On this deep space pleasure cruise, love is in the recycled air…

I’m Sunastara Nex, hospitality specialist aboard the most luxurious (and debauched) pleasure cruise in the entire Known Universe. It’s my job to keep my guests happy. It is not my job to fall for my coworkers.

Until he shows up.

Freddie. Sigh. He’s gorgeous, charming, and entirely too tempting. He’s also the man who gave me the most unforgettable night of my life three months ago. And now he’s not just back, he’s on my crew.

I don’t do relationships. I certainly don’t do forbidden workplace romances with emotionally available Perfect Venusian Gentlemen. But Freddie has a plan, and apparently it involves role-play, secret dates, and pretending we’re just acting. Until we’re not…

Because while we’re busy with make believe, a very real threat is closing in. One that could destroy not only the fragile second chance we never thought we’d get, but life as we know it.

And now I have a feeling that if I want a future with Freddie, I’ll have to risk everything…even my heart.

Perfect for fans of Ruby Dixon and steamy sci-fi romance, second chances, forced proximity, slow burn heat, found family goodness, and a happily ever after worth fighting for.
