Book excerpt: "When the council that controlled the world spanning computer Mother fell out in civil war, it plunged the world in an instant from high-tech utopia to medieval nightmare. Critical to the little remaining technology that was left were the Helium Three reactors that powered the world-wide power grid. And the refueling ship that returned from the outer planets every five years." "With the ship on its way back for the five year rendezvous, every faction on the planet was hungry to capture the tanker, and the power that went with it." "Megan Travante, former slave girl, assassin and currently one of the thirteen super-powerful "Key Holders" that control the world-spanning computer network called Mother, has become deeply entrenched in the political infighting that characterizes the New Destiny capital. In that role she is swained by her "very close, personal, friend" Herzer Herrick, the Blood Lord's Blood Lord, who would much prefer to be splitting orc heads or riding dragons. He wouldn't mind so much if he was at least getting some." "When Herzer and Megan are trapped as replacements for the slaughtered first team, life becomes a nightmarish scramble to find qualified personnel and train and prepare for the toughest space-walk of all time. All while being assaulted by giant metallic scorpions and trying to resolve their "close, personal" differences."--BOOK JACKET.

Not until a Norwegian graduate student, ERIK HAUKELAND, moves into their home and turns her world upside down.

When Leigh discovers that Bob has been having an affair with his attractive administrative assistant, she stops resisting Erik, and they begin having a torrid affair. What she doesn't expect is to fall in love with him, and he with her. He wants her to leave her family and return to Norway with him, but she can't leave her kids. The inevitable happens, and the affair is discovered. Bob files for divorce, and Erik returns to Norway. Leigh's children are appalled at what they see as Leigh's betrayal of their father, and nursing her wounds, Leigh moves into her friend, DEANNA'S penthouse apartment in New York and tries to start a new life. After Deanna is diagnosed with breast cancer, Leigh gives into Erik's pleas to come to Norway for a visit. For a couple of days everything is wonderful between them until Leigh discovers that Erik is the father of a little boy by a pretty redhead named MARGIT. And what's worse, Erik is obligated to marry her. Leigh is devastated. She returns to Washington DC and throws herself into a new life, determined to win back the love of her children. As the year passes, a new man comes into her life, and in Norway, Erik marries Margit. Still, no matter how much Leigh and Erik try, they can't seem to forget each other. And soon they will find that nothing can stop them from finding their way back to each other, not even distance, death or betrayal.
