Greeting from the Cade-iverse!
Things continue to heat up out here as Joran Stark is unable to resist the chance for some unexpected publicity. Of course the trouble it gets him in later will be his own fault ... but we won't hold that against him, right?
Enjoy this story snippet from Captive of Pleasure; the Space Pirate's Woman, and then stop by some of the other Sci Fi Romance authors' blogs to check out their new stories, too.
“We’re all on the big holovids now, boss,” a huge, craggy-faced
man noted, his deep voice like soft thunder. “The Travel Channel beams all over
the galaxy. Not sure that’s a good thing.”
Var was a Space Forces veteran with a stoic demeanor and a dislike
of uniforms and crowds in that order.
Joran nodded, humor still etched on his face. “You speak truth,
Var. And in the filthiest dens in the galaxy, they’re mocking us as we
speak. But let ‘em.”
“We mocked them,” Qala said instantly, on her feet as well. “You
watch--most of the galaxy will believe what that fool says about us. And
meanwhile, we go on doing what we want, when we want--flying under the satcom.”
Joran nodded. “My thoughts exactly. Most beings believe all they
see, and most of what they hear.”
“Loved the part where you said ‘Why am I known as El Zhazid, The
Storm?’” mimicked a tall young man with ragged light brown hair. “’Because we
just drift across the plains, moving here and there like the wind.’”
The crowd laughed again.
“Thank you, Haro. That was good, wasn't it?” Joran agreed. “Always
give them something that’s near enough to the truth that they can dock and
think they've found the real entrance.”
The story debuts later this month! Sign up for my newsletter to be the first to know when it's available.
