A dark corner of a seedy bar on the edge of nowhere. A woman who's seen too much. A man who moves through the shadows with the grace of a cat. She's on his tail, and he's determined to find out why. Once he might have been flattered to have her checking out his ass. Now he knows women are dangerous. And far, far too expensive. But Commander Kala Decoltéir always gets her man, and she wants the space pirate they call Dancer--no matter who--or what--he is. This time, Dancer has no escape. Publisher's Note: Spaceport is a multi-author shared universe that does not need to be read in order.
Shelby loves writing off-beat tales that defy as many rules as possible. She likes chocolate with her peanut butter, Suspense with her Romance, and kink with her sex. She’s always had a hard time keeping Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Paranormal from mixing with her kink. Fortunately for Shelby, electronic publishing has opened many new doors for cross-genre authors and artists.
When you can catch her awake and not buried up to her eyebrows in work, Shelby will assure you this is the best job in the world -- she’s the keeper of dreams.
Kala works security on a space station, but that doesn't mean she doesn't crave a little fun.
Captain Jack is a pirate who plays by the rules he can respect, and is pretty sure he can talk his way around the rest.
This done in one quick read establishes the Universe in which I expect more stories will take place, based on this being a book 1. We get a feel for some of the larger conflicts and powers, some of the species... and just enough about the rules of life out here on the frontier to want to revisit this wild west style space station and see what fun these characters get up to.
I was gifted with a copy of Security and chose to share my thoughts.
Great novelette. Security is a great introduction to the Spaceport series. The reader is introduced to the commander of security for the Spaceport, Kala, a battle-bot cyborg. No longer needed in a battle scenario she has settled into a security position. Along with Kala, you'll meet space pirate, Captain Jack. Their brief dalliance has consequences with all the feels. I'm looking forward to the next in the series.
My first Shelby Morgen book and first read in the Spaceport series, a Changeling Press series about a seedy spaceport - think Deep Space Nine with lots of sex going on. My interest is peaked and I will press further on...
