Part of Series
Humans are not at the top of the food chain. While a few brave humans are ready to fight to regain their freedom from their alien conquerors, the future of the human race falls on Khara, a woman who doesn't give a damn about their cause or freedom. It's aliens against humans and humans are losing the battle. Or are they? Nestra – the alien Queen’s Shame Receptor – struggles with loyalty to her Queen. As the humans plot revolution, the alien Queen’s madness creates a rift between infected and uninfected aliens. Will the forbidden friendship that develops between Khara and Nestra show them all a new way – coexistence? Or will the human race finally be eliminated once and for all? This gritty alien invasion story is told from both human and alien points of view, a la C.J. Cherryh, and puts a new twist on the idea of “first contact.”
Author
Davyne is the author of the Phantom Rising Series – a trio of historical romances which continue the saga of the Phantom of the Opera – as well as a science fiction novel, Carapace, and an anthology of speculative fiction short stories, Soap Bubble Dreams and Other Distortions. Her newest release is Love Whispers Through the Veil, a sweet paranormal ghost romance. Davyne’s writing focuses on strong characterization, a sense of adventure, and emotional impact, reflecting her own passionate view on life. She draws from positive experiences in her life (going on safari, being in a television commercial, becoming a lifeguard) and more painful ones (being kidnapped as a child at knife-point [promptly rescued by Dad!], breaking her arms falling 60 feet off a cliff, breaking her neck at the senior prom) to realistically craft her characters, both good and evil. Davyne grew up traveling the world with her diplomat parents, and has lived in Germany, Bolivia, Somalia, Afghanistan, Japan, and Korea. After several academic and career choices (including computer programming and fine art photography!), she finally settled into the law and was an attorney for over twenty years, although writing has always been her first true love. The list of things she loves is long and includes her family (she survived having five teenagers at one time!), Christmas, cooking, laughing, being an introvert (despite her propensity to arm-waving when excited about a topic), intriguing mouths, sneezing and – of course – reading. Her list of dislikes is relatively small: bigots, hypocrites and mean people. Oh, and lima beans. She lives with her husband in their Colorado home and in Mexico. Want to know more?
