Shielder — A New Science Fiction Romance (Book 1, Shielder Series) - Plot & Excerpts
She paused to study the screen, her expression rapt as she scanned the data presented there. Distracted from plotting position coordinates to transmit to Sabin, Chase leaned back to watch her. Oblivious to his scrutiny, she soaked up the knowledge on the screen like a wilted corona plant absorbing water, her dark eyes shining with the wonder of discovery. Without her usual mask of distrust, she looked almost pretty. Her face still held the gauntness of hardship, but her skin glowed with golden tones, and her tousled mahogany hair had some body and sheen to it. Obviously, she made use of the cleansing stall in her cabin's lav. She leaned forward eagerly as the image on the screen changed. Regret swept through Chase. Once he'd been just as hungry for knowledge, eager to learn anything and everything. He'd been innocent and trusting and zealous in his desire to help others. Once. Now he knew better. Bitter hatred and self accusation disintegrated the regret. He had learned the hard way—trust no one.
