Parallel Attraction
Deidre Knight
Signet, Apr 2006, $6.99
ISBN: 0451218116
Exiled monarch Jared Bennett struggles to free his people, the Refarians, from oppressors who overthrew his government and imposed dictatorial rule. He desperately wants to free his people and has a weapon that he believes can turn the trick. However, his vessel is under attack by the enemy forcing him to make a dangerous crash landing on planet earth, a place he once visited years ago during his first mating cycle, but his memory of that stopover was erased from his mind by the betrayal of his advisors who rationalized that by claiming Jared did not need a distraction when his people need him.
Severely wounded, Jared receives perhaps his first break in years when an earthling geologist Kelsey Wells finds him. Instead of fleeing she is transfixed by the beautiful hunk she knows is not of this world or at least Wyoming. Jared is even more stunned as recognizes that he has found his soulmate. The kiss between them eliminates any lingering doubt especially on her part. However, he has a world to save and fears placing his beloved in danger, but Kelsey obstinately rejects his efforts to keep her safe even as she contains secrets that just might save his people if she can just remember them.
The star-crossed lead couple turns PARALLEL ATTRACTION into a fabulous military science fiction romance. The story line focuses mostly on the relationship between the heroic single minded Jared and the amusingly satirical Kelsey. He has no time for a woman while she refuses to let him escape without her at his side. Readers will enjoy the soul-mating of the exiled Refarian ruler and the American geologist with a stellar war as the backdrop.
