BOOK REVIEW- MIRIYA/prequel" novella to the Double Helix series

  BOOK #1
Miriya is a "prequel" novella to the Double Helix series
Destiny has set her life on a collision course with Danyael Sabre, the alpha empath who can kill with a touch. Whether he becomes friend or foe, whether he and she live or die, will depend on the choices she makes. On her decisions hang the outcomes of the Second Genetic Revolution. Miriya, however, does not believe in destiny, nor want any part of the revolution. It is up to the enforcer, Jake Hansen, to convince her otherwise, and he is running out of time.   AMAZON

This story kept me involved with no problem of my mind straying. I had already read the book, Perfection Unleashed, so I found myself once again having read a book series in a backwards way. But its good to be able to say that it wasn't hard to read at all. Miriya just draws you in. She is a free wheeling, live by the seat of the pants, rule breaking survivor. Now, that might make you think that she is a harsh, uncaring woman but she's not. She has her own moral code but only lets herself have very few close friends. She can't afford to be on the grid of other people's attention. One group she definitely doesn't want to notice her is the Enforces of the Council, and the Mutant Affairs Council that they serve.  She hates everything about the Council, hates that being on their grid could mean the loss of her freedom which she values so highly. She fears not only the loss of her freedom but also her privacy and individuality. As things begin to spike, she does develope some more friendships along the way, which was enjoyable.  
I have to agree with a statement made about the Double Helix Book Set.  Someone said that its, "Higher octane than Heroes.  More heart than X-Men."    That comes through loud and clear even in this Novella.
