Jordan
Taylor is a feisty, take charge, Rubinesque beauty with a tough façade, but
after a string of lackluster relationships, her dream of a man who truly loves
and appreciates her strength seems impossible…Until she meets Canaan, the man
her fiancé claims is his best friend! Instinctively, she knows her neat, if lackluster
life is about to change.
Born
more than 200 years ago, Canaan looks like an angel but he’s far from it. In
his world, the ratio of men to women is 500 to 1, and although he’s a superior
being, he’s willing to break the most sacred law of his brothers, even drink
human blood, to have one meant for him alone.When he meets Jordan, he knows
she’s the one he’s been searching for.
To claim her, Canaan will have to betray his friend, humble himself
enough to win her love, and risk his very life.

Genesis:
Who are “The Alerians – Dark Progeny?”
“The Nephilim were on the Earth in those days
– and also afterward – when the Sons of God
went to
the daughters
of men and had children by them.
They were the
heroes of old, men of renown.” NIV Gen. 6:4
Biblical scholars espouse a
number of opinions about the literal and theological meaning of this verse.
Some believe “sons of God” were those men who were believers, attempting to
live according to The One God’s laws. Continuing with this interpretation, the
“daughters of men” were unbelievers who just happened to be female and sired
the children of these otherwise “Godly” men. As a paranormal romance writer,
however, I find the other group of scholars’ beliefs much more interesting.
According to some, the
Nephilim were the offspring of angels, able to shift their naturally genderless
form, and sire offspring with human women. As this coupling was forbidden, the
offspring were cursed, evil, and eventually banished from the earth. In fact,
some believe they were the main catalyst for The Great Deluge. They brought so
much evil into the world that the great flood occurred to destroy them and
cleanse the earth (dark progeny).
Imagine angelic beings with
knowledge and abilities far beyond human understanding siring children with
human women. What would these children be like? “The Alerians – Dark Progeny.” Survivors
- Descendants of the original Nephilim.
Their home is a dimension set apart from heaven called Aleria. There,
they live with the curse of their ancestors. As repentance for their
forefathers’ sins, they have lived for centuries, engaged in the war against
unrepentant fallen angels.
Human interaction is
forbidden, and they face eventual extinction. Only one female is born for every
500 males. These females are treated like royalty, mating with the highest
ranking males. The majority of males live as warriors and “Seekers,” no hope of
ever feeling the touch of a woman. But things are about to change…
