It's the boldest conquest of our time--the colonization of Mars. Of the thousands who clamored for a one-way ticket to the Red Planet, only a fraction remain in the running. Now they're converging on Hawaii's Big Island for a nail-biting competition to be the first to launch. Mila Todorov has prepared for this moment throughout her young life. With her revolutionary propulsion design already built into the Mars vessel, she likes her chances--especially if she can team with her all-time idol, Major Jancey Beaumont, a former NASA astronaut whose last space mission made her a worldwide hero. Jancey is desperate for a return to space, but the margin for error is razor-thin. Can she afford to gamble her destiny on a woman so distracting as Mila?
Daphne Maddox passed up a plum corporate job in Boston to follow the love of her life to Miami. Three years later, the girl and her dreams long gone, Daphne is eking out a living as a coordinator for a nonprofit home builder. Heaven help the next woman who dangles empty promises. Maribel Tirado Leon's "anger issues" have earned her community service on Daphne's jobsite, and their mutual misery makes them unlikely friends. Daphne can't help her fascination with the exotic Mari, who moves in the powerful circles of the white-hot Latin side of Miami. Yachts on Biscayne Bay, glitzy clubs in South Beach...Mari's access to money seems endless. But just when answers might save her wary heart questions are the last thing on Daphne's mind.
It was a great dream--while it lasted. At twenty-five, Amber Halliday thought life on the road with one of Nashville's hottest bands was her ultimate fantasy come true. Then in the blink of an eye she finds herself abandoned at a truck stop in Kentucky. No money, no family and nowhere to go. Navy veteran Joy Shepard, passing through on a cross-country trip, simply can't ignore a woman in distress even if common sense tells her to drive on. She has room in her truck for Amber and a temporary job caring for her wheelchair-bound father once they reach Oakland. In a moment of weakness, she offers both. Though grateful for the opportunity, Amber finds herself on pins and needles over Joy's obsessive tidiness and stringent rules. Little wonder, since Joy finds her slovenly and undisciplined. No way will these two opposites attract--a romance this thorny can only be headed right back where it started: nowhere. Lambda Literary Award Winner - KG MacGregor
