There's a lot more to Coalition Starship Admiral Brit
Bandar than anyone knows. Behind her tough facade, she
holds a deeply personal secret. It's the main reason she's
become such a hardened and tactical military leader as
she's hunted down the fearsome Drakken Horde throughout the
galaxy. Known as "Stone-Heart" Bandar, Brit is having
trouble accepting the peace treaty that's recently been
made in the universe among the Coalition, Drakken and
Earthlings -- now called the Triad Alliance.
When Brit is summoned to the Prime-Admiral's headquarters,
she's shocked with her new assignment. She'll be commanding
a brand-new Triad vessel -- The Unity -- and her second-in-
command is none other than Warleader Finn Rorkken, the one
Drakken pirate she's pursued but never been able to
apprehend. Keeping the peace is going to be an even harder
challenge for her.
Finn is tired of fighting and watching his people struggle
to survive. He embraces this new peace treaty with a firm
resolve to do whatever it takes to make it succeed. He just
never imagined it would mean serving on a new starship
under the beautiful Admiral Bandar -- or that he'd be so
strongly attracted to her. As he works side-by-side with
Brit, it doesn't take Finn long to realize there's more to
this woman than the cold pretense she hides behind. And
Brit is finding it harder and harder to keep her distance
from the strong, intelligent and sexy Finn.
Just as Brit and Finn start a closer relationship, the
peace treaty is threatened. Rogue bandits are killing
innocent civilians on distant outposts, and The Unity is
sent to investigate. Will what they find change their
budding romance, or make it even stronger?
Get ready for an incredible futuristic adventure among the
stars with a gripping storyline, fascinating characters and
great writing. I can't wait for more stories about this
unique group of people set in the Borderlands. Susan
Grant has an immense talent for writing this special
brand of romance.
SUMMARY
Their paths had crossed in a bitter war... Their hearts
would collide in a fragile piece... MOONSTRUCK: A Tale of the Borderlands - An All-New Series
by New York Times bestselling author Susan Grant! ...the
adventure begins May 25, 2008 PEACE IS FOR LITTLE GIRLS. And Coalition starship admiral
Brit Bandar is one tough woman. A mere intergalactic treaty
could never get her to trust the Drakken Horde. There was
too much bad blood between the Coalition and the Horde and,
for intensely personal reasons, Brit wasn't sure that she
was through spilling it!
But now a peaceful accord has made Finn Rorkken, a
notorious Drakken rogue, second-in command on her starship -
and through some grand cosmic irony - front and center in
her thoughts...and her heart. WARLEADER. PIRATE. Either title sat easily on Finn's battle-
hardened shoulders. Though second-in-command to "Stone-
Heart" Bandar? That would take some getting used to. Peace
required as much sacrifice as war, so he'd comply even if
his reaction to the gorgeous admiral fell decidedly outside
protocol. But would he end up kissing or killing her if the
galaxy's tentative truce turned into all out war?
