Title: Love Triangles in the Double Helix
Love triangles
abound, at least in fiction. We love to take sides and to root for one team or
another. The Double Helix is a
science fiction/urban fantasy series; it isn’t specifically a romance, but love
is universal and forms the core of this story. Let’s take a look at the key
players in this love triangle.
Zara Itani is a
Lebanese-Venezuelan assassin. Sultry and beautiful, she is lethal with blades
and guns, and her attitude is more abrasive than steel wool. Her relentlessly
practical, take-no-prisoners style results in her having little patience for
people who will not tackle a problem head-on. Strong-willed, an alpha female in
every possible way, Zara respects strength and courage. She also has a deeply
hidden streak of compassion that she will deny to her deathbed. She is “a
catalyst of events, most of them cataclysmic.”
It should come as no
surprise that, on a whim, she frees Galahad, the lab-created perfect human
being from his laboratory prison. Galahad is Zara’s perfect match. He possesses
more than an incisive intellect, impeccable manners, and stunning good looks.
He’s the only one who can beat Zara in a fair fight. Everyone wants him, but
Zara has him. Zara and Galahad are clearly made for each other.
When could
perfection possibly not be good enough? When you can compare perfection to its
imperfect source, of course.
Danyael Sabre is an
alpha empath and the genetic source of Galahad’s physical template. They have
the same pale blond hair, the same striking dark eyes, the same sculptured
features. Physically, they’re identical. In every other way that matters,
they’re not. After twenty-five years of imprisonment in the laboratory where he
was created, Galahad is eager and impatient to seize the world. On the other
hand, Danyael, after a traumatic childhood as an undiagnosed alpha empath,
wants nothing more than to be left alone to do his job as a doctor in a charity
clinic in poverty-stricken Brooklyn neighborhood.
Zara’s impulsive
action in freeing Galahad upends Danyael’s hard-won normal life. Inevitably,
Zara and Danyael meet, and just as inevitably, she dislikes him. Danyael’s
psychic shields, designed to deflect attention, are partially to blame, but she
would have found fault with him anyway. She thinks he’s evasive and a coward,
unwilling to face his past or embrace his empathic mutant powers. He thinks
she’s an interfering troublemaker with a ruthless and cruel streak, but is too
polite to say so. When she finally falls in love with him, they are not certain
if she did so on her own accord or whether she was influenced by his
emotion-altering mutant powers.
No question, Zara
and Danyael are made for each other too.
Who will Zara
choose? The perfect human being who wants her and everything that life can
offer him, or the alpha empath who watches silently from the sidelines of life?
One thing is certain; being loved by Zara isn’t safe. On a normal day, Zara can
wreak more havoc with love than most people can with hate. Good luck to the
unfortunate guy Zara chooses, because he’ll need it.
You can follow the
Zara-Galahad-Danyael love triangle, beginning with Perfection
Unleashed, the first novel in

About The Double
Helix series:
His genetic code
sourced from the best that humanity offers, Galahad embodies the pinnacle of
perfection. When Zara Itani, a mercenary whose abrasive arrogance exceeds her
beauty, frees him from his laboratory prison, she offers him the chance to
claim everything that had ever been denied him, beginning with his humanity.
Perfection cannot be
unleashed without repercussions, and Galahad’s freedom shatters Danyael Sabre’s
life.
An alpha empath,
Danyael is rare and coveted, even among the alpha mutants who dominate the
Genetic Revolution. He wields the power to heal or kill with a touch, but
craves only privacy and solitude—both impossible dreams for the man who was
used as Galahad’s physical template.
Galahad and Danyael,
two men, one face. One man seeks to embrace destiny, and the other to escape
it.

Unleashed, Perfect Betrayal, and Perfect
Weapon, will challenge your notions of perfection and humanity, and
