Life in the outer realm is a lawless, dirty, hard existence, and Solara Brooks is hungry for it. Just out of the orphanage, she needs a fresh start in a place where nobody cares about the engine grease beneath her fingernails or the felony tattoos across her knuckles. She's so desperate to reach the realm that she's willing to indenture herself to Doran Spaulding, the rich and popular quarterback who made her life miserable all through high school, in exchange for passage aboard the spaceliner Zenith.

I had read Alienated and enjoyed Landers writing, but I have to say, this was even better.

This was a fun outer space romp filled with lots of action, adventure, and characters you can only love. I loved the "family" that was assembled onboard the Banshee. They were quite a diverse crew of imperfect people, who were perfect for each other. I found the world and the politics of this world quite interesting. There was some commentary in there regarding fuel and the outer terraforms, which I found quite intriguing. This was an enemies to lovers romance, and it was a nice slow burn. Landers created a lot of evidence for why they should like each other and when it finally happened, it was perfect.

Overall: great enemies to lovers romance with lots of action, adventure, great banter, space pirates and bounty hunters.
