The Reading Spot

Finders Keepers by Linnea Sinclair
This was a nice change of pace for me. It has been a while since I have read a good sci-fi book. And this one was a romance which made it even better for me. Someone mentioned one of her books (I think it was Games of Command and said it was really good) and I looked her up and my library has two of her books, I was so glad. So I grabbed this one and now have another book, Gabriel's Ghost on request. I do not know if they are related or not yet. This was a great book if you enjoy sci-fi with some romance (more warm than HOT) in it. The only thing that I wish had been different was I wanted more description of the bad guys. I know that they were not human but that is about it that I remember. Besides that I really liked it.


Independent trader Trilby Elliot is making some not-quite-legal modifications to her starfreighter, when an unexpected visitor falls out of space. Literally. He’s crashed onto the uninhabited planet of Avanar in a crippled ’Sko fighter–the last place you’d expect to find a Zafharin military officer because the ’Sko and the Zafharin have been at war as long as Trilby can remember.
Rhis Vanur is your typically arrogant Zafharin. But to Trilby’s surprise, he doesn’t look down on her or her slapdash ship. Still, Trilby’s learned the hard way that even though she found Rhis, she can’t keep him. She’s just a low-budget jump jockey as far as men like him are concerned. She’s not falling for his offer to help…until Port Rumor reports her best friend missing and Trilby learns that the ’Sko are hunting both her and Rhis. Now they’re in it together for better, for worse–or till death blasts them to oblivion....
