The asteroid heading toward Earth is about to destroy both their worlds. Risking everything, Romulus takes Aster with him to Outerworld to warn Earth's scientists and is captured. Now Aster must face her destiny and convince the powers of Norona to accept a long-hidden secret if her soul-mate is to survive. less

The bestselling author of Stardust Dreams has created a futuristic romance about love in another time, another place.
