lot more valuable. Ray must grow into more than a smuggler if Felicitas is to have any hope at all. The three of them will discover what they really value, what they're willing to sacrifice, and who they really are. Human Space is at war for the first time in hundreds of years, and only Langston, Tia and Ray have any hope of stopping it. The Exile War series is 100% complete, with seven main books and a prequel novella.
