Months after the liberation of the Red Palace, freed prisoner Max Murphy is still there, hoping for the return of his stolen ship and trying to forget the day he lost everything. Meanwhile, ex-Li pilot Jiang Tai is keeping his head down and wishing he could forget the secrets he carries. Or just forget anything at all. When the station is blockaded Max and Tai are sent off on a desperate mission to end the siege. Spending weeks on an awkwardly small ship with a weird, sleep-obsessed, former pirate of the most fanatical sort is not Max's idea of a good time -- even if Tai is kind of cute. Tai never reckoned on a long trip with a hot mess like Max, who doesn't even maintain a regular bed time. But the time they spend together helps both of them start to put their bad memories in the past. In the end they'll lay the ghosts of their memories by doing something worth remembering together.Voir livre
