Games We Play:A Novel:

by Toni Westbrooks

Is the future really going to be any different than the present when it comes to true love? Probably not! No matter what planet you're from! When a handsome, bi-colored, albeit flawed, sixteen-year-old Terpaqi male meets a beautiful, precocious, African-American, fourteen-year-old Earth girl, a multi-world friendship develops and love will never look the same again. In 2160, two teenagers meet on a school bus headed to a Space & Science Camp on Earth by mere chance. As adults, they reconnect at the Allied Space Academy and University and begin to build more than a friendship; they will assist in saving their people, even as the two worlds threaten to tear them apart. Quall Jildar, a bright yet rather formal and "business-like" alien teen from planet Terpaq, and Amanda D. Jade (AJ), an intuitive, precocious, tough-as-nails girl, embark on a multi-world wind journey of friendship and love. What each world doesn't know yet is that through their forbidden relationship, they will discover the key to the greatest mystery of the the origin of life! And it will all begin with another truth, proclaiming out loud that companionship knows no species, no racial or interstellar differences. Quall and AJ will soon realize that destiny has chosen them to work together, for which they may have to pay a very high price.

Spread the word, this book is good!!!

Wow and wow. I spent half of a rainy Saturday and Sunday reading this book.

I just love the progression of Amanda and Quall's relationship.

I appreciate that the book was not overly sexualized and that the characters did not have sex until they were married.

Thank you for giving us an intelligent confident female lead.

Looking forward to more from this author.
