A Clean Romance Showcasing a Love which Endures a Thousand Years ... The final day was at last approaching. After a thousand years of brutal war and strife, of unimaginable pain and anguish, the reckoning was here. Nicole would stand to face that ultimate judgment. She would at last discover if all she had sacrificed had been enough - enough to release her from her soul-searing promise. She could finally - wholly and fully - pledge herself to Jon. The man she loved with all her heart. But there are many who crave control over the balance of power - and they would risk anything to seal the lovers' fate. Nicole must surrender all she holds dearest to see her vow through to its bitter end. Centauri Chaos is the third of four novellas in the Collective Saga series. They can be read singly or as a boxed set. They contain no explicit violence nor intimacy. As such, they are suitable for teens and up. It is important to note that in Centauri Chaos, while the scene is written without intimate detail, there is a scene which involves a character recalling a rape from her past. She overcame that rape and found a way forward with strength and courage. Those who might find such a situation upsetting should note its presence in the storyline. All proceeds from the Collective Saga series benefit battered women's shelters.
