Alex Le Soum is an author who isn't afraid to throw a little physical romance in with her sci-fi. If the sliding metal doors had been pulled back on some of Captain Kirk's space romps, the result might have been something like this.Hammer is a womanizing young spaceship pilot who since childhood has been in love with his untouchable cousin Aisha, who now also happens to be the Captain of his ship. Unable to have her, he frolics from female to female, but it isn't until their small ship receives an SOS from an asteroid mining operation that we sense Captain Aisha might have feelings of her own.As a nail-biting rescue draws Hammer down a dangerous asteroid mineshaft, it becomes obvious that we're in the hands of an expert storyteller who knows exactly where and how to push her readers' buttons.Read Freefall but be forewarned, this exciting space drama has a way of dragging readers onto the further adventures of these fascinating characters who can also be found in Le Soum's Kolian Chronicles book series.
