"You left these in my rover," he stated, shoving my panties into my hand. "Thought I should return them to you." 
"Do you want a thank you?" I snapped, quickly tucking the fabric into my pocket before any of my crew could see.

Theodora Walker never claimed to be perfect. Especially when it came to her love life. The ex-military gunslinger made a name for herself as a galactic freelancer. Handling jobs from hunting down monsters to finding missing girls on her spaceship, Peacemaker, with her closest friends and the best damn crew she could ever want.
As the Captain, she never expected to catch feelings for her mechanic, Mads, and tried to overcorrect it by having a one-night stand with a stranger.
Now faced with more complications than she can handle she has to find a way to navigate her heart while also navigating the galaxy.

The Captain, the Mechanic and the One Night Stand

Dinner was silent except for the scraping of silverware on my mom’s good plates. 


My entire crew lined the dining room table, aside from Mads, who took his portion to the barn to get a head start on repairs. Javier was sitting between Ellie and Benji, tentatively eating dinner. Cutting into the roast and vegetables. 


It smelled delicious, but I was too busy staring my dad down. Waiting for him to say something, but he never did. His icy gaze fixed on his plate, jaw strained tight even as he bit down on a forkful of food. 


I could practically hear his teeth clack against the silverware.


Oh, fuck, he looked pissed. Just as angry as he was when he kicked me out.


I knew coming here was a bad idea. We should’ve just stayed in the wreckage. I would have figured it out.
