Taking Stock

Résumé

"Her last days on Earth could be out of this world."

Zoe has accepted that a brain tumor will make this Christmas her last. She plans to spend it in the Caribbean, hoping some gorgeous guy will scoop her off the beach for a passionate affair, a one-night stand anything just to be held and wanted.

When she discovers horror of horrors she has no unread books for the plane trip, she heads out for an early-hours run to good old 24/7 Supa-Mart.

Rowe s and Kai s lives are so regulated by their home planet s equivalent of Big Brother they even have to hide their thoughts. Not easy when a secret attraction exists between them. When they re chosen for an off-world reality show involving unsuspecting humans, they jump at this no-rules chance to open their hearts.

When the giant store s exits clang shut, trapping Zoe and several others inside including two impossibly sexy guys Zoe figures she won t need a beach for a no-strings romance. But it doesn t take long for her to realize she could be facing the end of her short future sooner than she expected.
