The beloved leader of a planet...a non-citizen fugitive...and a secret love that could kill them both.

Kailynn Evada was born on the most powerful planet in the Altereye System, but was raised in the non-citizen district of Trid. She always dreamed of revolution and changing the injustices of the planet Tiao. But when her brother’s plot to destroy the A.I. that runs the planet falls apart, Kailynn finds herself struggling to save his life.

Armed with false citizenship and determination to save her brother from execution, Kailynn finds work in the capital city, Anon, as a Significant - a person paid to act as a friend to clients.

When a secret request for Significant companionship comes in, the pay drives Kailynn to accept the job. However, she soon discovers that her client is the most powerful person in the planetary system - Elite Isa, leader of the Elite Syndicate of Tiao who is genetically altered for perfection and forbidden from intimate relationships. The undeniable attraction between the two leads to a secret love that could kill them both.

Loved the story line and love the narrator. Enough said!! Hope this writer comes out with a even better one, although it’s probably hard but I will be watching.

One of the things that I absolutely adored about the story is that the romance was a primary part of the plot, but there was so much story aside from that! The romance remained an integral part of the story, so my lesbian heart was quite happy with it, but then my writers heart was also overjoyed at reading so much in-depth plot and development.

I only have two complaints, and they are relatively small. The first would be that the narrator, while clear and precise the entirety of the story, had little variance in her cadence and her voices for each character were the same. The second complaint just comes from being a writer and being somewhat irritated with the overabundance of direction - "She stopped, turned to look this way, then turned, looking another way, her eyes gleaming. She moved her hand, then another hand." That sort of thing.

However, I was obsessed enough with the story that it didn't bother me too terribly much, and might not even be noticed by someone who isn't also a writer.

If you enjoy science fiction, WLW romance plots, and class struggle, this is the book for you! I haven't yet checked to see if this author has more, but I will certainly be looking into it.

I loved this story so much.

This is hands down one of the best audiobooks I have ever listened to. fantastic story! it really captured my attention, and gave a glimpse of what actually could be our future. There could also be a book 2. I hope for a book 2! Well done! Narration is a bit monotone.

Brilliant!!

I absolutely loved this book. I believe the characters as well as their world was well developed and I felt as though I could picture everything perfectly in my mind. Kyra Anderson did a fantastic job with this story and I can’t wait to discover more books by this author.

I walked into this book, not really knowing what to expect from something at 22 hours long. I was worried it would drag it's feet.

But that's not the case at all. Every Chapter had me wanting to hear the next one and while some of the characters felt a bit similar to me, the distinct ones were memorable and kept me invested.

Overall my only two complaints really lie with the narration and the plot. The narratation was kind of boring at times. I sometimes got confused at who was speaking and found myself disappointed that no one's voice felt unique.

On the flip side, without spoiling too much, I felt a certain part of a characters past was forgotten towards the end of the story and I was also a bit disappointed not to have more closure or investment.

Regardless, I'd still highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys sci-fi, some lgbt themes, kick ass main characters, dark pasts, and swearing. You really can't go wrong.

Couldn't put it down!

Loved It

Sci-Fi is one of my favorite genres. It was refreshing not only to have two strong female leads but have a same sex relationship as well. It is by far one of the best I’ve read with these two factors. Had a little 2001 A Space Odyssey vibe to it. But I still enjoyed it.

There isn’t much I would like to say beyond the Publisher’s Summary. In my opinion, it would give away too much of the story. Therefore I have confined myself to four things. First, the story was easy to follow and not once did my imagination say, "Well, that’s insane or completely impossible." Secondly, this is not an angst driven love story, Thank Goodness, because it easily could have been. Thirdly, if there is a question left unanswered, it wasn’t important enough for me to remember. And lastly, I am glad the author didn’t fall into the “black hole of trilogies” even though this story could have been stretched out with pointless facts into one. And as far as the narration goes, it wasn’t the best in the world. But I gave it five stars instead of three because I admire someone for stepping out of their comfort zone to achieve a goal, as I believe this author did. I sincerely hope there are more audiobooks from her to follow.
