As I am still writing the third book in the Farseek Mercenary Series, I find a review from a reader of Book 2, Lieutenant's Mate expressing disappointment that some of the same events were depicted in Book 1 of the series. The purpose of this retelling is to show shared events from the new couple's view point.
The series is consists of four romances of four couples whose lives intersect through one series of events. Because the books are written in first person alternating points of view in the same timeline, it's almost impossible to avoid talking about events from the previous book. Each person plays a different part in the same series events.
Rather than write one book with all the characters in third person, I am writing four books about four couples experiencing the same chain of events.
It all starts in the present with four Earth women who are abducted by alien slavers. They bond on the slave ship before they are rescued by the Farseek Mercenaries. They stick together because of their common origin.
Each of the four find their fated mates or soul mates among the alien mercenaries, and the people abducted by slavers that the mercenaries rescue. Book Three, Sahvin's Mate is a crossover from the Narovian Mates Series, as Sahvin is a Narovian feline abducted from earth where he was serving the Alliance as a covert agent.
As the story opens, he has been enslaved at the Breskaa mining colony for months, forced into hard labor, underfed and mistreated. Believing he is going to die there, he has nearly given up hope. Enter Commander Maktu and his mercenaries.
On Dreadnaught One, Sahvin meets Nora from Earth recognizing her immediately as his meomee, the Narovian word for soul mate. This event was portrayed in Book 1 but told from the viewpoint of Harper Avery and Zared Maktu. Sahvin's experience of the event is wholly different than their experience. It also differs from Pyrr's and Scarlet's experiences as well.
Look for Sahvin's Mate coming soon in January.
