Hearts of Obsidian SIGNAL

Book 8

By: Lyra Starling

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Three years ago, Nina Volkov listened to her fiancé die over a comm channel she couldn't save him through. She's been frozen ever since, efficient, professional, utterly closed off. The settlement needs her skills. They don't need her heart.

But Kethran has other plans.

The Vothren scout leader has watched Nina for months, tracking her signal, learning her rhythms, falling for the fierce woman behind the ice. At 245 years old, he knows what he wants. And he's willing to wait forever to earn her trust.

Then the Hollow attack and everything changes.

When the largest assault in memory threatens to destroy their settlement, Nina finds herself coordinating a desperate battle while Kethran walks into darkness to face a monster older than his species. The silence on his channel becomes her worst nightmare made real.

But this time, she refuses to let fear win.

This time, she fights for what she wants.

As the bond between them deepens into something neither can deny, Nina must confront the truth she's been running from: loving someone doesn't mean losing them. Sometimes it means finally finding yourself.

Some connections, once made, never fade.
Some loves, once found, never end.
Some signals, once heard, become the rhythm of your heart.

SIGNAL is Book 8 in the Hearts of Obsidian series. This steamy sci-fi romance features a devoted alien hero who gives new meaning to "I'll wait for you," a heroine learning that vulnerability is strength, soul-deep bonding, and a guaranteed happily ever after.

Each book follows a new couple and can be enjoyed as a standalone, but reading in order enhances the experience of this interconnected world.
