Maeve was searching for Tessa. She found something else instead. When her friend disappears, leaving only a short note behind, Maeve is convinced that Tessa hasn't gone willingly. Desperate for answers, she takes a chance on a beautiful stranger - even though it means travelling further from home than she ever thought possible. Elswyth is a Hamadryad, the spirit of her ship's heartree. Both revered and restricted, she exists on the outside of Tirian life, where forever seems like a fantasy. Maeve is the answer to all her prayers - but Elswyth isn't the only one praying. Ashton and Willow are Unclaimed, conducting an illicit relationship that, if found out, could cost more than just their positions on the ship. Maeve is strong enough to claim them both - provided she wants to. Can Maeve open her heart to a future she never expected? Or will outside danger threaten her chance to find Tessa - and love? Into Orbit is the second book in the high-heat alien romance series, Advena Abductions.
