Eileen Conroy has always embraced the concepts of DIY and self-help. As an acclaimed member of the Jekhan Service Corps, she’s well-known for her get-it-done demeanor and no-nonsense communication style. There isn’t a challenge she isn’t willing to take on, except one… Edgar Salehi… If Edgar knows how to do one thing at all, after so many years on Jekh, though, it’s get to the bottom of a mystery. Eileen quitting him didn’t make sense. However, a chance run-in more than a year after their breakup reveals Eileen’s on the delivery end of a pregnancy. And he thinks he knows exactly who the father is. The evidence is written right on his daughter’s face! His only shot at winning Eileen back, is starting from scratch and trying friendship again, but he has to be careful. If Eileen discovers he’s been keeping secrets the same way she has, she’ll cut him off for good, and this time, he has far more at stake than the last! While the Corps’ most infamous couple grapples with their intense collision of pride and passion, brazen brothel owner, Zilkat, wrestles with a status change of his own. He’s caught the eye of a sophisticated and bookish Terran who, strangely, wants his companionship above all else. But men, like Stefan, aren’t supposed to fall in love with men, like Zilkat. If Zilkat finally lets down his guard, and allows his long-repressed emotions to expand, he may land himself a romance. Or… he’ll get punished for wishing for more than he believes he deserves…
