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?
