Latte first. Then the galaxy.
Elizabeth Harper's biggest crisis used to be misshelved books. Now she's punched holes in alien spaceships, escalated an interstellar war, and become the most feared librarian in the galaxy.
She'd settle for a decent latte.
When Commander Kaelen Velthar accidentally abducts a Seattle librarian during an emergency hyperjump, he doesn't expect his fragile cargo to outpunch his entire crew. Turns out human bone density, by galactic standards, is closer to armor than skeleton. Bad for the battlecruiser. Worse for his composure.
Then Supreme Warmaster Ash'velkathorinathktu-Zex'ley—or "Ashley," as Elizabeth keeps calling him—decides he wants the human weapon for himself. He just needs leverage.
Unfortunately, Elizabeth is starting to have some.
Saving the galaxy is the easy part. She's been flipping tanks since Tuesday. The seven-foot brooding alien commander she keeps wanting to kiss? Different problem entirely.
A spicy sci-fi romcom for fans of Ruby Dixon, Ann Aguirre, and Galaxy Quest, featuring accidental abduction, alien-war chaos, found family, and one librarian with catastrophic strength.
