"Scott and Hope's story, oh my!"

I know I for one eagerly await each and every Parallel story! This one is Scott and Hope's story. Hope saved Scott's life in the last story and Scott brought her back to their base with the warning that she was not to communicate with anyone, not even her twin brother Chris. Hope agrees because she knows there is more to Scott and she wants to get closer to him. Besides she has vivid dreams about Scott and their future together, dreams she just doesn't understand at all. She wants to try to get to the bottom of it all.

Then a strange twist comes along in the form of one Jake Tierney and all Hope knows is that in one of her vivid dreams, Scott tells Hope when she meets Jake Tierney to trust him and to go with him. The only problem is in real life Scott knows no one by that name and why should he tell his beloved Hope to go with someone?

Hope finds out that at the base they can not only cure her blindness but they can also cure her diabetes. She wants to go through with the procedure but Scott is very reluctant because he too has had vivid dreams and is worried that something will go horribly wrong with the procedure. He can't tell Hope why he feels this way because he thinks she will believe he is off his rocker and he's worried that he may be going off the deep end.

I was on the edge of my chair with each and every turn of the page with this one. I hate that it ended because now I want more of the story. Each book becomes more and more fascinating and raises more questions. It is my fervent hope that talented Deidre Knight has many more Parallel stories coming!

Summary

The author of Parallel Attraction unleashes another gripping novel set in an alternate world, where treachery threatens to destroy the strongest of allies, the most loyal of friendships, and the fiercest of passions...

Warrior Jake Tierny travels back in time to stop a traitor in his beloved king's camp. But when a twist of fate proves the mission unnecessary, Jake is trapped in a time not his own, with friends who cannot learn his true identity.

Scott Dillon may be the king's trusted lieutenant, but he is also a man at war with himself, a human hybrid who refuses to succumb to the Antousian nature he abhors—and that Jake Tierny embodies.

FBI linguist Hope Harper refuses to let near-blindness keep her from joining the Refarians in their war to defend mankind. Yet her sizzling attraction to both Scott and Jake, and the strange memories they share, force all three to question the core of their beliefs. And as their enemies surround them, Hope knows she must choose one man for all time...
