As an energy worker, Genesis Chandler's job is to protect the healing pools all over planet Glory. Yet, ever since her grandmother died and her sisters left their town of Little Glory, Genesis can't seem to find a purpose in her life anymore. She goes through her days with blinders on, reeling from having lost everyone and everything she knows and loves. Never does a person like Genesis, who is by nature gentle and unassuming, expect someone to take advantage of her grief and her disorientation ... As a recent contractor for the Glory Energy Council, Connor Bateman is called in to investigate the odd energy fluctuations affecting all the townsfolk of Little Glory. Connor discovers it is directly connected to the healing pools in the forest preserve. Only Genesis can help him deal with the inevitable crisis. Unfortunately, Genesis is more than a little resistant to help Connor with anything, even this. Once upon a time she'd been in love with him, but then, after a disturbing fight, the next morning he had walked out on her abruptly, without another word. Connor realized his mistake too late, but, not knowing how to take it back, he's avoided her all this time. Seeing her again assures him of two things that he does not want to consider: that he's still in love with her and that she doesn't want anything more to do with him. Regardless of their personal feelings, Genesis and Connor must find a way to work together to discover who's destroying the energy reserve that's the key to all life forms on the planet. Their very survival depends on it ...
