Science Fiction Romance
From Goodreads:
Dr. Eos
Rai has spent a lifetime dedicated to her mother's dream of finding the
long-lost Mona Lisa. When Eos uncovers tantalizing evidence of Star's End--the
last known location of the masterpiece--she's shocked when her employer, the
Galactic Institute of Historic Preservation, refuses to back her expedition.
Left with no choice, Eos must trust the most notorious treasure hunter in the
galaxy, a man she finds infuriating, annoying and far too tempting.
Dathan
Phoenix can sniff out relics at a stellar mile. With his brothers by his side,
he takes the adventures that suit him and refuses to become a lazy, bitter
failure like their father. When the gorgeous Eos Rai comes looking to hire him,
he knows she's trouble, but he's lured into a hunt that turns into a wild and
dangerous adventure. As Eos and Dathan are pushed to their limits, they
discover treasure isn't the only thing they're drawn to...but how will their
desire survive when Dathan demands the Mona Lisa as his payment?
At Star’s End is Science Fiction Romance without much
Science and a lot of Romance. That
said it also has a lot of danger and suspense.
Eos Rai is a very strong woman who has spent her life
following her mother’s dream.
Dathan Phoenis has spent his trying to be different from his father. When the two meet sparks fly. For both that is a weakness. Both have to come to grips with the
past, put it behind them and move on to arrive at their HEA.
This is book one in a series so it required quite a bit of
character and world building. The
character introduction happened very fast. The world building was part of the plot. This lets the story develop quickly. Look for a lot of romance, hooks for
the next book, and an exciting story.
The writing was crisp and kept the story moving. Everything was written in my favorite,
a very active voice. I will be on
the lookout for the next book in the Phoenix Adventures.
Carina Press published At Star’s End by Anna Hackett in
2014.
I received an ARC of At Star’s End from Netgalley.
