Some things are harder to fix than others. Violet hasn’t seen her danger-loving business partner (and wife) Iona for months. They’re better off with at least two planets between them. But now a client’s offered them good money to retrieve an irreplaceable item from the man who stole it. Violet wants to say no, but their bank balance and ailing ship’s engine say yes. It’s one day’s work and they’re both heavily armed. Surely they can get through one job together without breaking anything else? A no-heat sapphic science fiction "marriage in trouble" romantic suspense short story that has an HFN with the promise of rebuilding. Previously available via the author's newsletter. No major edits.
