I'll die without her, but convincing her to stay might kill me fasterNeonValkyrieI'm an analyst and sometimes hacker, not a babysitter for lovesick aliens. But uncovering a galaxy-shattering conspiracy means hitching a ride on a Kyvernian ship with a captain who swears I'm his fated mate and he'll die without me. But I have bigger problems. I stumbled onto a secret, now rival hacker IonSpecter is out for my blood. I don't do relationships, but with Cirdox's time running outand the pull between us impossible to ignorewe might solve both our problems... if we survive.CirdoxShe was mine the second she stepped on my shipfate or not. NeonValkyrie's a complication I didn't need, but now I can't get her off my shipor out of my head. I'm smuggling luminore, not for profit, but to keep the Black Eclipse from tightening their grip on the people who need it most. My time's running out. I'm fighting a losing battle with my body, and she's the only one who can help me, whether she admits it or not. She doesn't trust me, but without her, I'm deadand if I fall, everything I've fought for will fall with me.
