Black Ops Lieutenant Maddox Larsen is missing. Not only is he missing, his entire team is missing. Their reality has been yanked from beneath them, replaced with a sadistic, twisted doctor eager to find just what the limitations of a soldier’s body and mind are. Unfortunately, Maddox and his men are not alone, there are others like them locked in this nightmarish facility. They barely survive torture, abuse, and drug induced changes of their DNA. Their needs have become simple: Food, Fight, Fornicate. Maddox exceeds all expectations and becomes the model by which all other males in the facility are measured. These males are no longer men, or even human for that matter. They are Variant. But now they’re free, and they’re angry. Their target? Those who made them what they are today.
Nina struggled most of her adult life just to survive. She made the fateful decision to marry her high school sweetheart right after graduation — now she’s his favorite punching bag. He interrupts her when she finally seizes a chance to run from him, and almost kills her. She loses consciousness, awakening to a nightmare worse than she ever imagined. She’s at the mercy of five predatory, aggressive males, all locked in a prison cell with her. Sold to a medical facility as a reward for their test subjects for good behavior, her hell has only just begun. Eventually the most volatile of them claims her, giving her a slight reprieve. But then he disappears, leaving her in the hands of all the others. He better hope he’s dead, because now she’s free and if she discovers he intentionally left her behind, her wrath will make the monster that created them seem like their best friend.
Warning: If you have any triggers at all, please do not buy this book. This book shows the violence and abuse required to turn highly trained soldiers into killing machines with no thought of right and wrong. This book shows the plight of the women who are given to them as ‘rewards’ for good behavior. While the first few chapters are dark, this story ultimately becomes a tale of survival, revenge, and ultimately love, that will always eventually overcome all.
They were soldiers, elevated to the point of being weaponized. They were beyond compare in all manner of warfare, and that was their only reason for living. With each passing day, they lost more and more of the individuals they once were. Technically, they could still be considered human, but they were now on that cusp of having just enough of their DNA tweaked, that they could possibly fall into the non-human category. Their needs were animalistic now — sleep, eat, fight and fornicate.
They’d become ‘other’, with no exact description to define what they were. They were simply… Variant.
My name is Sandra R Neeley. I write Paranormal, SciFi, and Fantasy Romances. I’ve had stories and fictional characters wandering around in my head for as long as I can remember. I started letting them out into the real world and surprisingly, people loved them. I’m a Self-Published Author, and I like it that way because I can decide what and when to write. I’m by no means a formal, polished, properly structured individual and neither are my stories, but they’ll always leave you with a smile – happily ever after guaranteed. A bit of a warning though, there are some “triggers” in them that certain people should avoid. I’m a firm believer that you cannot have light without the dark. You cannot fully embrace the joy and elation that my people eventually find if you don’t bear witness to their darkest hours as well. So please be sure to read the warnings supplied with each of the synopses about my books before you buy them. I’m always happy to hear from readers, so please feel free to look me up and let me know what you think about whichever of my worlds you choose to lose yourself in.
