Space . . . the final frontier . . . or is it? There are many who would say that there is no frontier more forbidding than a romantic relationship between two people. But what if one's a human and the other's an alien? What if a starship captain is in love with the artificial personality that guides his spaceship? Just how will we solve these matters of the heart in the far-off future?

Love & Rockets is an original collection of thirteen Space Opera adventures which explore the directions romantic relationships may take when set in such unique environments as spaceships, space stations, or planetary colonies. The relationships may be between humans or alien/human couples or even between humans and Als. And no matter how far men, women, and extraterrestrials go in the universe, whether love is found on a distant planet or among the stars, just like in real life, a happy ending is never guaranteed.
