Interface
When unexpected side-effects in Gina Xanacovich’s nanotech research leads to murder and death threats, her father hires private mercenaries to protect her. But Johan “Alex” Alexander proves to be just as dangerous to her peace of mind as the threats against her life. Worse, his seductive voice and irritatingly calm presence keep Gina on edge, making her want more from him than just being her bodyguard.
Giving into their growing attraction, Gina finds it hard to focus beyond her obsession with the sexy mercenary. She knows if she can’t reign in her desire, she won’t live long enough to discover those responsible for the murders and threats. Nor will she discover how far things can go with Alex.

After reading “The Secret of Narava” I was very much looking forward to reading this “prequel”. Having knowledge of this world, it was easy for me to accept the characters and premise. However, I don’t think the first time reader would have any issues starting with this short story and being able to “jump right in”. Ms. Kelly’s powers of description are right there, painting a vivid and enjoyable world for the reader. Her strong characters and dialogue draw the reader in. At the risk of spoilers, the climax of the story reads as an action film. Intrigue, danger, passion and peril to the future of Gina and Alex.
The biggest disappointment of the entire story was the length. It’s a short story. It claims to be a short story. I can’t really blame Ms. Kelly, except her writing brings you into this world so completely, that at the natural conclusion of this particular tale, you are left wanting so much more. I suppose, in the grand scheme of things, isn’t that a wonderful problem to have?
