    DUCHESS 
     
     
     
    I always wanted to have a big family. That's why I created my own. My husband is my heart. My mom is my ribs. My kids . . . They are the air I breathe. Without them, I'm not whole. Everyone has dark secrets, yet mine are the kind of life-altering skeletons that could threaten the very mission I've spent my entire life fighting. My children think they know my story, but they don't. Not all of it. Not the parts that would make them question everything they know in life. My constant has been my love for Stan and that's a truth I'll always share. 
     
     
     
    STANLEY 
     
     
     
    I would move heaven and earth for my family. Yet, for Duchess, I wouldn't hesitate to give my life and soul in exchange for her to continue to grow the Crowne legacy. She may have taken my last name, but she made it worth more than I ever could have imagined. Years ago, I vowed to spend eternity fighting by her side for missions close to our hearts. Our children think they know our story, but they don't. We had a life before them. One many aren't aware of. My love for Duchess has only gotten stronger, but now it seems the past has caught up with the present.

    Nicole and her friends are living the dream. No dull, tedious retirement for them - instead the nine friends have clubbed together to purchase a magnificent (if crumbling) château in Normandy. And after three years of shared dinners, fine wine and gorgeous scenery, they have finally settled into a routine. True, not everything has gone to plan. They're one older resident down - and several younger residents up. Will and Fizz's new baby, Louis, fills the house with life, and Nicole's daughter Maddie and her family have been welcomed into the fold. But money for the upkeep of the château soon runs low and the make-shift family need to come up with a plan to keep their dream on track. They decide to set up as a B&B and soon the arrival of visitors brings a welcome new dynamic to their community. One particular guest, the charming and intriguing artist Apolline, draws them all in - with unexpected consequences. How long can they keep living la vie en rose?  And will fresh starts bring new drama in life and love?

    They told us "No." 
     
     
     
    If they had taken the time to learn about us, to truly understand what it was that made us human, they would've known that that had been their greatest mistake. 
     
     
     
    Sixty-seven years ago the Qash'vo'tar conquered Earth. Ever since then, the aliens had ruled from above. The Qash'vo'tar did not care what humanity did on the ground, as long as they didn't attempt to build anything that could get them to the stars. 
     
     
     
    Instead of the stars, humanity explored the oceans, burrowed deep underground, and broadened its understanding of laws of physics. Until finally they could take no more. In secret the United Earth's best scientists attempted to find a way out. Deep underground, they created a portal to another universe. 
     
     
     
    They made a breach to a universe where there was magic. This new universe changed them, changed their own universe. This one accident gave them a new weapon against the Qash'vo'tar. And they studied it, integrated it with their technology, and they waited for the right time to strike back against their alien overlords. 
     
     
     
    And now, sixty-seven years after they had been conquered, it was time for humanity to show the Qash'vo'tar that they had been right to fear humanity.
