It's Monday, and that means
another installment on my Book Buzz Series! The idea for FOREVVER, my 5 star
science fiction futuristic romance, first started as a short story that posed
this dilemma: What is the price for eternal youth? I was so intrigued with this
idea that I decided to expand it into a novel. The dilemma evolved into: What
if eternal youth could be found not in a fountain, but in a box? What if the
richest man in the world was also the oldest?
In
the year 2102, Flavia Gracchus reluctantly agrees to deliver a special shipment
from her home on the Moon to ForEvver Rehabilitation CEO, Reid Evver. What she
doesn’t know is that Evver, a man much older than he appears, intends to marry
her and start a family. How can she escape Evver’s clutches and wed the man of
her dreams?
Ambitious
Jason Maverick can’t believe his new assignment: to babysit Reid Evver’s future
wife, a Moon native, by escorting her on a sightseeing tour on Earth. But the
more time Jason spends in Flavia’s company, the more she captivates him. How
can he propose to the woman he’s been waiting for all his life when she’s all
but bought and paid for by his mysterious, unscrupulous boss?
Awe-struck Publishing
(Mundania Press) offered a contract, and soon FOREVVER delighted readers all
across the globe. Its beautiful cover was honored with the Dirk A. Wolf Cover
Art Award for Best Science Fiction/Futuristic.
Time is running out!
FOREVVER is blessed with
excellent reviews including 5 stars with Once Upon A Romance Reviews. After a
few years, I arranged my book to be available at Amazon.com along with other
internet sites.
In the year 2102, the Fountain of Youth exists for only a
select few. But you can’t cheat death ForEvver.

5
STARS! The romance and secrets in this book are what made it so intriguing. It
was a book that I couldn't put down. This is a good thing as usually I am not a
fan of books with a science fiction feel. I loved how Ms. Knight kept the
passion and the mystery alive until it was time for one or the other to take
front stage and claim the book. I will most definitely be looking for more
books written by this author!--Once Upon A Romance Reviews
4.5
BOOKS! FOREVVER had a mixture of intrigue, adventure and romance. It was a very
entertaining book and a pleasant read. The threads of the book intertwined
perfectly... I enjoyed reading this book and originally picked it because I was
intrigued by the title. I immediately thought spelling mistake, but I was
wrong. The title fit the book perfectly. A nice play on words. Well done Ms
Knight, definitely a book to snuggle up with.--Long and Short Reviews
You Need To Read. A great futuristic read with plenty of suspense and
intrigue. A little different than your usual future tale, this book will leave
you wanting more.--You Gotta Read Reviews

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now for the bits and pieces from my life that I
like to scatter throughout my books. One of the locations mentioned in
FOREVVERr is Maui, a beautiful island I had the great good fortune in visiting.
Here I am, dwarfed by the famous Iao Needle at Iao Valley State Park.
As you’ve probably noticed,
FOREVVER’s heroine, Flavia Gracchus has a Roman name. She’s a Luna native, and
in my take on future life on our moon, the ancient civilization of Rome flavors
a great deal of lunar life. I’ve always been fascinated with Greek and Roman
mythology, and I like to weave these tales through some of my novels, including
FOREVVER. Here is an except from the Maui portion of the book where Jason
rescues Flavia from drowning.
“Flavia!” Jason arranged her unresponsive body on the
sand, and swept strands of wet hair off her face. Relying on instinct, he
tilted her head back and listened for breathing.
None.
“Flavia?” He couldn’t keep the fear from his voice.
He pinched her nose, then covered her mouth with his. With all his might, he
blew his breath into her. Once, twice.
She moaned as she came to, then coughed up water.
Jason had never seen a more beautiful sight.
Helping her to a sitting position, he remained close
to her, leaning his cheek against her waterlogged head. His own breathing was
as ragged as hers.
The
silence on the beach was broken only by crashing waves and squawking seagulls
gliding on tropical breezes. These hypnotic sounds enhanced his relieved state
of mind. His thoughts turned to a story he’d learned about in childhood. A
Greek or Roman tale where a man, Pygmalion, breathed life into an ivory statue.
Or requested a goddess, Aphrodite/Venus, to make the statue live. Pygmalion
then married his creation, and had a happily ever after ending, an ending that
was unusual in mythology.
Jason
had saved Flavia; he’d breathed life into her. Maybe their destinies were
intertwined--
For
a thought-provoking science fiction romance, read FOREVVER before time runs
out! I hope
you enjoy Flavia and Jason’s story.
Happy reading,
Susanne Marie Knight
