Summary
My name is Ava Mendoza, and I am a species traitor.
They came hoping to find a new home after their own planet was destroyed, but Earth was dying as well, and most humans saw their arrival as an invasion. Now, two decades later, the Veilorians have been banished to the District, a fenced-in area on the outskirts of the last known livable land on Earth. Most people do their best to pretend they don’t exist, but not everyone. There are humans, like my cousin, who see them for what they are. Despite the threat of disownment, she married a Veilorian, and now she, too, lives in the District.
Even before I met Finn, I was determined to stand up for what was right, but from the moment I laid eyes on him, we had a connection I’ve never experienced before. But with the election of a new and radical mayor on the horizon, tensions are high, and people are calling for change. They want to make my cousin’s marriage illegal and punish any human who goes into the District, but I refuse to back down from this fight. No matter the cost.

Star-Crossed & Earth Bound- totally heaven sent!
I received this book via a promo code and this is my voluntary review.
Having recently completed the Outliers series which is also based in this Universe I was excited to catch up with another group of heroes from Sovereigns lost twin city, Polis. Here we join Ava, Ione, and Finn and her cities slow creep towards annihilating the alien refugees from Veil even at the cost of their own demise.
Not a fan of Apocalypse/Dystopian genres??? This is more like a Science Fiction. If you liked Syfy's Defiance or the Netflix show Star-Crossed you are going to LOVE this series.
It's the end of the world and they know it but the main trait that humans seem to have clung to through the centuries is their fear, hate and prejudice.
Ione has just married an alien, even at the risk she knows means she will be disowned by her parents, and means her new life will be spent in imprisonment in the District with Rye. Ava refuses to abandon her cousin, despite the growing civil unrest but this story is kicked into high gear when the political powers change and do everything they can to make Ione's marriage illegal, and the mixed Veilorian&human children are Veronica Water's biggest fear, that humans, given their declining birthrates and ill health from radiation, small genetic population and limited space, will be outbred by these alien visitors. The fear of outsiders is something we know only too well, and instead of immigrants or people of another race, in this tale they are children from a different solar system. Thankfully Ava does not share their views, despite that she still finds herself facing opposition from within the District as half-human Veilorian Finn does not like humans, and dislikes his cousin's marriage to Ione. His attraction to Ava, takes them both by surprise. Torn between human District Guard Dean, and her growing feelings for Finn, Ava knows the time is coming soon for her to choose a side. Secrets revealed about her family history reveals that she's got more skin in this game than she ever imagined before. Her father had been branded a species traitor long before she looked into Finns Citrine eyes and felt her heart skip a beat.
I won't go into much more detail but this book was soooo good I immediately purchased the ebook boxset so I could read Species Savior.
Heather Firth and Kate L Mary are a magic combo that could keep me lost in imaginary worlds for weeks.

Chilling and exciting
This book took my breath away, and had me on the edge of my seat. The idea of a politician manipulating the masses through scare mongering and false news is nothing new, but chilling and terrifying and a great plot basis, it had me cheering the under dog on! FMC Ava was incredibly strong and brave, willing to stand up for what she believes, despite her hard home life, she is the perfect match for Finn, letting him see there is more to life than hate. What a cliff hanger to leave the book on, it had me desperate for the next book to see what will happen to Ava and the Veilorians, Heather Firths narration was great. I received this book in exchange for my honest review.

Dystopian Triller
Wow that was riveting and heart wrenching as well. If the world becomes that jaded to other life then I hope that I’m not still alive😬. Amazing writing and narration was fantastic as well. There is one heck of a cliffhanger and I hope book two is coming to audio soon! If dystopian books are your genre then you definitely need to hear this audiobook. The feelings going through me are all jumbled, all I can say is wow, this would make a fantastic movie! I was lucky enough to be gifted a copy of this audiobook and this is my honest opinion of the book. Heather Firth rocks this audiobook!
