She is considered one of the outstanding Indian poets writing in English, although her popularity in Kerala is based chiefly on her short stories and autobiography. Much of her writing in Malayalam came under the pen name Madhavikkutty. She was born on March 31, 1934 in Malabar in Kerala, India. She is the daughter of V.M. Nair, a former managing editor of the widely-circulated Malayalam daily Mathrubhumi, and Nalappatt Balamani Amma, a renowned Malayali poetess. In 1984, she was short-listed for the Nobel Prize for Literature along with Marguerite Yourcenar, Doris Lessing, and Nadine Gordimer.

    When he spoke and I heard his British accent, I'm pretty sure an ovary exploded. Then he knocked on my door with a bottle of wine and two glasses in hand before inviting himself inside. After my bad breakup, I wasn't ready to date. I hadn't even looked for a rebound, but there he was, practically gift wrapped. Too bad I wanted nothing more than a second chance with my ex. Will Montana. I loved saying her name. I'd been watching her for months before she ever noticed me. She was too hung up on that cad to pay me any attention. Despite how perfect for me she seemed, I thought I might have a chance with her. After all, I had a cute accent and since we lived on the same floor, geography was on my side. A month ago, I'd actually witnessed their break up at the restaurant where I bartended. So, I bided my time and waited for her to recover. I wasn't built to be a rebound. And while I was certain her ex would come crawling back, I knew once I'd had a taste of life with her, I could never let her go.

     As a bounty hunter on the planet Sierra, Jules knows tracking down the most elusive and powerful creature in the universe will set her up for life and possibly quell her own inner demons for a while with the distraction of the hunt. What she doesn’t count on is meeting Ethan Knight, Commander of Empress Anna Devereaux’s War Angel contingent from Earth who have vowed to track Helena down before it’s too late. Ethan is determined not to fail his fellow War Angel, Cade, a second time and is on a personal mission to save his friend’s last gift to the world by any means necessary. Unfortunately for Ethan and the other War Angels, Helena refuses to listen to reason and is determined to keep the one and only physical reminder she has left of Cade. Jules understands Ethan’s deep set desire to honor his friend, but she also comes to realize how much Helena has already lost and is sympathetic of her plight. Caught in the middle of a fight that will undoubtedly have a violent resolution, Jules follows her heart and tries to make each side remember how delicate and precious life is, especially one that the universe has never seen before or ever will again.
