Synopsis
They are here among us…
Far from home, gifted with special abilities, hunted for their powers. And they are desperate to find their other, the one who completes them…before it's too late…
Together, anything is possible…
As leader, Edan Mirav must protect his people from the enemies who wish to destroy them. Despite his extraordinary abilities, Edan has not been able to locate his double—the one person who could make him whole and help him control his remarkable power to age himself with a simple thought. With her, he can grow even stronger. Without her, he is doomed to an uncertain fate. Just when he's about to abandon all hope, she stands before him in the blazing hot sun of the desert like a shimmering mirage…
Recently rescued and freed, Ava Arganos has been working in the desert—and waiting for the day that her double finds her. When Ava first lays eyes on Edan, she doesn't recognize him immediately even though she feels the charged, sizzling connection between them. Now united, Edan and Ava surrender to a fiery, explosive passion that only renews their bond as they combine forces to battle their most treacherous foe yet...
Praise For The Novels Of Jessica Inclan
"A magical, mystical tale, one you won't soon forget." —Amanda Ashley on Reason to Believe
Publishers Weekly
Inclán (Believe in Me) fails to successfully develop an intriguing concept in this disappointing romantic fantasy. The Cygirians, their home planet destroyed by cruel Neballats, live in exile on Upsilia while struggling to rebuild their culture and rescue their scattered people. Cygirians can only use their psychic powers when paired with a Twin, a spouse and teammate whose psychic ability balances theirs. Reluctant leader Edan Mirav and former prisoner Ava Arganos discover each other after resigning themselves to living Twinless. Once paired, they unite to rescue their people, but Neballats use mind control to force them into betrayal instead. Inclán's refreshingly light hand with romance becomes limp in key scenes, muting conflict and leaving characters flat while piling too much backstory into meandering meditations. (Oct.)

September 11, 2009: "They are here among us.
Far from home, gifted with special abilities, hunted for their powers. And they are desperate to find their other, the one who completes them.before it's too late." The Beautiful Being is the third and final book in Jessica Inclan's paranormal romance trilogy, which includes the books Intimate Beings and Being With Him. It is the story of Edan and Ava, exiled from their destroyed home of Cygiria and stuck on a hostile and unfamiliar planet. They both know their "double" is out there-the one who will complete their soul and strengthen their power-but they have not found each other yet. While Edan performs his duties as the reluctant leader of the stranded Cygirians, Ava's heart slowly hardens, convinced that her double will never find her. But they are destined to be together, and their union explodes with passion and the surprising realization that they are more powerful than they ever could have imagined. Together, with what's left of their orphaned people, they must fight for the very survival of their species.In this sexy and surprisingly thoughtful paranormal adventure, Inclan explores ideas of home, love, and war through the eyes of an alien people whose hearts greatly resemble our own. The Beautiful Being is a thrilling and magical ride through a world that mirrors the very best and worst of us. It is the story of the purest, most passionate love possible, and what a united people are capable of when faced with seemingly insurmountable obstacles.I Also Recommend: Being with Him, Intimate Beings.
