A grumpy alien pirate
Noatak is paying the price for his past-his ionic powers are failing, and the ship's doctor says he'll be dead within a standard cycle. Then a captivating female soldier joins the crew, and Noatak finds himself longing for a future he can't have. Taking a mate would kill him outright. The problem is, she won't take no for an answer
A female gunslinger
Marlis has a sixth sense for danger, a keen aim with her pistol... and a dream-crushing brain injury. Disqualified from the military, she signs up as a guard on an alien ship alongside a huge, bearded alien who has her thinking about polishing more than just the barrel of her gun. When the ship's doctor offers a plan that could heal her, she jumps at the chance. All she has to do is mate with one of the crew before the process turns from restorative to lethal, and she has just the alien in mind. Too late, she learns Noatak isn't an option. With one final hopeless option before them, they must risk everything before they lose it all.
