Transcender Trilogy
Suddenly plucked from her quiet Connecticut life and dropped
into a post-disaster parallel world where most of the earth's population
resides in enormous domes, eighteen year old Jaden Beckett lands in the middle
of a kidnapping—her own!
Undercover Agent Ralston of the Inter-Universal Guidance Agency helps
Jaden escape from her captors and promises to return her home as soon as he can
arrange it. But he conceals from her the fact that she is really a Transcender,
capable of traveling among alternate worlds at will. While waiting for passage
home, Jaden assumes her parallel identity as a princess in the nation of
Domerica. She discovers her mother is alive in this world—a miracle she never
dreamed possible. But perhaps even more compelling is her blossoming,
breathtaking romance with Ryder Blackthorn, her once and future soul mate.
When it comes time for Jaden to leave, she flatly refuses. IUGA
claims the welfare of the entire galaxy depends upon her timely return. Jaden contends
that, in this case, eternal love trumps destiny. Who will prevail?
Jaden Beckett makes the journey once again from her home in Connecticut to the nation of Domerica on an alternate earth. The Inter-Universal Guidance Agency has granted her thirty days within which to choose her ultimate destiny. She may remain in Domerica, return to Connecticut, or join the other Transcenders in Arumel.
On her arrival, Jaden finds that all is not perfect in paradise. Her mother, Queen Eleanor, is ill and grows frailer with each passing day. Her scheming uncle has moved into the palace and assumed the role of Lord High Steward of the land. But even more troubling are events that took place in Jaden’s absence which have caused her to question the depth of her fiancĂ©’s love.
All the while, Jaden's friendship with a handsome, young Transcender from Arumel deepens. He teaches her how to use her astonishing gift to travel to exotic parallel worlds and introduces her to others in the Transcender community.
When the time draws near for Jaden’s final decision, her choice is anything but simple.
Jaden Beckett has a secret unknown to those in
her adopted homeland of Domerica: she is a Transcender, capable of traveling
among parallel worlds at will. When the powerful Inter-Universal Guidance
Agency's sophisticated computer models predict that Jaden will eventually cause
the downfall of that agency, IUGA decides to destroy her first. In order to
save herself, her family, and the man she loves, Jaden must fake her own death
and leave Domerica for good. The plan seems sound, but on the day of IUGA's
attack, things go terribly wrong.
Heartsick and alone, Jaden ventures to Arumel, a
progressive nation on an alternate earth, where Transcenders conduct valuable
inter-universal research. Just when she thinks she's found a safe, new life,
IUGA makes its presence known. This time, Jaden is determined not to be driven
away. She will fight to discover her place in the multiverse, the true meaning
of destiny, and the keys to the mystery of eternal love.
