It's been two years since Devin Guthrie last saw Captain Makaiden Griggs. But time has done little to dampen his ardor for the beautiful take-charge pilot who used to fly yachts for his wealthy family. While Devin's soul still burns for Kaidee, she isn't the kind of woman a Guthrie is allowed to marry--especially in a time of intergalactic upheaval, with the family's political position made precarious by Devin's brother Philip, now in open revolt against the Empire. And when Devin's nineteen-year-old nephew, Trip, inexplicably goes missing after his bodyguard is murdered, this most dutiful of Guthrie sons finds every ounce of family loyalty put to the test. Only by joining forces with Kaidee can Devin complete the mission to bring Trip back alive. And only by breaking every rule can these two renegades redeem the promise of a passion they were never permitted to explore. At risk? A political empire, a personal fortune, and both their hearts and lives.

From the Paperback edition.

Ahh...Sci Fi romance - the best of both worlds. I have enjoyed all of the books in this series. I thought the romance was slighted just a bit in this story. We see Devin loving Kaidee which was great and believable and well written. Kaidee loving Devin back was a bit lacking. I did love her character though. I am fond of strong females and also of marginal just getting by sci fi characters. The story was strong and detailed. The plot was believable. The world is fully realized. You can totally picture Dock 5 and the way the various planets etc., interact. This is better Sci Fi plotting and description of worlds and action than many straight Sci Fi books I read. I did think the ending was a bit too quick. There needed to be more fallout discussion at the end.

This author does a great job with the sci fi element which is where many who write sci fi romance go wrong. You gotta read sci fi to write it well and it's obvious Ms. Sinclair does.

But that's a minor quibble. Good sci fi romance is rarer than hen's teeth and Ms. Sinclair needs to write faster! ( )

While there might be lots of plot similarity in her books, I don't care, the chemistry between characters, coupled with the danger they find themselves in, works perfectly for me. I've read all but three and I'm on my way through one of those right now. Great escapes during the pandemic. ( )

Another good one. Confusing in spots, though I figured out who was behind it a long time before they did - the company name, and the slightly off message. Bah. But the characters are nicely limned, and their motivations (particularly the obstacles between Kaidee and Devin) are quite solid. It also rounds off the story nicely, linking back to all three others in the series - especially Gabriel's Ghost and Hope's Folly. Still a lot of questions - what's going to happen to GGS? And Kiler is still wandering around, grrr. So there _could_ be another story - Trip, maybe? But this is a nice closure, if she stops here. ( )

Still love to read Linnea Sinclair; but her best book is An Accidental Goddess. ( )

His family was sending one of their corporate star yachts through two major jumpgates-from Sylvadae to the port city of Tal Verdis on Garno-just for him.

"I've spent too much of my life doing what others expected of me, rationalizing that it was my job to handle those responsiblities that Jonathan was too busy to do, that Philip wasn't around to do, and that Ethan didn't want to do. So I did them, and to a great extent, I'll probably always do them. Just like I will make sure Trip and Barty are safely on their way home. But this chance to have you in my life, it's my one great rebellion. It's my making a choice because you are what i want. I don't walk away from my responsibilities. But I'm tired of walking away from my dreams." -Devin
