Project Pardus (2025)

About this item

An entire space station disappears—and someone wants to keep it that way. All I want is to make a scientific breakthrough that will earn me a legit place in my field. But when I finally nab the perfect project, it's snatched away from me by the granting agency, clearly puppeted by someone powerful. I refuse to let them bury this, so my ex (the four-armed emotion-sensing alien, Yarrow) and I go after the evidence we need to prove something weird—maybe even sinister—is going on. When our ship disappears right out from under us, I can no longer risk anyone else for my research...if only everyone would listen when I tell them that. What with folks I meet trying to make friends, and Yarrow following me halfway across the Galaxy, I can't shake off the people who care about me. Even when I flee my lab. Even when my ship is sabotaged. Even when I shatter space itself. *** Tropes: second chance romance, alien
