LEGEND BEYOND THE STARS
BLURB:
A race on the edge of extinction. The women who can save them. And an enemy determined to destroy them all.
Seeking redemption from a mission gone terribly wrong, Captain Alana Knight volunteers for a dangerous operation to transport colonists to a new earth-like planet. But on board the alien traders’ spaceship, she learns of a galactic war raging for power. A power that can be transformed into a terrible weapon.
When the colonists are betrayed, Alana’s mission is re-defined. Nothing will stop her from keeping those in her care safe and finding a passage home.
Commander Tarak El Rajan is humanoid, male and a warrior determined to preserve the honour of the Darkon people. A rendezvous with devious traders, leads to an unexpected payload consisting of females from an unknown planet. In particular, one who stirs long forgotten emotions in his heart.
But with strict orders to transport all females to the planet Isla for research purposes, any deviation means treason.
In a world of uncertainty, where the wrong decision could mean the death of an entire race, the last thing either of these two soldiers expects or needs is to fall in love.

Reviews of Original Version
I really liked this. A band of women destined for a new life, tricked and duped right from the off, not knowing who to trust or believe. They get into one scrape after another, and more or less go from the fat to the frying pan in quick succession….I got caught up in the characters and I'll admit to having moist eyes by the time I got to the end.
Jean Barrett’s Reviews, May 2013 on Goodreads
Awesome! When I read Aliens in the synopsis of this book I didn't expect this..........the book is not fast paced, nor is it a slow paced read, but the way the story of the Darkon race is told is perfect. There's enough in depth storyline to drag the reader into the story and not let go. Plus the last twist leaves it open for a 2nd story.
