The decendats of original colonist on St. Helens evolved with two kinds of powers "prisms" and "talents". And each set needs the help of the other to truly utalize there powers to there full eztent. Which is why Lucas Trent has contracted Amaryllis Lark to act as a prism to his detector talent as he tries and uncover why a VP in his Lodestar Exploration company is selling cooperate information. Amaryllis Lark is cool, prim, and proper prism who's recent departure from the academic world cause no end of frustration for Lucas. Escpecially as she begins to investigate her own case of ethical fraud and death of her mentor. As the two become more and more involved in the investigation, it becomes clear that their off the chart abilities we're not the only thing they have in common in their passionate relationship. This book was originally published in 1996 and recently rereleased with a new cover. The book is a great read. But you can tell that it has extremely similar tones as her other futuristic romance novel series. I was happy to see it rereleased. It's one that sits on my "good reads" shelf and now on in my digital library.

I give it:


By the way did you know that JAYNE ANN KRENTZ (her married name) writes contemporary romantic-suspense, she then uses AMANDA QUICK for her novels of historical romantic-suspense, and finally she uses JAYNE CASTLE (her birth name) for futuristic/paranormal romantic-suspense.
