Dawn of Eve

Sera Dao is on the run. When the Lanian empire finally collapsed she had found herself alone, a pirate without a crew, in the central systems of the Commonwealth. Hunted by the Rangers she must find her way to her home world of Unie in the far reaches, unfortunately only smugglers and Commonwealth cruisers go to such depths.

Which leaves her only one choice.

Captain Blais Unton has a reputation in the central systems as one of the best smugglers this side of the galaxy. However when Sera agrees to pay his exorbitant fee for transport to Unie she doesn't expect to be drawn into his rag tag crew of homeless interlopers, genetic experiments gone wrong, assassins, and a particularly dangerous stowaway Blais refuses to kick off his ship because he's in love with him.

And through all this a civil war is brewing on the horizon.
