"definitely a one-sitting read"
Something is not right with the universe. Captain Trilby Elliot is broke. Her boyfriend has just
dumped her, and she is in need of funds -- fast. When a
high tech fighter-craft, belonging to a completely
despicable race of beings, crash lands on the planet she
is
parked on working on repairs, things begin to look up.
Following the salvager rule of finders keepers, she
intended to scrounge around for spare parts and anything
else she might be able to make a profit from. She never
expected the pilot to still be alive. As if crashing on a deserted -- and deadly -- planet
wasn't
enough to ruin Rhis' day, he has to contend with Captain
Elliot and her determination that Finder is Keeper.
Unbeknownst to her, Rhis has his own brand of finders
keepers planned for the lovely captain, which not only
includes her ship, but her as well. Now he just has to
save the universe from whoever is silently maneuvering
things towards war and prove to the lovely captain that
they were meant to be together - all without telling her
who he really is. FINDER'S KEEPERS is a romantic science fiction novel by
the talented Linnea Sinclair. Linnea builds a believable
universe, fleshes out her characters, draws the reader
into
the story, and does it all so well that when the book is
finished you look at the clock and wonder how time flew
that fast. Definitely an "auto-read" author for me, as
well as being one I would recommend to all fans of
futuristic sci fi romances.
