Category – Science Fiction

Caitlin Driskoll was a typical military officer’s wife: she tackled the day-to-day challenges of a normal life, and had optimistic dreams of the future with her husband. Then one day everything changed. She awakes from a cryogenic stasis in a new day and age. Caitlin also finds that she is in the middle of a war that stretches across space and that she has been made a reluctant worker onboard the warship Blanchard. Her husband, her life, their dreams, everything she’d cherished was now a distant memory. Confused and feeling mistreated, she places her energy into fighting for the human rights of those too afraid to help themselves. She stands up to a demanding Colonel, who at first impression seems cold and one-dimensional. She later finds that he’s strangely alluring and that he may be the only man that can fill a void in her heart left open by her husband.

Marine officer Colonel Medoro Keegan the Executive Officer (XO) of the Blanchard heart had hardened after the death of his wife. A former combat pilot, he felt that his current assignment as the XO was less than desirable. And it showed in his demeanor and most of the time the crew felt the brunt of his resentment. When he met Caitlin Driskoll, a newly awaken recruit, almost immediately his heart began to soften. She stood up to him and did not back down, and at first this angered Medoro, later he finds it to be an attraction.
