Book 1 in the To Be Insane series. A drug gone wrong in 2026 has plagued the people of Earth, dividing them into 4 levels of insanity after killing billions. The largest group are the Insanes: people whose minds can't handle reality anymore, destroyed. The other three levels are Sanes, Selunas, and Half and Halves. Now in 2047, the Bellatores is a new, mini-army of the USA; they're injecting the cure into those who have become insane from the drug. Seventeen-year-old Hartford Utane is one of these brave Bellatores men as well as the only Half and Half in their division; one of the 40 million who lie between being Sane or Insane. Guided by a troubling past, he and his friends fight to cure the worldwide pandemic of insanity, losing many but refusing to give up hope. However, Hart is mentally unstable, even in his Sane state. With a new heartbreak, he begins to make rash decisions; and one of them results in his being captured. Robbie Delante, 21 years old, has more secrets than he's willing to share. A man guided by compassion despite the pulling urges of possession, Hart's kidnap begins to reveal more than Robbie bargained for... including the secrets that change their relationship. The secrets that make Hart question some things he thought he knew about himself. Romance (sort of) and Science Fiction.

"Why are we here, Melia?" Ryan yelled, eyes blazing in the California night lights. "Your friend's wife is dying, Ryan, don't you care about that?" "Yeah, I care about that, what I'm wondering is why you do." Melia threw up her hands. "Well, why shouldn't I? You put me in his path!" "I don't think you know what you want, but you need to stay away from Karen DeMarco's dying bedside. It isn't your place, Melia, HIS SIDE isn't your place!" "Stop shaking me!" She screamed defiantly and her arm rose to slap him. Ryan grabbed her hand and forced it behind her back. "You can't run after every guy that comes along, Melia, you can't play with guy's hearts like this. It's wrong. You have to be stopped." ****** But is Ryan the one to stop her from hurtling headlong into a future no one could have predicted? And will Melia let him?
