The setting for this sequel to RAVYN'S FLIGHT is the Old
City on Planet Jarved Nine in the year 2043. Capt. Kendall
Thomas has discovered that valuable relics from the ancient
pyramid in the alien city are being stolen. Suspecting the
person in charge of the archeological teams is the culprit,
she's secretly trying to get the information she needs to
prove it. At the same time, Kendall is dealing with a
terrible dream that keeps recurring, but that she can't
recall, except for all the blood. She just wishes her
closest friend, Captain Wyatt Montgomery, was on planet so
she could confide in him. Even though he's with Western
Alliance Army Special Operations with lots of field
experience and she just sits at a computer entering data,
she doesn't want to get him involved until she knows for
sure what's going on.
When Wyatt returns, she doesn't tell him she's going to
gather more evidence by searching the pyramid. However, he
knows Kendall is hiding something and follows her. Once
inside the pyramid, Wyatt and Kendall become trapped as the
smugglers chase them through the endless labyrinth of
tunnels and secret passageways. As they're pursued by the
bad guys, hours turn into days, and the harrowing time they
spend together in close proximity makes them realize their
close friendship is really so much more than that. Their
feelings of love can no longer be denied. And the unusual
dreams that each of them have been experiencing must be
faced and dealt with if they are to survive.
Though this book is billed as a loosely linked sequel to
RAVYN'S FLIGHT (being reissued this month), I strongly
suggest you read that book first to get the full impact of
this one. Past characters are revisited and play a pivotal
role in the culmination of the plot, so I feel you should
know their stories. This is a fast-paced, dynamic
futuristic romance with compelling characters and a great
plot. Enjoy!
Capt. Kendall Thomas has been plagued by dreams of blood,
dreams so horrifying they leave her trembling in the
night. Kendall has good reason to be afraid. She's
discovered thieves are stealing artifacts from the alien
city on Jarved Nine, and the smugglers will do anything to
protect their lucrative sideline—even commit murder.
The last man Kendall wanted to endanger was her best
friend Wyatt Montgomery, but the stubborn Special Ops
captain followed her when she went to gather evidence, and
the smugglers trapped them both in the city's ancient
pyramid. Now by day, they're chased through labyrinthine
tunnels, deeper and deeper into the heart of the ancient
temple. But in the cloak of darkness, they can no longer
deny the powerful force drawing them together, the
passionate dreams that leave them aching with need, the
touch of skin on skin that makes them long for—ETERNAL
NIGHTS.
