  Old Battles

  Zuleyka's world undergoes a massive change when she returns to her home port, seeking answers in the deadly explosion that marooned her on an alien planet. Only then does she discover that there might be as many enemies in her inner circle as there are outside. However, with each new twist and turn, she finds herself hopelessly tugged in new directions by the Orkari men who are helping her, falling for each of them a little at a time. How will she ever choose?

  Brought Together

  With the enemy revealed, Zuleyka and her crew find themselves with a tough decision. Can they stop the next attack on their own? Or should they go back to the Orkari planet and beg the help of the air patrol? Both choices seem sure to bring only more death and heartache. But then, Zuleyka is surprised by an idea from an unlikely source. Now, time is counting down and they have one last chance to save the day, and themselves. Can Zuleyka captain her ship to success, defeat the enemy and juggle the conflicting personalities of her lovers? Everyone is looking to her to make the right decisions, and she can’t help but feel like there is one option she has yet to explore.
