| Breanna is a tough; take charge starship captain - the perfect military careerist. She is also a woman of strong passions and a secret past. Caleb, a potential subordinate, has been busted below his abilities too many times to count. As soon as he meets her and is selected for her crew, he is determined to break thru Breanna's icy façade. Together, they go on a mission to find out what happened to a 'ghost ship'. Only two out of roughly one hundred colonists survive a bizarre accident far from civilization - no one knows why. In the course of their adventures, they are trapped on the (seemingly) deserted ship and many of their team are killed and/or lose their minds. The reason why is buried deep in the bowels of the ship.
I am a science fiction buff (and so perhaps a bit biased), but this is a solid science fiction story with a romantic sub-plot. Heat pours off our lead characters. This is steamy and explicit - not for the faint of heart. The story was so interesting and strong that I was disappointed when it ended so soon. I would have liked for it to be developed more deeply. Greater detail, depth and character development would have made this even better.
