Charlize Worthington's Offers New Science Fiction Romance Novel, THE GEMS OF ZEPHRON

In her new science fiction romance novel "The Gems Of Zephron" (published by Trafford Publishing), author Charlize Worthington takes readers to the alien world of Zephron, where a prince and a princess defend their world even as they fall in love.

Voltron, prince of Zephron, never expected to fall in love with Lyssa, princess of Zarift. Their two worlds compete for the energy gems that power spacecraft and weaponry, but not even opposing politics or an interplanetary war can keep the two apart.

An excerpt from "The Gems Of Zephron":

"On our planet women are to be loved, cherished and protected. They do not fight in our wars. They make us our homes and have our babies and we love them dearly. We will kill another male who attempts to take our mates."

Worthington hopes that readers will find both escape and hope in "The Gems Of Zephron." "As technology increases we encounter more conversations on our phones and computers, but fewer relationships of substance," she says. "People, especially women, crave the deeper and more powerful claims of love that can only be found in the arms of another person."

Charlize Worthington grew up in Washington State. She is retired and married, with four grown children and five wonderful grandchildren. She has always enjoyed writing, especially passionate romance novels. Worthington is an avid reader, devouring as many books on romance, paranormal and science fiction romance as her times allows.
