Description
How could the romantic dreams of a lonely teenage girl possibly tip the stakes in the harsh reality of a billion-year intergalactic hunting spree?
Lured by an exciting life of adventure beyond eat-sleep-spend-repeat Francine runs away from home to a new world beyond an alien portal. There she meets another runaway, Jalaeka; handsome, dashing, smart. To her it seems like a match made in heaven for two renegades starting a new life together.
But he has a very long past, much of it not even human, and most of it spent escaping the relentless pursuit of Unity, a godlike being, who will stop at nothing to destroy him and end his insurrection.
Even their meeting was no accident. Francine is bait; the last in a line of dreamers who have been put in the right place at the right time to pull Jalaeka out of the metaphysical and into the real, in the image of her perfect date. She's whimsical. Sensitive. The kind of creator who ought to make someone sweet, empathic and kind - boy-band material, not a match for a world-ending monster.
But some girls dream big.
