STONE
About
He was supposed to die.
She was sent to save the future.
Neither expected to fall.
Lieutenant Sunny Blake isn’t just fighting a war—she’s leading from the front lines.
In a future where humanity is losing to a brutal alien invasion, Sunny has survived through skill, grit, and sheer refusal to break.
When a device capable of bending time is discovered, she’s chosen for the most dangerous mission of all—travel into the past and bring back a warrior strong enough to help save the future.
She finds him in his final moments.
Jefferson W. Stone is out of ammunition, surrounded, and seconds from death… until Sunny appears and pulls him out of time itself.
Now he’s trapped in a future on the brink of extinction.
He’s given a choice:
Return to his time and die…
Or stay and fight beside the woman who saved him.
But Sunny isn’t someone who needs saving.
She’s a warrior. A leader. A survivor.
And the longer Stone fights at her side, the more he realizes—she’s the one battle he might not win.
Because in a war where humanity is on the edge of annihilation…falling for her could be the most dangerous risk of all.
Praise for this book
I love a good sci-fi movie, but reading this genre...
I didn't know what to expect when I started reading Stone by Mardi Maxwell, I love a good sci- fi movie but reading this genre is very new to me. I have to say that I was very pleasantly surprised with how much I really enjoyed this book.With the invasion of Aliens the world has been wiped out of men and it is up to the woman to find a way to go back in time and retrieve the strongest of men to help fight the aliens and to keep the human race from dying out. Lieutenant Sunny Blake is first to retrieve one of the strongest soldiers there is and that is Lieutenant Jefferson W. Stone, who Sunny has studied from top to bottom. Sunny is the strongest woman that can handle her own on the battlefield but when it comes to Stone, he will infuriate her, break her and wake every sensual feeling she has ever had. Will Sunny be able to handle a man who was known to get around with the ladies in his time? He has a past that could be written in a book.
Jefferson W. Stone the last he knew of himself was that he was on the battlefield in the year 2125. Now he finds himself surrounded by woman, Stone couldn't be happier until he finds out what has happened to Earth. He realizes he is needed and will do everything he can to help the woman survive and find a way to bring back other strong soldiers like him. Stone has a mind set of not falling in love cause that only weakens a soldier, he never expected a woman like Sunny as much as he tries to push her away, he finds it hard to think of her with any other soldier that will be joining them. Will Stone be able to fight side by side with Sunny and not let his feelings get in the way?
Writing this review gets me all giddy cause I really enjoyed these characters. Mardi Maxwell added a perfect mixture of humor, sexiness, sci-fi, suspense and romance that made Stone perfect for me to read. For a sci-fi story it seemed to touch every emotion in me.
