After the adventures of the Blue Solace, the Crellic System is forever changed. Can a diverse and eccentric group of survivors bring back the extinct Crell species and carve out a home of their own in the colony of Dragon's Hollow? Xavier Juren has lived in the shadows of his larger-than-life parents and brothers since the day he was born. As the youngest, he struggled to forge a path of his own. Then, the war with Humans First tore apart the galaxy. Taking a chance, he decided to step in to help the colony of Dragon's Hollow in the Crellic System. His new home is far away from his family, and now, he's responsible for a rather strange community full of unconventional people. Who would have thought it would be so much work to keep the settlers from killing one another. Joe Nelm knows how to work hard. His family have been miners for generations and he never thought he'd be any different. When his best friend convinces him to uproot his life and move to Dragon's Hollow to raise Crellic babies, he thinks they've both lost it. Then he meets the charming and sincere governor of the colony and knows he's lost absolutely more than his mind. Joe didn't expect to find a home and family of his own in the wilderness of Dragon's Hollow, and Xav never thought he'd find the partner he always wanted in the rough-looking new arrival. Can these two strangers form a bond that will last a lifetime and keep the colony from falling apart?
