THE PHOENIX REBELLION:  GAINING GROUND

Ebook
Futuristic Romance

 

The good news is that Lt. Jason ‘Jace” Quinn has been rescued from the Areth.  The bad news is that he has no memories of the last five years.  This means Jace does not recall Phoenix or even his wife Lily.  Lily knows that she will be able to physically heal Jace but she is terrified that he will never remember what they have shared and that their daughter will never know the love of her father.  As she fights to bring Jace all the way home, the rest of humanity struggles to stay alive during the Areth attacks. 

Just when this reviewer thought that the Phoenix Rebellion could not get any better, Ms. Delaney comes out with the latest installment GAINING GROUND.  This book has to be the best futuristic romance that this reader has ever read as it could happen.  Ms. Delaney has made this possible future all too real which adds greatly to the terror of the tale. 

Despite the lofty goal of Phoenix, the men and woman are just people struggling to survive.  They have their fears and weaknesses.  Readers will find it easy to empathize with all of the characters, possibly even seeing themselves in one or two of them.  What really makes them heroes is their willingness to persevere despite the overwhelming odds, to push aside their fears for the greater good.  These characters are ones that will stay with the reader for a long time. 

Get your copy of GAINING GROUND today.  This reviewer cannot say enough great things about this diamond of a story!  Feel Lily’s love for her child and her fear for Jace.  Rejoice in Michael’s growth as a man.  Cry with the men and women of Phoenix when some uncomfortable truths come to light.
