I'm not sure what number this book is but although it was short the story was very good. I'm determined to finish this series then hope that the others are put into a full novel format.This story continues the return of the Nine a race who had previously lived on an earth like planet that was settled by humans (Gaians). They were attacked by a race of aliens (Tokkel) that tortured and enslaved them but they were saved by the Nine when they returned to their planet. With a huge spaceship orbiting the planet, the Nine are meeting and interacting with the Gaians and many have found love with Gaians who share their talents.Ularica is a genius at adapting Tokkel devices to suit human needs. She manages to design and build equipment and products that help the Gaians live better. The Nine have seen some of her designs and offer her a chance to work with their engineers and exchange ideas. Deniir who is an engineer for the People of the Light has been sent to recruit her. Ularica has refused to work with the Gaians because they want her to design products and devices for war. After agreeing to work on the spaceship with the Nine she is enthralled with their equipment and the ability to create whatever she is interested in making. Along with her feelings for Deniir, she's thinking the Nine are not so bad after all.This is another charming story, although very short.
