 ✩✩



THEY NEVER WANTED TO BE HEROES
Captain Tess Bailey and Shade Ganavan are still the galaxy's Most Wanted, and with revolution in the wind and the universe on the brink of catastrophic war, the situation couldn't be more desperate. Despite the Dark Watch scouring the known sectors for them, rebel leaders have handed the crew of the Endeavor a delicate and dangerous mission: break into Starbase 12 and free renowned scientist Reena Ahern. She's the only one who stands a chance of tipping the odds in their favor for the first time in decades.
BUT PULLING OFF THE IMPOSSIBLE IS WHAT THEY DO BEST
The clock is ticking. But as their attraction builds and secrets are revealed, Tess and Shade must decide if they trust each other enough to execute this impossible prison break. They could change the course of history, but they'll be risking everything... They'll just have to tackle one crisis at a time.

Review: Ever since I read book one in this series (Nightchaser) I've been anxiously awaiting the release of book two. Well, Starbreaker is finally here and is all that I expected and more.

I loved it even more than book one and I was pretty sure that would never happen. Reading these books is just like watching a movie, so vivid are the images the author is able to put in your head.


The plot in book two closely follows the end of book one (they are just days apart in terms of sequence, so in my mind they are just a longish book when read together). And they need to be read together. Book two is definitely not prepared to be read as a stand alone - but then, why would you want to? Both books are amazing, they just need to be read in the correct order.

If you love science fiction, romance, adventure and non-stop action, this series is perfect for you. Even though there's not much of a cliffhanger at the end, I seriously hope book three (Dawnmaker) is still in the author's plans, because I'm not read to part with these characters.

 Happy readings,
