Roast Battle Lines

"How far will you go to save the only home you've ever known?" Tyson never wanted to be a hero! But on his 20th birthday, everything changed. A Meta-bot chose him—fusing with his body, wrapping him in powerful armor, and throwing him into a war far beyond his control. "You are now a Ranger. Fight, survive, or let Earth die." Edward said, "And remember, you don’t choose Meta-bot. It chooses you. And when it does… your life is no longer your own, Tyson" The rules are straightforward. Every few years, the intergalactic tournament commences. Earth gains additional time by successfully navigating the stages. Billions of lives hang in the balance while the battles are broadcast live—nothing more than a twisted form of entertainment for some godlike beings. "You’re not ready for this, Tyson. You’ll get yourself killed." As if fighting for survival wasn’t enough, Tyson must prove himself worthy of the Roger family name, fix his fractured bond with his adopted brother, and navigate his growing feelings for a girl he never expected to fall for—the daughter of a fallen General. But time is running out. "You think this war cares about what you want?" "No, it never has. It never will," a voice whispered. "It’s on you, kid. If you want to survive, then fight for it." ------ This novel blends sci-fi and fantasy, featuring a 'weak to strong' progression.

* At night He was rugged and untamed. That one steamy night left Grace utterly captivated. She coyly stretched out her dainty, snow-white feet, hooking them around his waist as she softly laid down her terms: For the first time, no staying overnight. The second time, the moment he got himself a significant other, she'd vanish from his side. Later on, their liaison would remain strictly on a physical level. No strings of money attached, no emotional fetters, just the most primal and unadulterated desires that flared up when night fell, entwining them like a web spun by countless spiders.

He extended his hand to her with a polite smile, “Hello, Grace.” Grace gritted her teeth in secret dismay. She hastened to call off whatever was brewing between them, only to find herself cornered against the dressing room by the man, with no way out. In that cramped space, he was a relentless predator, and she, his irresistible quarry. His firmness pressed against her soft curves, setting every inch ablaze. Outside the door, her female colleagues were swooning over his chiseled abs. Just a thin partition away, he locked his arm around her willowy waist, seized her delicate hand, and guided it to rest on his taut abdomen, his voice dripping with a sultry allure, “Thought you could slip away? It's far too late for that.”

"Shall I tell you a little secret? But I have to warn you, you won't like it." No one likes spoilers, therefore, I present this to you. "Is it a book filled with spoilers or a book specifically about spoilers?" Read between the lines, that is what you do when you are eager to find out. To figure out a secret, to interpret and keep note of what there is to come. "It is kind of like that, but I would rather refer to it as a compilation or a series." "Or an outline, a note, reminder for what'll end up happening, whatever sounds right to you." A story that has only one plot, universe, and meaning is not how you would describe this one. Spoiler though, you'll never be satisfied. /Extra/ "One more thing... None of this is real. Unless you know what exactly is going on."
