As the MP in
charge of security on His Majesty’s Starship, Warren E. Boone,
Marine Sergeant Ikira “Ike” Payne commands respect and authority. A
typical Marine, Ike is a dedicated, strong killing machine willing
to die to protect those she serves. Yet as a woman, Ike is also
lonely and looking for companionship and although she has sex, what
she wants is a relationship.
When a
terrorist attempts to kill the Wengley Ambassador to Palea on the
Boone, an intelligence officer is called in to help solve the crime
and catch the shooter. Many might have been upset that an outsider
was called in to help but not Ike. She wants all the help she can
get, especially if it involves Lieutenant Devon Henson. Something
about the young officer attracts her and if they can catch the
terrorists, they might just get the opportunity to explore that
attraction.
For the
Love of Payne is a
fast paced futuristic tale with fantastic characters and a twisting
plot. From the Emperor and his four wives to the strange and
unusual alien creatures, Ms. Aaron manages to bring to life a whole
new world aboard the Starship Boone. Especially interesting was
Ike. At the beginning of the story, she’s all bad-ass Marine but as
the story unfolds and her attraction and interest in Devon grows,
her feminine side begins to emerge. She is a woman at the top in a
masculine field and has never felt the urge or need to be feminine.
Although Devon is just as attracted to Ike as she is to him, once
she allows her “Ikira” side to emerge, things just get better and
better. Their sexual escapades are unbelievably hot, so be
prepared! In addition to all of that, there’s a little mystery
about the terrorists and the shooting that will keep you guessing
until the end.
