Being Amber
Sylvia Ryan
Both danger and sex
are inescapable in the Amber Zone.
Jaci Harmon was born a Sapphire, but after she’s summoned to
receive her final designation, the testing reveals she carries a gene slated
for eradication. Within a day, she’s sterilized and dumped in the Amber Zone,
where the damaged are corralled away from the rest of New Atlanta. Scared and
alone, Jaci would rather die than face her future as an Amber.
Born in the Amber Zone, Xander Dimos is a product of a
lifetime spent under the oppression of the Repopulation Laws. Decades of
suffering have taught the Ambers to make the zone a place where touch, sex, and
unconditional acceptance ease the pain of their fate. Jaci has a lot to learn
about her new home, and it’s Xander’s responsibility to guide her through the
differences and the dangers safely.
With the simmering undercurrents of sexual chemistry growing
between them, and in the midst of discovering the Gov’s true motives, Jaci and
Xander must overcome his secret and accept their love as undeniable…even if the
time allotted to share it is short.

About the Author:
As an avid reader, I’m always on the hunt for that next
amazing story. Those unforgettable books with the perfect balance of action and
passion are hard to find and even harder to write. My hope is that Being Amber
has given readers a few hours of happiness while they savor the gradual
discovery of each character and how their story unfolds. I usually fall in love
with the hero and heroine in the books I write by the time I’ve written the
last page. If I’ve done my job well, you’ve fallen in love, too. So many times
I find myself not wanting a book to end.
I crave more of the story, wanting to know what happens after the
happily ever after. If you’re like me and want to read more about Xander and
Jaci, the epilogue to Being Amber is posted on my website at www.RyanBooks.net.
Stop in and find out how their story ultimately ends before moving on to
Jordan’s story in Being Sapphire. And from the bottom of my heart, thank you
for reading.
Excerpt:
“Why didn’t you just let me die?” she whispered.
“Because you’re mine to take care of now.” He leaned in
close so that his lips were brushing her ear. “It’s okay to stumble and fall.
I’ll be here to catch you. I’ll take care of you Jaci, I promise.”
Xander squeezed the words out through a tight throat and
then sat on the edge of the bed. He settled her in his lap and tucked her into
him, wrapping his arms around her to keep her warm and let her know she was
safe. After a few beats of stillness, Jaci started shaking her head. Almost
imperceptibly at first, but within seconds, a sob escaped her. “I don’t want
this. Let me die next time,” she cried. “Please. Please,” she sobbed. “I don’t
want to feel like this. I don’t want to feel it anymore.”
“That’s enough,” Xander growled. “I don’t want to hear any
more of this. I’m going to take care of you, Jaci. I’ll help you chase the pain
away. We’ll do it together.”
