Rescue Me: A Short Story
The following short story features heavy topics that can be extremely triggering. Please review the trigger warning list before proceeding. If you or someone you know is struggling, I recommend using 988 Lifeline, a free and anonymous service available in the United States where people are available via call/chat/text 24/7/365 to support you. They also have services for those with hearing loss. It's always okay to ask for help.
Mental Health and Suicide
Anxiety & Anxiety Attacks, Depression, Intrusive thoughts, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Suicidal Ideation.
Animal Death and Cruelty
Animal Cruelty & Abuse, Stressful Shelter Environments, High-Kill Shelters, Animal Abandonment, and Animal Suffering.
The Home for Wayward Creatures
The Home for Wayward Creatures is a space romantasy with a light-light/medium spice level. Because of the advanced themes (animal welfare, kidnapping, sexual content) it would be Rated R, but if you have read my books before, I can tell you this is the lightest and least dark, by far.
The spice is also built so that the scene can be skipped over, if you desire or if you’re reading it with a teen and want to omit. It adds to the story but is not necessary.
Below are some possible triggers you will come across in the book. Please review them before reading but know many of them revolve around/involve aliens.
Hate, Discrimination & Oppression
Classism, Speciesism, Sexism & Misogyny, Alien Slavery & Indentured Servitude, Prison/Prisoner Scenarios.
Sexual & Romantic
Age Gap, Slow Burn, One Bed on The Spaceship, He Falls First, Yearning, Making Out, Fingering, Vaginal Penetration, and Talking Her Through It.
Mental Health
Anxiety & Anxiety Attacks, ADHD, Panic Attacks, and Grief.
Blood, Injury & Medical
Minor gore depiction, Physical Injuries, Scars, Dehydration.
Death & Loss
Death of a Parent & Guardian, Grief & Loss Depiction.
Violence & Crime
Blackmail, Captivity & confinement, Explosions, Fire & Arson, Imprisonment & Incarceration, Interrogation, Knife & Gun Violence, Attempted Murder.
War and Genocide
Colonialism, Imperialism, and War themes & Military Violence.

Animal Attack, Animal Cruelty & Abuse, Animal Illness & Injury, Animal Testing & Experimentation, and Animal Auctions.
