UNWANTED

As a modest space station bartender, Darby believed she was unimportant, until she learned that she possessed the one thing the universe was fighting to obtain. 

Darby Trussler, a modest bartender on a remote space station, never imagined she would be in the middle of an epic, interstellar battle of good versus evil. Caught between the Galactic and the Defiance factions, she unknowingly possesses the key to a life-altering discovery that can assure peace - or guarantee doom - for the universe. Placing her trust in the elite space fighter pilot Aston McGoven, the two must unlock her past to solve the mystery she holds, navigate their own budding relationship, and discover alliances they can trust to help them protect the galaxy.

UNWANTED is more than a space opera, it features a strong romantic undercurrent with a dash of fantasy and intrigue. The arcs of the protagonists intersect as Darby builds her courage from feelings of insignificance, while her "elite" space fighter pilot and love interest Aston, becomes disenchanted with his career and yearns for a simpler life. It is an accessible Science Fiction story that appeals to those who don't traditionally read sci-fi. Anyone who enjoys space operas will love this piece, but because of its strong romantic undercurrent and dash of intrigue, it has the ability to transcend audiences.
