Wayfarer Aegis

Adara Stone—pilot for the Interstellar Planets Union services. She’s half Wayfarer and half human and Captain James’ last choice as a pilot. Excited for her first long contract and explorer-class ship, Adara knows she’ll spend seven years flying a ship in unknown space. She can’t wait to see what’s out there. By the book, Captain Alden James does not want anyone varying from his flight plan. He quickly loses patience with Adara breaking protocol. Adara craves a family, but finds only recrimination and punishment. When fate intervenes, will her Wayfarer skills be enough?

Recovered from the disaster of the Aegis, Adara longs to fly in space again. Emotionally and physically battered, she applies to every piloting position but her heart and soul long to fly the Pritchard. The Manu investigatory ship requires all types of flying from chasing raiders, rescuing ships in danger, and getting investigators on site. Captain Decker Flannery gets to hire his entire crew for the first time. He doesn’t want some damaged pilot to mess with the balance of his crew.
