    On a honeymoon two is company and three is a crowd. 
    Five is ridiculous. 
    After their wedding--and the Ice Dame's high-handed exploitation of the event--Triana and O'Neill embark on their honeymoon, only to find they’ve been booked on a CelebVid cruise to Armstrong with Vanti, Elodie, and Leo. 
    When the jump to Armstrong throws Triana and O'Neill into an alternate reality, they must outsmart the multi-verse versions of their friends, a lunatic professor and his corporate sponsor, and a cargo hold full of egg-throwing rodents if they hope to return to their own lives. 
    How will they do it? With spectacular, Space Janitor style, of course. 
    Come along for a Space Janitor twist on a classic alternate reality story. While you will likely enjoy this one without reading the rest of the series first, you'll have more fun if you get to know the characters in books 1 though 3. And even better if you've read the original Space Janitor series.

    It's not a pyramid scheme. It's an opportunity—for revenge. 
    Victoria Sterling is living her dream life in Splendor Springs, where Mormons, mommy bloggers, and MLMs reign supreme. The flawless influencer only needs one more recruit to reach the top of Puremetics, but when she targets Anna Price, she unknowingly threatens her picture-perfect life. 
    That's because a mistyped address sends down-on-her-luck Anna to the wrong house, crashing a meeting of the OWLS—an unlikely group of silver-haired activists. The rebel women convince Anna to enroll in Vicky's downline and help take down Puremetics from the inside. 
    As their worlds collide, the cracks from Vicky's past become too large to ignore. With each shattering revelation, she wonders if she can maintain the shiny facade upholding her business empire or if taking down her corrupt boss is worth risking it all. 
    With plenty of heart and humor, Splendid Little Schemes is a sharp and entertaining tale of ambition, friendship, and redemption.
