Being revealed as a Portal was like finding out you had the plague.

Nobody wanted to be anywhere near you, especially if you were as strong as Jacinta was proving to be. As if she didn’t have enough things on her plate already.

Raised by a cult, malnourished and ripped from the first place she'd ever felt safe, Jacinta's world had been turned on its head.

To make matters worse, there was the Pure Human movement who saw all Portals as mutants who should be destroyed. At least her protective detail was on her side. They weren’t friends, but they seemed to have her best interests at heart.

As for the rest? Well, who knew if she'd live long enough to even think about it.

Jacinta was in a race against time to manage her ability before it tore her apart - mind, body and soul. Could her team protect her from not only the unseen dangers around her, but from her own ability?

This is a slow burn series where the female lead will have more than one love interest and will not be required to choose.

Stellar is a book, packed with action and tension and contains scenes that may cause distress to some readers, including but not limited to gun violence, assault and mentions of severe family dysfunction. This book is not suitable for readers under the age of 18 years

What reviewers are saying:
"I loved this book so hard. The characters were well developed and engaging. There's enough action and mystery to choke a cow. I have so many questions that I need answered. I'll just crawl under the cover of my bed and wait for the next book." - Helle Gade, http://hellegade.com

Hi, I'm Jade Thorn,

I'm a stay at home mother of 3 gorgeous wee monsters. I live in Australia with them, their Daddy and our pet fish.

I've been writing forever it seems. I had a passion for it as young as 9, but it never occured to me that others would like my little stories. I have oodles and oodles of half written pieces and slowly but surely I'm sharing them with you.

I'm finally doing what I've always dreamed of, and it's even better than I imagined. I do hope you enjoy reading my stories as much as I enjoy writing them.

Jade

xoxo

Interesting set-up and the whole concept is rather unique. Curious to see what the purpose of the power is. Also nice to not know for sure who will be in the harem ;)

3.5 Stars- This is my second series by Jade Thorn and I really love her writing. She has an ability to immerse you into such unique worlds. In this book, Jacinta is a Portal. A human being with the ability to go nuclear. The government/military has taken control of Jacinta's life and has harbored her away on military basis to study her and her kind. There's not a lot of knowledge about Portals but some people apart of the Pure Human movement want to eradicate Portals. Due to the threats Jacinta is assigned a permanent protective detail. They protect her from Pure Humans and they protect everyone else from her when she heats up. Jacinta bonds with her protectors and for the first time has friends with people on the base. This is a slow burn RH. You get the feel of which men will be apart of the harem but some of it is still left in the air. There's still a lot to learn about what makes Jacinta a unique Portal.
The only reason this was not 5 stars for me was how the author described and kept making poor references to Hammer's skin. He is a member of the protective detail and who I'm assuming will end up in her harem. He was described as skin so dark it was almost black whereas a biracial character had glowing skin, or something positive like thay. There was also some other references to how dark he was and not in a positive way. As a Black woman, it irked me. I hope the wording changes in future books.

Amazing start of an urban fantasy / sci fi series with protective military men

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 2, 2021

Jacinta’s world is turned upside down the moment testing shows she’s a portal. While portals have powers, not a lot is known about the way those powers work yet. Unfortunately that means the diagnosis is more a curse then a blessing, because portals can become unstable and a risk for others. Will the men assigned to her be able to protect her, and everyone else?

When I read the blurb of this book I didn’t really know what to expect, but this book is absolutely brilliant in my opinion. I love a good slow burn that focusses on plot and a good story line, and this one absolutely delivered. I love the connections between the military guys, the way they find a place for Jacinta between them, but also the intrigue and power struggles within the military. I’m a sucker for lingering questions and secrets, and this book has plenty of those but also just enough flow to stay on the edge of angst and frustration.

I highly recommend reading this start of a series! It’s an amazing slow burn with multiple POV

Something completely different with actual character development and plot, the only complaint I wish it was longer!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 10, 2021

I read a lot really an embarrassing amount actually so finding something that is so completely different and written so well is beyond exciting and made for a great read that was over too quickly.

I wish it was a little longer but other than that no complaints it really was pretty perfect.

I loved that the author didn't throw instant lust/love or $ex into muddy the water with this one, but actually concentrated on developing the characters and plot with just enough attraction and interaction to have you salivating for more.

I can't wait and will be stalking book two hoping it releases early!

For those going in thinking you know what a portal is then get chapters in and find out what everyone understands portals to be in this world for most of the book then bam that ending will leave you stalking book two right along with me!😁

Kudos to the author for delivering such a great book to start the series off with, great job!

Great debut author to me and a fantastically written book. Jacinta is an anomaly, with a gift so powerful that she is assigned a group of soldiers to protect her. Her past is rough and her future is unknown, but she has true grit and a capacity to love and be loved. Told from several POVS, this first book asks questions that I hope the next book can answer.

Great Story and series start

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 18, 2021

Very good plot and characters. SF with promise of RH. I really loved the story. My only issue is this was written as happening in the US but written by a non American. Some of the language would have been different.

This story is wonderful. It started out w the details that you NEED to know. Then all is explained. But it’s hard. It’s so out there. Yet so exciting. People who have ‘events’, such hot episodes that no one understands. Yet there is more…explanations and help… Hope, hope there is more written already. Recommend! 😍

This is the first book I have read by this author snd now I must read them all!!!

I loved this book. The concept and world building was so good. I love Jacinta she is a great character. Her protectors are all great and I can’t wait to see their interactions going forward.

I am really looking forward to reading the next book in the series and definitely recommend this book!!

Loved the original storyline, definitely a page-turner

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on June 13, 2021

This is the first book in the series, is a slow burn RH and does end with a cliffhanger.
I loved this story, its something completely different. For me it was definitely a case of 'just one more chapter' which ended up with me finishing the book at 2am!
Jacinta is a portal, which means she pretty much turns into a potential nuclear bomb when she has 'events'. She also emits radiation and extreme heat so she's been added to the government Portal programme, for both her own safety and the public. She even gets her own military protection team.
I loved Jacinta, she was really entertaining to read, full of sarcasm and humour, she didn't let her situation get her down too much, no matter how scared she was. The protection team feel a connection with 'Jack' and are very protective of her, Hammer was super sweet with carrying her places.
I am loving the direction this book seems to be going in and I can't wait to read book 2.

Oh my goodness... this book is phenomenal

Ok I am not exaggerating when I say this book absolutely blew me away. It is original, beautifully written, and so unbelievably intriguing that I literally couldn't put it down. The only negative thing I have to say about this book is GIVE ME MORE!!! I WANT TO KEEP READING IT. Oh, the relationship development, the back story, the characters, the plot, all of it is fantastic. This is like the perfect cross between contemporary fiction, fantasy and science fiction. I would LOVE to see this made into a show or movie. It would blow my mind. Well done Jade Thorn for another wonderfully written book.

I really loved this book it was a really unique sci-fi concept and the characters were well thought out and a lot of fun to read. I laughed quite a lot through out my reading of this book and while it was a serious story that covered heavy issues it still had a lot of light and laughter. I absolutely loved this book and am now going to be having extreme book anxiety until the next book is released. Don't think about it just hit one click and buy it!!! Yes it really is that good!!!
