Fall in love with the alien from the galaxy next door...

Nessa's job as a shuttle tech and inspector is to make sure shuttles are in tip-top shape before they fly out so their occupants arrive alive. So what if scary thugs are guarding a derelict-looking shuttle at the Milky Way Galactic Port? That won't stop Nessa from completing her inspection. When she finds their hidden cargo-a pair of human women in stasis being sent off-world-Nessa only has seconds to escape before being added to their collection. With the thugs closing in and only seconds to spare, Nessa programs the shuttle with the last coordinates in her inspection log and hopes she's safer taking her chances with the unknown instead of the danger she's leaving behind.

Kamau, the Servali chef on the Comet Stalker, prides himself on feeding the crew and passengers the best food the Felix Orbus Galaxy has to offer. Nourishing the new families on board helps him forget that he doesn't have a Queen or cubs of his own. With an increasing population of humans aboard his craft, he decides it's time to master their traditional cuisine. But the pod of ingredients he ordered from the Milky Way Galaxy arrives with a chaser-a damaged shuttle with the most beautiful (and the most seriously ill) woman he's ever seen. Could this be an unlikely gift from the universe? Could Nessa be the Queen he's been waiting for, the woman he can pamper and adore, nurse back to health, and save from a lifetime of loneliness? If only she weren't such a brave, heroic Queen, obviously meant for a Tigerite warrior or a Leonid captain. Such a prize could never fall for a scrawny Servali chef-right?

When Nessa awakes, she's warm, safe, and being pampered like royalty. Her guardian angel has fur, sports an apron, and treats her better than any human ever has. She's instantly drawn to Kamau and the friendship he offers her. If only he wanted to be more than friends!

Enjoy a standalone friends-to-lovers sci-fi romance from the Felix Orbus Galaxy. A steamy happily ever after awaits!
