The Lustful Blade of the Celestial Frontier

The Lustful Blade of the Celestial Frontier

A FILTHY LITTLE SCI-FI FAIRYTALE FOR GROWN-UPS.

Think old-school bodice ripper meets galactic treasure hunt. With pirates, filthy fairytales, and absolutely no respect for the laws of physics.

Vera Nyx is a treasure hunter, former pirate captain, and a woman with expensive tastes, sticky fingers, and an unreasonable affection for stickers. Glitter is practically a religion. She also has a habit of acquiring things that technically belong to other people.

Like her ex's spaceship. He'll get over it she says.

Ryker Starshadow is a swordsman with a cybernetic eye, a very large weapon, and nine years of unfinished business with the woman who broke his heart. He's deadly with a blade, knits in his spare time, and has a fondness for trashy romance novels.

Vera introduced him to those books years ago, and he found them a fascinating way to explore the feminine mystique. He's been studying the subject ever since, although he occasionally questions the anatomical possibilities described in certain chapters.

Unfortunately, they're both after the same legendary treasure.

And they're not the only ones.

Enter Captain Clarence. A dangerously seductive Void Siren, collector of rare treasures, lover of beautiful things, and another of Vera's exes. He's charming, extravagant, shamelessly flirtatious, and entirely too pleased to find himself competing with Ryker.

Then there are the Seven Widows. Seven of the most feared and dangerous women in the galaxy. They didn't earn their reputation by being reasonable, and anyone foolish enough to underestimate them is unlikely to survive the experience.

And Barnaby Quill. A brilliant treasure hunter who's been dead for years but still insists on commanding his ship, The Last Testament. Death is a minor inconvenience when there's treasure involved, and Barnaby has absolutely no intention of letting it interfere with his ambitions.

Between murderous fairytales, ancient magic, lost civilizations, pirates, and a galaxy full of creatures who would happily eat them, Vera and Ryker have quite enough to worry about.

Unfortunately, there's also the small matter of nine years of unresolved heartbreak, unfinished arguments, and a physical attraction that refuses to behave itself.

Nine years apart. One more chance. And an entire galaxy about to regret their reunion.

The Lustful Blade of the Celestial Frontier is an explicit adult sci-fi romantasy filled with second-chance romance, dangerous adventures, outrageous humor, and enough romantic complications to make a marriage counselor request hazard pay.

A love letter to the gloriously scandalous romance novels of the Fabio era, with a little Indiana Jones, a little Romancing the Stone, and a whole lot of trouble.
