Starside: A Novel

She would rather burn the world to ash than trust the one man standing between her and everything she's ever wanted.

When rival navigator Caspian Voss is assigned as her co-pilot on a mission that could rewrite the fate of their fractured kingdom, Sera knows exactly what he is: her greatest competition, her oldest adversary, and the most infuriating person she has ever had the misfortune of knowing. They've spent years dismantling each other's careers from opposite ends of the galaxy. Now they're forced to share a ship smaller than her patience.

But the stars have never cared about convenience.

Somewhere between their third argument and their first near-death experience, the battle lines begin to blur. Caspian is sharper than she remembered, funnier too, and the way he looks at her when he thinks she isn't watching makes her chest do something unforgivable. Sera tells herself she's only keeping him close because she needs him. She tells herself this often. She's starting to believe it less.

*Starside* is a breathless, slow-burn romance about two people who built their entire identities around hating each other—and the terrifying moment they realize hate was always just love with nowhere to go.

Because the hardest battle was never against the enemy.

It was against themselves.
