When Macy Shaw met the enigmatic Narcifer, she was certain Cupid fired his bow straight at them. After all, Narcifer is attentive, loving, sexy and, best of all, fantastic between the sheets.

But as they embark on an intense affair, Macy realises that Narcifer’s Jelvian ancestry poses a risk, especially as the rest of humanity sees Jelvias as an inferior species and nothing more than something that needs to be extinguished.

So, this leaves Macy in a difficult position.

But she’s a journalist, right?

She can write favourable articles to change people’s minds.

But as trouble and ‘accidents’ happen, Macy is forced to confront the frightening truth.

Is Narcifer the man of her dreams – or the venomous Jelvia of her nightmares?

There are six books in the Jelvia: Not Human series. The series is told over a year of Macy’s life, where she starts her journey as a naive 24-year-old but ends up having the world’s future on her shoulders.

This is a sci-fi series where humans unknowingly coexist with the Jelvias—a powerful alien race exiled to Earth with a mission to cleanse their home of the unwanted. Disease-resistant, imposing, and venomous, the Jelvias embedded themselves into our world.

It was meant as a quiet takeover, but a fractured command system leaves the Jelvias believing they belong here, sparking a conflict that engulfs both species.

In this thrilling saga, each character—Macy, a journalist drawn into a dangerous romance; Courtney, whose fears become entangled with an alien's obsession; and Phil, a fervent activist forced to confront her own beliefs—finds themselves on the frontlines of an emerging war. Their intertwined fates lead to a final battle that could upend human existence or redefine it.

Across love, betrayal, and survival, Jelvia: Not Human explores what happens when humanity no longer holds its own in a world transformed.
