Description
Join the colony, they said. Start an amazing new life, they said…
Get ready for a thrilling adventure in Heartspeed, where a recent high school graduate stumbles upon an offer too extraordinary to ignore: a fresh start on a new planet, with free transport, lodging, and meals. But this interstellar opportunity comes with a catch–leaving her old life behind with no guarantee of return.
Meet Leigh Shires, a young woman with her beloved dog, Baxter. Drawn by the promise of a new beginning and perhaps the handsome pilot she meets in an Earth cafe, Leigh gets in line for an evaluation and mysterious DNA test for the one-way trip.
She soon discovers that the planet and its orbiting space station hold secrets far beyond a simple “fresh start.” Why does the Chief Geneticist seem so intensely interested in Leigh’s unique DNA and robust immune system, calling it a “jackpot?”
With whispers of undiscovered mutagens, pathogens, and potential encounters with intelligent indigenous life, Leigh’s dream of a fresh start may quickly turn into a fight for survival.
Will Leigh uncover the shocking truth behind the distant colony? Can she build a new life light-years away from Earth, especially when secrets and unexpected feelings begin to surface? Dive into Heartspeed and embark on an unforgettable journey of risk, discovery, love, and the ultimate question of what it means to leave everything behind for a second chance.
