A CAPTIVATING NEAR-FUTURE ROMANCE, WHERE SEA OF TRANQUILITY MEETS WINTER'S ORBIT, TOLD AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF THE FIRST LUNAR COLONY
In 2073, controversial agronomist Dr. Alex Cole has dedicated her life to mutagenetic food, the only solution to feeding a world torn apart by climate change. When fierce opposition wipes out her lab funding, a surprising lifeline appears in the form of Mansoor Al Kaabi, a charismatic Emirati businessman who needs a sustainable food supply for his guests at the Moon's first hotel.
As Alex smuggles in illegal chickens, fights a vexing tomato fungus, and dreams of olive groves on the Moon, she is surprised to find herself falling in love not just with the lunar colony but with Mansoor, whose vision for the future extends far beyond luxury hotels.
Back on Earth, eccentric genius Victor Beard and Mansoor's younger brother, Rashid, develop feelings for each other as they work to push for the political changes that could provide humanity with a second chance. When eco-terrorists threaten the lunar colony, they all must choose what they're really living for--their grandiose visions of saving humankind, or one another?
A delightful blend of political intrigue, romance, and the daunting challenge of establishing a long-term colony on the Moon. With sparks flying among the cast of thoughtfully complex characters, readers will root for the budding relationships set against the harsh backdrop of humanity's survival--perfect for fans of Mary Robinette Kowal and For All Mankind!--T. A. Chan, author of One Last Game
