Ravenna is as mysterious as she is powerful. As the leader of the Chosen Ones, Ravenna thought that she was safe and would be protected from the evils of her world. Until the day when the villagers sold her out to a group of Banda Nomaads. A group who was more than willing to sell Ravenna as a bride and use her brother to control her. Powers that Ravenna didn't even know she had seemed to be working in her favor. Night after night Ravenna enters the dreams of a faraway warrior, a soldier who Ravenna knows will be her savior.

Bronse Chapel has landed as Commander in the Interdisciplinary Militia. A group of warriors who patrol the planets to ensure the safety of all kind. When Bronse begins dreaming of a beautiful woman he begins to think that maybe he has endured one mission too many. But his dreams are becoming more real; he can smell her, he can touch her, and more importantly he can even taste the scorching kiss they share. Bronse knows that Ravenna is being tortured, that she is being held as a captive on a world where few survive. Can Bronse and his team get to her in time? Or will this next mission be the next in several attempts on his life that finally succeeds? Time is surely against them, the odds are even against them, and Bronse fears that losing Ravenna would be the one thing he cannot accept.

Aiding her saviors to her, Ravenna knows that escape is just the beginning of a long road. Her people, who have become her only family, are being persecuted for the powers that were once held as sacred. Each member has their own powers, each more powerful than they know. Yet Ravenna holds one secret close to her soul, a secret that could destroy everything she is and everything she knows in one single moment. Can she trust Bronse and his team to keep them safe? Can she trust the Interplanetary Militia not to use them as a tool for war? Can she trust her own feelings toward Bronse and still make decisions that may impact the very lives she is trying to save?

This remarkable new series was full of adventure, paranormal powers, and endless romance. The first in yet another stunning series, author Jacquelyn Frank has indeed made her mark in the futuristic world. I thought that the characters were solid and the story was masterfully written as only Ms. Frank can do. I thought that this book set up the characters for the rest of the series beautifully and I look forward to reading of the exploits and challenges that each of the Chosen Ones will go through in the books to come.
