How about a RomantaSci Dystopian Duology?

Divergent meets Star Wars in Qilanna Quinn's hold-your-heart United Planetary Systems Gemma Duology. An emotionally-driven sci-fi romance perfect for readers who crave intense action, twists that leave you breathless, and a love that refuses to let go.

To Avenge a Fallen Star

On the harsh red planet of Reva, freedom is earned the hard way. For the descendants of exiled criminals, there is only one escape: survive the Oranos Trials and earn a life beyond the planet that was never meant to be home. Gemma Proctor has spent three years waiting for her chance. Three years since her sister passed the Trials—and was murdered the very next day.

Now, it’s Gemma’s turn. Her goal is simple: Survive the Trials, get close to the man responsible, and make him pay. But nothing about the Trials is what she expected. Not the alliances she’s forced to make. Not the secrets buried beneath the surface. And not Christian—the one person who makes her hesitate when she can’t afford to.

Because the deeper Gemma goes, the more everything begins to unravel. The truth. Her mission. Herself. And the only person who might be able to reach her is the one she was never supposed to love.

To Save a Broken Nebula

Six weeks after the battle at Zion, Gemma Proctor is alive but not untouched. The implant in her spine is the only thing holding the change inside her at bay—and it’s failing. Desperate for answers, Gemma returns to the alien temple that started it all. But what she finds there isn’t a cure. It’s something far worse. Because whatever is inside her isn’t just spreading. It’s evolving.

While Gemma fights to hold onto herself, Christian is sent back into the depths of Perileos to hunt down what remains of the Dissent—and the leader now rising in its wake. But the deeper he goes, the more his past begins to close in. And by the time he makes it back to Zion, everything has changed. Gemma is no longer just a survivor. She’s a target.

Now forced into hiding among former enemies, Gemma and Christian are running out of time. Because the more her power grows, the less control she has. And the next time she loses it, she may not be able to come back. Not to herself. Not to him.

With the fate of an entire city hanging in the balance, Gemma is left with one impossible choice: hold onto what remains of her humanity. . . or become the very thing that could save them all.
