As the author of [...] I know the stress and struggle to find the right voice to go with the genre I'm working in, which is why it always amazes me when an author moves into a new genre and not only pulls it off, but makes it look seamless and easy, which is exactly what Alaina Stanford has done in this book!She's stepped into SciFi with this story, building a whole new world of laser cannons and global war. The action is both similar to her previous works in some parts but in others its way different, which makes for an exciting read in general but opens up a new type of combat by this author. It was great to see her put on a new hat and that she looked good wearing it.Romance is here as well, which isn't my cup of tea, but it moves the story forward and also helps build tension, so not only was it essential in the drive of the plot, it made it bearable for the non romance reader.Overall, this was a great read for both Stanford's existing writer base and newbies who enjoy scifi.
