    Summary

    There were no hard and fast rules when it came to soulmarks, but there were a few generally accepted principles:

    1. The marks are echoes of your soulmate’s first waking thoughts, usually in their native language.

    2. The marks last anywhere from a few hours to a full day, depending on the intensity of emotion.

    3. They appear sporadically, not every first thought is focused enough to appear as a mark.

    4. They appear on your body the moment your soulmate wakes, regardless of time zone.

    5. It’s rude to examine or comment on someone else’s marks

    6. Evan “Buck” Buckley doesn’t have a soulmate.

    Okay, maybe that last one was known only to two people, Buck himself and his sister Maddie, and Maddie refused to agree with him on this matter. Buck maintained however, that 28 years was plenty long enough to wait for an echo of his own without finally l accepting that, clearly, he was one of those unlucky few who didn’t get a soulmate. Sure, not everyone found their person- their echo, but most people at least got marks that gave them hope that their soulmate was out there somewhere. Not Buck, though. No, Buck was obviously meant to be alone forever. Or at least between hookups.

    Summary

    Grace thinks he’s fine being alone and plans to spend the rest of his days as a teacher, relaxing on his biodome beach. He already has everything he could ever want; who needs human connection? So when the Eridians find a bloody submarine near their planet, he's surprised by how the terrified man who came along with it captures his attention.

    Now, Grace has a new goal: to get Simon to trust him enough to open up about his past, the injuries they found him with, and the reason he refuses to sleep.

    ----

    Blending of movie genres ~ Simon experiences PHM-level hope for the first time in his life, and Grace gets thrown headfirst into horrors beyond his comprehension.

    Summary

    There's 1 in 70,000 people on the planet who have the gene needed to survive the Hail Mary's expedition. In that limited pool, 1 in maybe 1000 had the necessary skills needed for the mission — more dire still, even less people were willing to volunteer for what is essentially a suicide mission.

    When an explosion killed not only their science officers but also their engineers, Eva Stratt makes the tough decision to put 2 people on the spacecraft that no one was expecting to be even be candidates.

    One is a middle-school science teacher.

    One is a convicted eco terrorist.

    Summary

    There weren't many things that Grace would trade his peaceful life on Erid for.

    Honestly, most aspects of his new life were far better than his old one.

    But sometimes he wished for human company, someone to understand slightly better how he felt.

    So when Adrian's team had discovered a human trapped in a submersible while surveying other planets that might need treatment with the Taumeba, he'd said yes without hesitation to looking after the man.

    Rocky trills an understanding affirmative on the other side. They’ve been over this at least thrice by now.


    Grace and Rocky find a man more dead than alive. It takes a village.
