Synopsis: When Samantha Gerris began working for
the Space Island Group (SIG), she had no idea she was taking her first steps on a path to the ultimate adventure! Living in a time of rapid technological advancements, Samantha balances her family life with her career as a physicist aiding in the design of a luxurious space resort. Although she enjoyed the challenge of creating a popular destination for adventure seeking tourists, she was happy to keep her feet firmly planted on Earth. Yet after tragedy disrupts her conventional life, Samantha reluctantly travels to Space to join her family working at the space resort.

Her new assignment leads to the discovery of a secret alliance between SIG and an alien race. After accidentally boarding the alien’s starship, Samantha is forced to travel across the galaxy to their home planet. The ensuing voyage reveals a new world—literally!—to Samantha, one filled with friendship, danger…and true love.
