Star Date

by Y.M. Nelson

Star Date (not too distant future)

Brandon is a diehard Trekkie. He’s watched every Star Trek movie and franchise episode multiple times, he has several collectible cosplay uniforms in his closet—Will Riker’s being his favorite, and he’s been to dozens of conventions. But he’s never met—or fought with—anyone like Phoenix before.

Phoenix is looking forward to her first Star Trek convention—until she meets Brandon. He’s nothing like the Riker character she loves to hate: he’s combative, socially awkward, and off-putting. But he’s so adorable.

Phoenix and Brandon keep running into each other, each time more heated than the next. With three days of convention to get through, will they get past the hostility and find what they know is there—attraction and perhaps even love?

A very cute and sweet read with a touch of spice. It was an enjoyable read to help me pass the time in the waiting room.

Darling!
This story took me right into a fan world of favorite, but new characters. This world is fun, familiar, and completely believable! I loved spending time at this con, however short it may have been. And I still want a STARS OUT Ball.

Super cute read- if Star Trek, sweetly geeky characters, and a nice dose of spice are your cup of tea, then you can’t go wrong with this quick read.
