Jeanie and her husband Liam settled on an abandoned moon base that is now imploding. Jeanie decided to retrieve her data stick holding her AI rather than heading for their spaceship endangering both her and Liam. Now that she has her data stick it is too late, every escape avenue is sealed off and the only means of escape is the escape pod.
The escape pod is questionable since neither Jeanie nor Liam had gone over it to ensure it was safe, but it is too late. Getting the pod free from the base was risky and caused damage but they are free to go but go where. Systems are offline including the navigation system, so they are flying blind.
The food printer is barely working and only producing grey slime, the shower is only cold water, and the fuel tank is almost empty. Keeping the ship in one piece is turning out to be a constant battle and they are just barely keeping it afloat.
Together in a small pod eventually causes Jeanie and Liam to begin arguing and it is exacerbated when Liam sends out a message asking about ending the marriage. It was Jeanie who received the reply and that is when the blame game began. Liam blamed her for risking their lives to retrieve the data stick, he blamed her for doing little around the ship because of her injured hip, an injury he caused.
She moves into another room, and they barely talk so Liam is unable to explain that the information on a divorce was so she could leave him if that was what she wanted not about him wanting to leave. When things on the ship become life or death all their anger is forgotten while they attempt to solve one problem after another.
The only answer to their request for help was from what turned out to be pirates and it was Liam who came up with a reason they should move on and leave them alone. The one constant is their sex life something they both enjoy and manage to push their anger aside for.
This novella was suspenseful watching as Jeanie and Liam fight to stay alive and find a place to land. If and when they do land the big question is what they will do and will they do it together.
Surprises, sex and suspense.
