Martus pressed a hand on my back to comfort me.
His touch succeeded, and for a moment I felt like maybe this wasn't beyond our grasp. "We're getting out of this. Right?"

Astrid McCormick hasn't been the same since she escaped the alien prison that held her and her sister. When a handsome green stranger meets her on the decks of the pleasure cruiser Romero, she wonders if she's just found her way back home. That was before they were imprisoned—and before a team of alien pirates raids the Romero. Astrid and Martus need to learn to work together if either of them wants to get out alive. unless Astrid's mysterious gift separates them forever.

Abandoned with A Space Marine is the second installment of Sierra Storm's Space Marine Brides series, a clean but steamy take on deep space adventure.
