Knight’s Woman

ISBN: 978-1-59578-719-4

The United Terran Colonies are under attack. Desperate for pilots to combat the enemy raiders the Fleet puts out an all pilots call, hoping to fill their empty fighter squadrons. A call ignored by ex-con Radha Kaden, who figures she doesn’t owe anyone anything. Since a pilot’s life expectancy is slightly less than that of your average lemming, she steers well clear.

Then a bar brawl violates the terms of her release and she has a choice. Go back to Acheron, the harshest prison facility in the combined systems, or pilot a fighter…

Thanks to high casuality rates Wing Commander Davin McAvoy constantly needs new pilots. Dead men can’t fly valkyries nor can they protect the base or her crew. When he’s told he’s getting that rarest of creatures – an experience pilot – he’s ready to throw a party. Until he finds out not only is his new pilot an ex-con but she’s a woman too. Both unforgiveable sins in Davin’s book.

Until he meets her and sparks that have nothing to do with the war fly…

5 Kisses from Two Lips Reviews

The writing team of Ms. Carter and Kurt Drake have combined to produce one of the best novellas I’ve ever read…Every word contributes concisely to what is a very exciting and intriguing plot.

The relationship between Radha and Davin develops at a smooth pace. It’s tender and sweet, and often as combustible as fire to paper. They’re either sniping at each other and arguing or ripping each other’s clothes off.

From one page to the next, this book is absolutely engrossing! There’s more attention to detail in the action scenes in this book, in fact, than I’ve seen in some full-length novels, including some of those coming out of the big New York publishing houses.
