"This is how we’d traverse the stars; limping and crippled, the last survivors of a dying solar system." Fleeing from a past that almost killed her and a present that promises she’ll only burn, pay-for-passage passenger Ana Kereama boards the Sector Two lead vessel Pavo with only survival in mind. What she finds is a reason to live, and it has nothing to do with New Earth. Teaming up with the sexy and commanding Captain John Jameson to protect those on board their ship, Ana fights not only for her vessel’s survival but the intelligent being emerging within its gel coated walls. Love and trust are born amongst the stars and plasma fire, but is it possible for a captain to be involved with a second lieutenant? And can any of them hope to survive the treacherous voyage unscathed? When humanity reaches for the stars in a race for survival, only the most daring amongst them will succeed.
