Loveoid grapples with the dilemmas of the latest generation of humankind -- that the loving don't survive. In the present-day novel Loveoid, Olivia unravels a virus that only harms the corporate upper crust. In combat with media, governments and corporations, as love-lacking predators on top kill off life on earth, Olivia finds love, and comes to question her own ideals. The impossibly mixed match encounters life-threatening obstacles, as Khalid elicits her darkest fears, yet lights the way with astrological farming, ancient holistic remedies and spiritualism. Will love allow them to stay human? "With a new, scary virus as the backdrop, Olivia and Khalid navigate love, cures, and a different world. A timely novel with an interesting message about love and nature" -Booklist "Loveoid is a wildly unique and immensely realized science fiction thriller set in a dystopian present in which overpopulation is decimating the Earth and its natural resources at a rapid rate. Additionally, the world of the story is incredibly deep, filled with dense detail and nuance that give the impression of a very realized universe." -Screencraft "As overpopulation grows, natural resources are depleted,species go extinct, and the polar ice caps continue to melt. People now check into euthanasia hotels to escape a hopeless future

The story's premise is interesting." -Library Journal "The smart choice to set this eco-thriller in the present brings home the tenebrous climate prognostications we usually reserve for another year." -Brussels Express "About time some serious writers and artists took on the biggest issue of our time -maybe all time. This story shows that engagement fully underway!" - Bill McKibben, founder 350.org "This is a short, interesting read bordering on eco-fiction that would make for a fascinating movie" -Denver Public Library
