Get urban. Go Terran Realm from Liquid Silver Books.
SummaryBrenna Kennedy has spent most of her life guarding a book of lore she’s pretty sure is a family joke, for a species she’s been raised to loathe. Corporate bodyguard Donovan Callahan has seen it all—and done it twice. He’s tired, jaded and really doesn’t give a damn. In 1989, America has been taken over by materialistic yuppies, the world stands on the brink of ecological disaster…and no one cares. Not even the Keepers of the Environment (KOTE), a clandestine sect of Terrans headquartered in San Francisco. For centuries they worked in concert with Mother Earth, sparing humankind from unthinkable disaster. But now the Terrans have become complacent, perfectly happy to revel in the hedonistic ways of 1980s San Francisco. In doing so, they’ve allowed their power—and their oneness with the Earth—to deteriorate to the verge of the point of no return. It takes four horrific events—Hurricane Hugo, Tiananmen Square, the Exxon Valdez and the Loma Prieta earthquake—to make Donovan realize someone needs to do something, and that someone just might be him. As a Terran—a preternatural being entrusted with keeping the world in balance—it’s up to him to try and save the world—or watch it all come tumbling down. When Donovan teams up with Brenna, the earth moves—and it ain’t an earthquake! San Francisco will never be the same—and neither will Donovan and Brenna.
