He had no name until she gave him one. Elios has existed for eons,
yet he has never lived. As a Solean Observer, his latest assignment
is to study human nature. When Earth reaches its final days, he
will be the one judging whether humanity's memory deserves to be
preserved. This is not his first mission, and he is confident that
he will make Lex, his Ancestor Guide, proud once again. Then, in
Athens, Elios locks eyes with Gaia, and for the first time in his
long life, he develops feelings he doesn't have a name for. An
impulse stronger than any he has ever felt will drive him to follow
Gaia first to Rome, where she lives, and then across the ocean to
the United States when she goes to study abroad. In Seattle, unable
to fight his sentiments any longer, Elios finally approaches Gaia.
What starts as an innocent desire to talk to her just once, soon
becomes a fire Elios can't quench. And yet, bound by his oath as an
Observer, he can't have any physical contact with her. Struggling
between his duties to Solo, the planet that gave him birth, and
Gaia, who has become the only reason for his existence, Elios must
decide. But fate, in the form of an archeological finding
discovered inside an Etruscan tomb, decides for him and Gaia,
separating them. Although Elios is a companion novel to Gaia, they
can be read in either order. They are both stand-alone stories from
different points of view. You met Gaia and Elios in her book; now
hear his story.

While vacationing in Greece, Gaia locks eyes with a stranger,
twice. Two years later, back in Rome, she should be enjoying
college life; instead, the memories of his lapis lazuli eyes and
Mona Lisa smile still haunt her. Gaia longs to meet him again and
unwittingly sabotages her romantic life by refusing to move on.
Only her anthropological studies about the mysterious Etruscans
make her feel alive. A chance to breathe new air is presented to
her when she wins a full scholarship to study abroad at the
University of Washington. In rainy Seattle, Gaia finally meets the
man of her dreams, but he proves to be... otherworldly. Meanwhile,
in her field of studies, what starts as an interesting
archeological finding about a six-fingered human image, soon
evolves into the discovery of the millennium, but not where Earth
is concerned. Although Gaia is a companion novel of Elios, you can
read these in either order. They are both stand-alone stories from
different points of view. You met Gaia and Elios in his book; now
hear her story.
The City of Men has been destroyed. The pure breeds want him dead.
Prince is still running for his life. This time, he's not alone.
Pax and the rest of the survivors count on him to keep them alive
in the unforgiving desert. Pursued by the heartless Priestess and
the President of Ginecea, Prince and Pax fight to find a haven for
their unborn child. He knows the two women won't stop at anything
to achieve their goal. But he can't fathom the true reasons behind
their motives. Ginecea wants the heads of anyone who helped the
fugitive men and nobody is safe. Not even the fathered women,
slaughtered by a Priestess crazed by hate. The world is in an
uproar and Pax and Prince stand in the eye of the storm. Prince at
War is the third book in The Ginecean Chronicles, a series set in
the dystopian world of Ginecea where women rule over enslaved men,
and heterosexual love is the ultimate sin.
