<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>A passionate romance about three women striving to build a family in the face of otherworldly threat<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Tsuki\u2019s work in genetics is at the forefront of exploring the human genome. As she works toward unlocking the secrets, she becomes increasingly haunted by an ominous future.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She finds solace in the arms of Hana, a quantum physics prodigy with a gift for holographic art. Their romance is sweet and all-encompassing with each eager to help support the other in their respective projects. Art and science blur as Hana delves deeper into quantum mechanics and Tsuki helps to usher in a new era of sentient robot companions. As the two women become pivotal figures in the new era of human history, the ominous future looms and threatens to wipe out all life on Earth\u2014human and robot.<\/p>\n

Echoes of Destiny<\/em> is an intriguing blend of erotic romance and science fiction. Whenever they\u2019re not working, Tsuki and Hana often ignite a fiery passion, but it often remains more sweet than sexual. While still undeniably erotic, their intimate scenes feature endearing turns of phrases like \u201charmonious duet\u201d<\/em><\/strong> or \u201csanctuary of shared pleasure\u201d<\/em><\/strong> that highlight their deep love for each other. The book\u2019s erotic nature plays a role in the science fiction side too, like when nanobots that were used to treat Hana after a motorcycle accident exchange places in Tsuki\u2019s body. They become intertwined not only in the metaphorical and sexual sense, but the literal one. The nanobots connect them and become an important element.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The mystery anchoring much of the book is Tsuki\u2019s vision and the entangled relationship that forms between Tskui, Hana, and a robot named Kiku. The three women (Kiku identifies as a female AI\/robot) become almost godlike as a trio named Trinity. They amass untold power but eschew acting on it and instead focus on a loving family including children.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But the looming threat and increasing hatred toward robots force them into action. Trinity\u2014Tskui, Hana, and Kiku\u2014become vanguards for humanity. Their drive to protect their family while retaining their core humanity is rewarding, and they struggle with doing the right thing without sacrificing their morality.<\/p>\n

The book\u2019s set-up and storyline both work well and remain engaging throughout. Sometimes, however, the writing stands in its way. Irregular sentence structure, perspective shifts from the first to third, and some jarring leaps in time that are covered in a single sentence are a few perpetrators. The erotic elements are surprisingly sparse but effective and loving when they arrive.<\/p>\n

Echoes<\/em> of Destiny<\/em> is the first volume of the Quantum Hearts Saga but functions well as a standalone. The epilogue hints at a fascinating future of humanity, if they can make it there. Follow three fascinating women through an intriguing mystery of how to save Earth in this creative sci-fi romance.<\/p>\n
