"Saving the galaxy was never in their plans"
In their final year with the Raider Program, Gamma cadets Kat Hanneman and Lee Waters live for adventure. Their dreams of exploring distant galaxies and helping others are well within their reach.
But when a routine assignment goes awry, Kat and Lee uncover a volatile secret that threatens to destroy everything they have worked towards. Sparks fly and old wounds chafe—with more than one heart on the line—as they race to save not only their mission and the galaxy, but the very future they hold most dear.
