Captain Lyra III is known for his vicious attitude and brilliance in battle. Second youngest of the infamously passionate and handsome sons of Lyra, he’s a born leader and doesn’t take no for an answer. Except this time. Acer is facing a future that seems like a nightmare, a future that has shaken him and made him realise that the one thing he truly wanted in life may have just slipped through his grasp—his engineer, Stella.
Stella fell for Acer the moment she was transferred to his ship by his brother, Captain Lyra II. A year on his ship and never being noticed by him unless she’s done something wrong, she’s come to accept that she won’t be the one to tame this prince’s passionate heart, but it doesn’t make her feelings disappear and doesn’t stop her dreaming that she might capture him yet.
Attacked en route to Lyra Prime they find themselves stranded alone in the middle of deep space and things reach boiling point when the climate control breaks down. Trapped with only each other for company, it’s not long before the truth comes out about their feelings for each other and Acer’s reason for returning to Lyra Prime.
When Stella discovers Acer is duty bound to marry a woman of Lyran aristocracy, she offers him a night to remember her by, but will it be enough or will it cause them more pain than pleasure? Returning to Lyra Prime, will Stella’s heart falter or will she rise to the challenge and fight for Acer? Will Acer be able to find the strength to forsake his family in the name of true love?

What a great round up to this short series. I really enjoyed hearing how everything worked out between Acer and Stella. Their story is one that took place over a much longer time period than the other, a year in fact. I was worried there for just a minute during the wedding, but I love how that one worked itself out. What a banging entrance. Well done to Felicity Heaton for an amazing novella series. I look forward to reading more of her books.
Book four was my least favorite or rather Acer was my least favorite Lyra Son. The overall story was ok but I did not like that even after Acer fell in love he was still going to marry someone else using honor bound as an excuse. Its not honor to marry someone that you do not love nor is it fair to the person that he is marrying. The marriage came way too close in my opinion, I mean he was saying his vows right before he was "rescued". Meaning, he would have married a stranger if Stella would not have crashed the wedding. I also did not like his treatment of his Bride-to-Be during the wedding. It wasn't her fault that he couldn't stand up to his own parents..
