One rogue astronomer. One by-the-book interstellar marshal. A luxury starliner that was never meant to be their battlefield... or their bedroom.Dr Theo Whitlock has spent his life mapping stars and running from his family's black-market legacy. When his sister drags him into hijacking the Aurora Dawn's quantum vault, Theo's only plan is to crack the code, grab the keys, and disappear into the void. Then Captain Elliot Vaughan catches him red-handed, storm-grey eyes locking on like a tractor beam, and refuses to cuff him. Instead, he asks a question that changes everything: "You see the universe in numbers. Ever wonder what it sees in you?" Suddenly Theo's fighting two wars: one against pirates who'll burn the Belt to get those keys, and one against the forbidden pull of the one man who should be his enemy. Elliot is duty, honour, and every rule Theo's ever broken, yet every stolen moment in the observatory dome, every brush of fingers over star charts, every zero-g kiss that tastes like ozone and destiny, drags them deeper into an orbit neither can escape. Elliot is done pretending he's just the law. Theo is done pretending he wants to run. But when the Overlords declare war on anyone who stands between them and the keys, and Theo's own blood comes for revenge, the stakes explode: surrender the vault, or watch everything they love burn. In a galaxy that says heroes and rogues can't share the same sky, one possessive marshal and one brilliant renegade are about to rewrite the stars, one scorching touch, one defiant vow, one gravitational slingshot at a time. Explicit heat. High-stakes action. A hard-won, heart-melting happily-ever-after among the nebulae. If you crave forbidden love that burns hotter than a supernova and two men who'd tear the universe apart to keep each other, this is your next obsession.
