Book description
The Company appreciates its genetically modified humans...as long as
they don't get any smart ideas. Salvia is a genetically modified human,
at home in the oceans of Jupiter's moon, Europa. Intelligent, young,
lonely, she demands that the mysterious "company" that employs
her send a companion or she'll never work for them again. With no
choice, the company creates Rhus, a young brash male. But a relationship
that begins with mistrust ends up forging deep links between the pair
and they look forward to a happy life together. Unfortunately, Salvia's
tactic of holding the company to ransom was not well received. While
they may have introduced Rhus to Europa, the company are mulling over
other options. Options that include the very real possibility of death
for Salvia. Or Rhus. Or both. Reader Advisory: This story is best read
in a hot-tub! Preferably, with some company. Publisher's Note: This
story has been previously released as part of the Seeing Stars anthology
by Total-E-Bound _x000D_ I am a child of the global South. In the
past, I have run my own IT consultancy business, bookshop, gym, swimming
pool business and martial arts school. So far in my life, I have been a
corporate trainer, lecturer, satirist, martial arts instructor, project
manager, political essayist, small business owner and am now proud to
call myself a fiction writer. Although I love romance, I have to admit
my first love is science-fiction and the opportunity to combine both
genres was irresistible! I do hope you enjoy reading my stories.
Together with my husband, we have lived and worked in Europe, Asia,
Australia and North America. We adore our two children and tolerate as
necessary evils our two grumpy, fur-shedding cats.
