Galactic smuggler Angel Torrence resented Colonel Nicoli Romanof from the first order he barked at her.

On the riskiest mission of his career, Nicoli had allowed his life essence and his physical form to be separated. And the Harvestors had taken the bait —- his body. Now he needed the cocky pilot who'd stolen his vessel to help him retrieve his person and destroy the deadly race of aliens. Then he discovered the young man was a woman, and he kissed his chances of success goodbye. When Nicoli refused her assistance because of her gender, Angel would have moved heaven and earth to prove she was up to the task. But she never expected the colonel's physique to be so magnificent —- or his heart to be so courageous. And when a passion she couldn't deny flared between them, she wondered if they'd found love or flown ... TOO CLOSE TO THE SUN

She loved the daring and romantic exploits of heroic characters on grand adventures in otherworldly places. It wasn’t long before she wanted to write such tales to share with others.

Out of the Night is her second novel and represents her first foray into another of her favorite alternate realities – the realm of vampires.
