Amaryllis
New York Times bestselling author JAYNE CASTLE Acclaimed for her novels of delectably entertaining paranormal romantic suspense (Booklist), the wildly popular alter ego of bestselling author Jayne Ann Krentz takes off on a star-dusted excursion to a rich civilization where danger and passion are just a heartbeat away. . . . Amaryllis Lark is one of the best psychic detectives on St. Helens, the earth colony recently cut off from the mother planet, yet not so very different from home. . . . Lucas Trent, the rugged head of Lodestar Exploration, isnt keen on the prim typeand from her crisp business suit to her cool evaluation of his request to bust a corporate thief, beautiful Amaryllis is excruciatingly proper.

Jayne Castle is the alter ego of one of my favorite paranormal suspense romance writers! Jayne, whether Krentz or Castle ,or any other pen name she chooses to write under, has created some of the most imaginative worlds I have ever had the pleasure to read. New St. Helen's, the setting for the book Amaryllis, is a magical world full of strange creatures, people, and even stranger customs. New St. Helen's is the precursor to Jayne's other new world, Harmony.

New St. Helen's is the precursor to Jayne's other new world, Harmony.
Amaryllis, book one in Jayne Castle's St. Helen's series was written in 2010. Given that I have a library full of Jayne's books, written under all her pen names, I am not sure how I missed Amaryllis. But I am glad I finally read it! It is every bit as fantastical as Harmony!Amaryllis Lark and Lucas Trent are two of Jayne's most passionate characters ! Amaryllis is as prim and proper as Lucas is laid back. Their romance is as unlikely as lightening striking twice in the same spot! But somehow, Jayne Castle makes it work, as the chemistry is off the charts. Jayne molds her characters into believable and relatable people. Their romance elicits all sorts of tingles and goosebumps in all the right places for me.
What I truly love about Jayne's books is that no matter how red-hot, erotic and sexy the romance is, it never overwhelms the story Jayne is trying to tell. Jayne Castle is one of the best storytellers I have ever read. Amaryllis is full of adventure, twisted plot lines, and exciting mystery. Amazon suggested a six hour reading time, but I was unable to put it down even to eat or take bathroom breaks, as I was dying to know what happens next. I, therefore, finished the book in four hours. Then I promptly became upset, realizing I finished it so quickly that I had plenty of time to finish my housework for the day!
Lucky me! I discovered I owned the rest of the series, so I could immediately begin reading the rest of the series. I highly recommend you lose yourself in Jayne Castle's St. Helen's series!

I don't know how I missed this series when it first came out. Amazon said I already owned Amaryllis but I literally have hundreds of books between the basement, living room, and upstairs and couldn't find it. Then when I started to read it, I knew I hadn't read it before. I enjoyed it. It is similar to Harmony in the way humans made their homes there, but no dust bunnies. Some are prisms and others need the prisms to help them focus their talent. This was a clever sci-fi romance and even thou...

Some are prisms and others need the prisms to help them focus their talent. This was a clever sci-fi romance and even though it was first published in the 80's, it didn't feel dated to me.
