Lifeformed 1

Cleo, orphaned in the wake of an alien invasion, left behind the life she knew to fight for the future of Earth.

Now she and Alex, the shapeshifting rebel alien posing as her father, make a fearsome team in a guerrilla war against the invaders. But Cleo's past is about to come back to haunt her: An adversary she thought she'd seen the last of is out for revenge, determined to ruin Cleo's life and destroy the trusting relationship Cleo has built with her alien "dad." Lifeformed: Hearts and Minds is the second installment in the sci-fi thriller series from Matt Mair Lowery and Cassie Anderson.

Matt Mair Lowery, a Portland native, studied journalism
and creative writing at the University of Oregon. He maintains (and sometimes tests) his sanity by nerding out with his two daughters, running through North Portland's industrial landscapes, and overanalyzing everything with his wife.
