Rating: 4 out of 5

This story was an interesting mix between science fiction and historic events. In this book, Felicia is a priestess from Pompeii prior to the volcanic eruption. Instead of dying in the eruption, several ships from an advanced civilization rescue thousands of the doomed inhabitants. The advanced race had seeded the people of Pompeii and some were enhanced, so of course they had reason to save them. But those reasons are not necessarily altruistic. Felicia has the advantage of clairvoyance and visions that allow her to accept the new civilization and technology without much difficulty, and as she learns of her people's situation, she tries to find a way to keep them safe. Here were two intermingled stories in he book. Aidan and Felicia had a sweet slow romance. Laetif, Quade and Caleb have a little love triangle romance that evolves into a threesome relationship. I would read more from this author.
