Catherine Haustein

Lonely food developer Stella would like nothing better than to finally have a lab partner to help her create new synthetic products and share her passion for science. But her nation of Cochtonia has gone off the deep end. Fertility rates are dropping, and the autocratic male rulers have decided to turn to alchemy to produce offspring.

 Sir Isaac Newton has been resurrected from the dead to take a lead role in the impossible task, ordered by the autocracy. He is to work as a team to create a homunculus—a tiny person, made outside of a womb. Women won’t be needed at all!

 Being celibate in his previous life, Newton has never indulged in romance, but procreation without females sounds crazy even to him. When Stella offers to help him fake the results to save his neck, he’s more than willing.

 But is Newton the real thing or a genetically modified fake? As the pair collaborates, Stella becomes more and more uncertain. In proceeding with the deception, they find that chemistry isn’t limited to the laboratory. In a world where love and romance are punishable by law, mutual attraction could mean execution for them both.

Unstable States

Wrinkles in Spacetime

First in the electrifying series set in “a dystopian future that feels relatable and real … Wonderfully entertaining” (InD’tale).

When Catrina moves to Cochtonville to work as a chemist for Cochton Enterprises, she has no idea how dangerous her life is about to become. 

A chance meeting with Ulysses, owner of the Union Station bar, plunges her into a world of illegal condoms, vibrators, and art. As their loneliness draws them together, they become allies in what will become the fight of their lives in the sexually repressive and culturally backward dystopia.

Catrina’s invention, No Regrets—a scanner to test for pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections—brings increased scrutiny from the town’s Vice Patrol, made worse by an ambitious new agent who hangs around Union Station and takes up with Ulysses’s vindictive ex.

Catrina’s relationship with Ulysses and her company’s new products put them both in peril as she begins to understand the dark side of her employer, society, and science without humanity.

But science is all she’ll have to spare the men of Cochtonville a mortifying fate and to save the life of Ulysses.

Mixed In

The author of Mixed In returns to her “wonderfully unique dystopian setting … [in] a fast paced, sexy, drama that will keep the pages turning” (InD’tale).

Chemist Cali Van Winkle and genetically modified “Icon” Eve Whitehead compete as Team Beautiful and Damned for the opportunity of easier lives in their tightly controlled society, but their assignment is garbage—literally.

The women must find practical uses for Cochtonia’s putrid sewage lagoon, the WasteBin, a remote area where garbage and hog waste overrun everything. It’s a disgusting task until Cali and Eve discover something very rare living near the WasteBin: virile males.

Suddenly their assignment isn’t so rancid, and the very thought of experiencing true love becomes their motivation, but there’s far more to Crisper males, Remmer and Layal, than they’re willing to admit.

After all, the males are genetically modified erotic escorts.

When the men and women are separated by a strange chain of events, the women must focus on winning the competition and gaining the status that will allow them to be with their men—if they can find them.

“The author introduces an entertaining cast of characters, while warning us of what could be. ” —Lee Joanne Collins, author of Who Cares About You?
