- [x]
Whispers of Eden offers a high-stakes blend of contemporary fantasy, romance, adventure, and hints of science fiction.
Twenty-five-year-old Valerie had it all: a loving family, a doting fiancé, and a stable career. Then a state-mandated ceremony exposed her as an ovinag: a social menace, doomed to evil. Assassins now stalk her every move.
As her execution date nears, Valerie uses her magic stealing ability to portal jump to Eden—a reclusive planet harboring legendary monsters. There she meets a man… with secrets of his own.
When ominous threats follow Valerie to Eden, her protector yearns to keep her safe. But burning the world would only breed more enemies.
Torn between survival, social upheaval, and saving other ovinags, Valerie must decide whom she can trust. She may not only doom everyone she holds dear, but put all of Eden at risk.

I can’t put my finger on it but it felt like something was missing. )
