Synopsis
LAPD Detective Sean Hennessey has one person he’s repeatedly tried to arrest and bring to justice: his nemesis, Mitchell Yates.Yates has been in and out of trouble for years, always skating around the edges of LA’s underbelly; however, Sean can never pin anything on him.
But one night all of that changes.
Caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, instead of arresting Yates, Sean is rescued by him and taken to Yates’ home—a satellite high above Earth. There, Sean discovers a world he thought possible only in Science Fiction.
Everything he believed he knew about Yates is turned upside down, and Sean must make a decision: to remain with the LAPD or join Yates and work toward intergalactic peace.

Excerpt
The outer doors to the lab were
being blasted away. Yana dropped the chip on the floor and grabbed for it
frantically. A loud pounding started on the door outside the lab.
“I hear it, Yana. The clicking. What is it?”
“They’re here.” Yana did a quick assessment of their location. “The
cabinet. Sean, get inside. Now!” He fumbled with the last chip until he managed
to get it inserted.
Yana dashed across the room to the storage cabinets, shoved Sean
inside one, and climbed into the one next to it. He barely got the doors closed
when the entrance to the lab burst open and the Krill swarmed in.
Yana had given Sean extensive insight into the Krill during their
journey. But the clicking noise of their chatter was the stuff of nightmares.
As they entered the room, Sean could hear the sandpaper sound of their bodies
over the floor, followed by the odor of something truly foul. Sean’s heart
thumped so loud he was afraid they might be able to hear it from his hiding
place.
The Krill circled the device with their instruments, connected them
together, and stood back. In a few seconds, the room filled with a humming
sound, followed by a loud snap of electricity, and the device disappeared.
This here is sort of an enemies to lovers story. The enemy
part doesn’t last long lol. Paranormal stories are always touch and go with me.
Sometimes they blow my mind and other times they fall flat. Home was different
than some I’ve read. Donna McIntosh is creating a world here. Never an easy
thing to do. I love the world Yanas comes from. I love the little things and
big things. How they handle money, transport, peace. That was all very cool! I
wouldn’t mind living there at all.
As fabulous as the world up above was the world below
(Earth) was, well, horrible lol. But we all live there so we know. Sean is an
LAPD cop and that is fine, but at forty two you’re really a part of that unit.
You’ve been doing it a long time. He’s an outcast by his own doing and he has a
Captain who really cares a lot about Sean and I found Sean rather rude to him.
Very dismissive and the whole “men in blue” bond that is VERY strong in the
police force wasn’t there. It was like Sean had a side job after school and
when he quit it was like, “See ya.” The cop relationship was written too fast
and with little compassion.
That said, the total opposite is to be said of the world
above. It’s written with descriptive eloquence. The characters are individually
enjoyable. The time is taken there where it’s rushed on Earth. I think because
the world above is so brilliantly written it made the difference so glaring to
me.
This is a paranormal love story. It’s suspenseful in certain
parts and wildly creative.
