Celestine Rose. Nice, gentle, sweet, innocent, and absolutely out of this world. Heading to a huge meeting of the Nations, she was expecting the normal. Out of her sixteen years of living, she never found reasons or evidence that she was different. Sure, she's anti-social, and a geek, but isn't everyone just a little?
Come join the world of Celestine. Being different is hard, but what's harder, is when people want you dead because of it. She comes from a dead race called The Effervescents. The Effervescents was a race that once roamed through the universe. Having powers of the stars, and galaxies, they were unbeatable. But mankind had to destroy it all. Humans feared that they were being under attack. They believed that they were going to be extinct. So, humans did what they were known best for. They killed every single Efferescents in cold-blood. But, they lost one. Knowing that they had to wait for sixteen years, before they could tell if the Effervescent was human or not. They were planning on killing the Effervescent as soon as they found it. But, with the help of the Protectors, Celestine was able to escape.
Passing through near death encounters, fighting against all odds and every official after her, will she make it? Or will she die to late? And will the humans ever figure out the secret?
Will they figure out that she is their salvation?

(Was called the New World)
"I am a wild rose. I am free. I do not need your permission to grow. To bloom, to be the person I was always meant to be."
In Martha's world, an alternative earth, the people follow the rules of 'The Grandmothers'. When you turn twenty five you are shelved, no longer allowed to date and forbidden from marrying.
The earth is still recovering from the third world war. Resources are controlled by the Elites and the environment is polluted and many countries are damaged beyond repair.
The population that survived the war has been ravaged by chemical weapons. The genders are out of balance. For over sixty years the birth rate of female babies has far outweighed their male counterparts.
Women are resigned to the knowledge that if they are not married by the time they are twenty five that they never will be. They have limited choices once they are shelved. Martha chooses to go against the wishes of her family. She will spend the rest of her life taking care of her widowed Father as opposed to working and giving all her money to her younger female cousins to supplement their dowry.
Fate and time has a different plan.
Martha is drawn into a battle between The 19 and The Wild Roses. Two different factions each wanting to use and twist Martha for their own ambitions.
Will Martha be able to bloom and change the world for the better or will she crushed?
