Synopsis

It's a night like any other on board the Icarus. Then, catastrophe strikes: the massive luxury spaceliner is yanked out of hyperspace and plummets into the nearest planet. Lilac LaRoux and Tarver Merendsen survive. And they seem to be alone.

Lilac is the daughter of the richest man in the universe. Tarver comes from nothing, a young war hero who learned long ago that girls like Lilac are more trouble than they're worth. But with only each other to rely on, Lilac and Tarver must work together, making a tortuous journey across the eerie, deserted terrain to seek help.

at first, this story was giving me major ‘titanic in space’ vibes. and then it became like ‘castaway in space.’ and im not mad about any of it. i thought the story was fun. the sci-fi aspect isnt the strongest (if youre comparing it to other books in the genre), but the world is cool and the characte......more

And whilst I won't give anything away, I finished it like I had a spell over me. "It was nice, ya know? Just r......more
