Guys, I was taking one for the team here. The cover was beyond stupid (and a little creepy, is that her front or her back?), the description was ridiculous, and it looked like review gold. And then I read it. And it’s bad, it’s definitely bad, but not burn it down rage inducing. It was clearly a vanity project gone horribly wrong.

They meet due to the climax of the Chase Me, and their […]

She has decided that she wants her work to be worthwhile, beyond just making companies richer or whiling away in academia. She is hired by fake NASA (ASD) by Eugene Parsons, the head of engineering. Parsons got to be the head of engineering by demanding only the best from everyone, including himself. Competent is the […]
