Broken Earth
She wanted to die.
He was looking for a reason to live.
Éimhear Nita Monday was strong and stable --until she wasn't.
When her husband leaves her after her third miscarriage, the solid ground she'd had underfoot turns to shifting quicksand.
She's ready to see what's on the other side, and when she wakes up in the arms of a golden god with eight arms and giant angel wings, she thinks she's succeeded.
But that god is her alien rescuer, and she's not on Earth or Heaven. She's on another planet.
After losing his unit and leaving his military career, Corporal Jayaravi Das has found a measure of peace in solitude and meditation.
When he's offered a job that will break that solitude, he wants to refuse -- but he's never been able to resist swooping in and saving someone in need.
Escorting a sealed stasis pod to a secure location seems simple enough--until that pod opens and an offworlder woman, shaky with stasis sickness, falls out of it and into his arms.
