When Stars Collide

Darkon Warrior #3

by S.E. Gilchrist

The third full-length novel in SE Gilchrist's bestselling erotic SF series mixes one sexy spy, a soldier looking for salvation and an unlikely mission to save the world. Reece, contortionist bubble dancer and part-time spy, has one goal-a safe haven and independent life far from the war. But her plans go awry and her future becomes dangerously uncertain when she is falsely accused of the murders of her friend and a Darkon traitor. Now her new list of goals includes payback. In her way is Ulrac, a banished Darkon patroller responsible for incarcerating females for barbaric 'treatments' and 'research' on the planet Isla. He's determined to use the capture of the spy and her intel to win the approval of his father-a hard-line Traditionalist with his own agenda-and help him overthrow the current ruler of Darkos. But the war of the Seven Galaxies has reached a critical stage, and personal plans and goals suddenly hold very little meaning. The enemy is poised to unleash a terrible weapon and no one stands between him and total domination of all the universes. No one-except Reece and Ulrac.

When Stars Collide by S.E. Gilchrist is a bold fusion of passion, peril, and interstellar intrigue a space-faring adventure where desire and destiny collide at the edge of the galaxy.

In this third installment of the Darkon Warriors series, Gilchrist deftly balances the explosive tension of galactic warfare with the raw, emotional chemistry between two unforgettable leads. Reece, a fierce contortionist and spy yearning for freedom, and Ulrac, a disgraced patroller torn between duty and redemption, find themselves bound together by circumstance and by a growing attraction that could either destroy or save them both.

What follows is an adrenaline-charged journey through rebellion, redemption, and forbidden desire, set against the backdrop of a war threatening to engulf seven galaxies. Gilchrist’s writing is immersive and cinematic, her world-building rich with sensory detail from the pulse of alien worlds to the heat of stolen moments.

As the fate of countless lives hangs in the balance, When Stars Collide explores what happens when love and loyalty clash with legacy and power. It’s erotic science fiction at its most daring a story that proves even in the darkest corners of space, the heart still seeks connection.

Fans of Nalini Singh’s Psy-Changeling, Sherrilyn Kenyon’s The League, and Lara Adrian’s Midnight Breed will find Gilchrist’s universe intoxicating a blend of high-octane action, sensual tension, and emotional truth that lingers long after the final page.
