Dr. Cass Baros is haunted by dreams of an alien world... ...and will do anything to find it. Relentlessly, she works her science team--along with her co-project leader and fiance, Dr. Julian Saunders--in order to create the first lab-contained wormhole. Their boss, Dr. Janson, has a secret agenda. He adds a military contingent, which expands their six person team to twelve and increases tensions between the members. Egos will clash, agendas will cross, and their worlds will be undone as they travel through the wormhole. The team, unable to return home and facing numerous dangers--conflicting desires, burning suns, cannibalistic monsters--is plunged into an adventure beyond their control. They struggle to unravel millennia old secrets in an alien world where nothing is what it seems. While Captain Lewis' leadership strengthens, Cass deals with her destiny as the brajj queen, and the brajj, Jeamon, questions his lifelong beliefs and loyalties. Cass and her team wrestle with her royal status to the brajj, while being tossed between love and betrayal, genius and madness, and a jealousy frightening enough to cause the destruction of worlds. *Rated Mature 18+* Science Fiction/Romance/Adventure/Aliens, zombies, romance, some time slipping and a wormhole all wrapped up in a mystery (Serious sci-fi with a mature romance, violence, language, and some gore--this is not a fluffy bunny) Consistently in the paid top 100 sub-genres of time travel, genetic engineering, and metaphysical & visionary science fiction 8/2013-11/2013"
