Planet Earth is failing. Global warfare and asteroid bombardment have left the planet devastated... perhaps beyond repair. Now a small group of terra-formers have just seven years to rebuild Earth's ecosystems. Failure means exclusion from the Federation; without the Federation's assistance Earth is condemned to death. Adam, an Earth biologist, and Evan, a scientist from the Mars Colony, find it impossible to resist the passion that draws them together. Yet despite their attraction, they must struggle to overcome their prejudices and mutual mistrust in order to work together. A new asteroid strike leaves them stranded—with Earth's hope for the future resting on their shoulders. A science fiction thriller and a tender love story, Adam and Evan is the first in the series Paradise Earth.
