Dalton is a high school teacher, not a soldier, but he's volunteered to fight for the good of the colonies, against her advice. Gabby, on the other hand, is a black-ops prodigy who turned her back on the military years ago. The consequences of re-entering the fray alone like this, wielding the power of her extraordinary armoured suit, could tip the balance of power in the galaxy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo reach her full potential, she must bond with the suit over six gruelling stages. She doesn't know what form they will take, only that the final bonding is permanent, and any changes made to her will be irreversible. Can she see Dalton safely off Orontes before the final transformation? Stealth is her ally, but it's tough to stay inconspicuous when you're taking tactical combat to the next level. No human has seen anything like the things she can do, and word of her exploits soon spreads across the colonies, attracting the attention of powerful enemies, including her old alien nemeses, the Finaglers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the stakes rise, Gabby's loyalties and fighting skills are tested to their limits. But through it all, the love of her life only seems to make her stronger.

Double-crossed. Pursued across thousands of miles of alien desert on his beloved hoverbike, Finnegan is holding onto two things dearer than life itself: the priceless biotech prize he’s stolen, and the opportunity for revenge against the treacherous employer who left him for dead. He’s never met her, but he knows all about her family, the most ruthless criminal syndicate of the inner colonies. But when he finds a beautiful stranded woman badly wounded in the middle of nowhere, claiming to be Lori Malesseur, his employer, he has to make a choice. Either take her across the border and accept her offer of a huge reward, or leave her for dead.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShe claims she was on her way to warn him when she was ambushed and shot. But can she really be who she says she is? Trusting one’s enemy is not something either of them knows how to do, but when the stakes are this high, going it alone might not be an option.

Beyond love. Into legend.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArmed with a fabled combat suit left to her by a dying warrior race, Gabby Rojas enters the deadliest standoff of the war as a rogue sniper with one goal: to keep her husband alive at all costs. Dalton is a high school teacher, not a soldier, but he’s volunteered to fight for the good of the colonies, against her advice. Gabby, on the other hand, is a black-ops prodigy who turned her back on the military years ago. The consequences of re-entering the fray alone like this, wielding the power of her extraordinary armoured suit, could tip the balance of power in the galaxy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo reach her full potential, she must bond with the suit over six gruelling stages. She doesn’t know what form they will take, only that the final bonding is permanent, and any changes made to her will be irreversible. Can she see Dalton safely off Orontes before the final transformation? Stealth is her ally, but it’s tough to stay inconspicuous when you’re taking tactical combat to the next level. No human has seen anything like the things she can do, and word of her exploits soon spreads across the colonies, attracting the attention of powerful enemies, including her old alien nemeses, the Finaglers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the stakes rise, Gabby’s loyalties and fighting skills are tested to their limits. But through it all, the love of her life only seems to make her stronger. That, in turn, stirs ancient forces inside the biotech suit, making it far more powerful, and potentially more dangerous, than she could ever have imagined.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51268506026324,"sku":"VOLATILE","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/0687\/0612\/files\/download-912x1313_41d59439-b2ea-465d-9605-0047ba9cf0ed.png?v=1747523786"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/0687\/0612\/collections\/Alien_Safari_artwork_med.jpg?v=1738549113","url":"https:\/\/shop.robertappletonbooks.com\/collections\/standalone-ebooks.oembed","provider":"Robert Appleton Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
