Dark Space

Dark Space Series, Book 1

Brady Garrett needs to go home. He's a conscripted recruit on Defender Three, one of a network of stations designed to protect the Earth from alien attack. He's also angry, homesick, and afraid. If he doesn't get home he'll lose his family, but there's no way back except in a body bag.

Cameron Rushton needs a heartbeat. Four years ago Cam was taken by the Faceless - the alien race that almost destroyed Earth. Now he's back, and when the doctors make a mess of getting him out of stasis, Brady becomes his temporary human pacemaker. Except they're sharing more than a heartbeat: They're sharing thoughts, memories, and some very vivid dreams.

Not that Brady's got time to worry about his growing attraction to another guy, especially the one guy in the universe who can read his mind. It doesn't mean anything. It's just biochemistry and electrical impulses. It doesn't change the truth: Brady's alone in the universe.

Now the Faceless are coming, and there's nothing anyone can do. You can't stop your nightmares. Cam says everyone will live, but Cam's probably a traitor and a liar like the military thinks. But that's okay. Guys like Brady don't expect happy endings.

Contains mature themes.

Really good story. Compelling plot, your heart breaks for the characters sometimes. I keep thinking about it and can't wait to read the next in the series

Everything I ever wanted. Ever.

I have been looking for a romance driven New Adult MM spaceship drama with these EXACT FREAKING TROPES. One bed?!? Forced proximity?!? Omg. It’s exactly for me, this book. I wasn’t bored for a second. I finished it in a day, cleaning my whole house. I’m recommending it on booktok for folks disappointed by Ocean’s Echo.

LOVED THIS. Buying the next one. And the physical copies. Obsessed.

Great audiobook listen

story/plot was excellently woven. performance was outstanding. could hardly put it down. can't wait to listen to more books from this author.

I cried like 17 times.

This book really took me by surprise. It was recommended by someone on Reddit so I took a chance. Wow. I haven't cared for characters like this in a long time. Highly recommend for unusual, but beautiful romance with military sci-fi.

Wow!

This story is worth more then five stars. Hands down. The writing was fantastic, it was dark, gripping, makes you feel all the feels. The narration was perfect. Yep ten stars
