Admiral Tsab Loj has one job: save his people from marauding fleets and intergalactic doom. Falling for a stubborn terraformer with questionable life choices? Not on his tactical agenda. But when an enemy threat drags him into the virtual Metaroam, he meets May—a disheveled genius with a knack for stumbling into trouble and zero patience for Zorvani admirals barking orders. She’s infuriating, magnetic, and keeps disappearing on him. May thought the Metaroam would be a safe place for entertainment, not a war zone with grumpy alien commanders and existential stakes. Now her survival depends on working with Tsab, a golden-eyed perfectionist who manages to be annoyingly competent and distractingly attractive at the same time. Trust doesn’t come easily when reality itself is up for debate, but they’ll need to figure it out fast—because the fate of the Three Realms is at stake. They’re a disaster waiting to happen: a battle-worn alien with a hero complex and an engineer who’s allergic to order. But when war threatens to tear apart their worlds, they’ll have to decide what’s worth saving: their people, their lives, or the fragile, impossible connection neither of them expected.
