Gravity of the Heart (Strange New Worlds/Captain Christopher Pike)

Stone and Starlight follows the sweeping journey of Venna of Caelyra-a warrior, mother, and leader-whose life is shaped by love, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond between her people and the stars. When the ancient enemy known as the Vok'Tal rises again, Venna fights to defend her world while raising a family with Starfleet Captain Christopher Pike. Together they navigate war, politics, and the fragile promise of peace, all while trying to shield their children from the dangers of a galaxy in turmoil.

From the war-torn streets of Caelyra to the luminous skies of Federation space, Venna carries both the burden of leadership and the tenderness of motherhood. As years pass, victories hard-won give way to quiet joys, and the family she fought to protect becomes the legacy of a thriving world.

At once intimate and epic, Stone and Starlight is a tale of resilience, heritage, and the enduring strength of love that shines across generations.
