Amazon Editors' Pick - August 2024
Literary Hub - August’s Best Sci-Fi and Fantasy Books
A phenomenally fun novella that kicks off a trilogy of sexy space heists by New York Times bestselling author Beth Revis. Full Speed to a Crash Landing is packed with great characters, romantic tension, and is full of twists and turns that will keep you guessing until the end
Fans of Martha Wells and Becky Chambers will devour this sizzling heist turned rom-com told from the point of view of a sarcastic and witty space scavenger
Ada Lamarr may have gotten to the spaceship wreck first, but looter’s rights won’t get her far when she’s got a hole in the side of her ship and her spacesuit is almost out of air. Fortunately for her, help arrives in the form of a government salvage crew—and while they reluctantly rescue her from certain death, they are not pleased to have an unexpected passenger along on their classified mission.
But Ada doesn’t care—all that matters to her is enjoying their fine food and sweet, sweet oxygen—until Rian White, the government agent in charge, starts to suspect that there’s more to Ada than meets the eye. He’s not wrong—but he’s so pretty that Ada is perfectly happy to keep him paying attention to her—at least until she can complete the job she was sent to pull off. But as quick as Ada is, Rian might be quicker—and she may not be entirely sure who’s manipulating who until it’s too late…
Bursting with action, adventure, and romantic banter, the Chaotic Orbits novellas are the perfect escape for readers wanting a fast and fun break in their day.
