Will we learn any of the answers in Book 2 – The Awakening?
Jayne Faith: Oh yes, you’ll find out the answers to at least a couple of those questions! The mystery of who was behind Maya’s abduction will be a key one in The Awakening. And you’ll definitely get more development of the relationship between Maya and Toric—with a couple of big wrenches thrown into the works, like Toric’s impending responsibility to find a Calistan wife.
Question 3: Lord Toric seems to have a dark past—what can you tell us about it?
Jayne Faith: I can’t help but feel for Toric because even though he’s the Lord of Calisto and Earth, he hasn’t had it easy in life. In The Selection, you got a few hints about his abduction and torture when he was a boy. He still bears deep scars from the experience, which will come into play more and more as he and Maya grow closer. You already know that Toric’s brother Jeric cruelly reminds Toric of his torture and its effects, but as the story progresses you’ll learn that Jeric is not the only key person in Toric’s life who harbors an unfair prejudice about Toric because of his abduction and torture.
Question 4: What’s the meaning of the series name, “Sapient Salvation?”
Jayne Faith: Sapient has two meanings: “wise” and “human.” I like it because it’s kind of a science-fictiony word (I love science fiction!), and also for the dual meaning. The two most important characters in the story—Maya and Toric—are human in both the literal sense (they’re both descended from the same human ancestors) and in the sense that they have a lot to overcome. They each possess wisdom they have yet to realize, and both of them need saving in some way. “Sapient Salvation” seemed like a catchy and meaningful series name.
Question 5: What other books have you written?
Jayne Faith: My co-author Christine Castle and I also have two futuristic adventure romances:
The Seas of Time is a sci-fi time travel romance that takes place under the ocean—with sexy tattooed mermen! Tap here to read the full story description on Amazon.
The Laws of Attraction is a futuristic space opera romance that’s perfect for fans of Firefly, Star Wars (especially the Han Solo-Princess Leia romance), and Farscape. Tap here to read the full story description on Amazon.
