Size Difference Space Cruise
(2026)(The tenth book in the Smutt Books Short Alien Romance series)
A Story by Deiri Di
Beth would much rather stay home.
Instead, she’s trapped on a months-long luxury singles cruise exploring her own solar system… courtesy of her extroverted best friends. By he time they finish hauling her through the viewing lounges, alien gardens, on board gym, exotic dining facilities, and zero-gravity dance floors, she’s desperate for some alone time.
Except, she doesn’t want to be alone, she wants to learn about the ship.
Curious and creative, she pings it in an attempt to find out more about what she can do with the different artistic facilities on board. The onboard computer responds in a way that is more than friendly, almost… flirtatious?
Because it isn’t a computer.
He’s a person.
And she caught his eye the moment she stepped on board.
The entity that arranged a singles cruise through the void isn’t doing it because he needs the income, he set this whole thing up so he could find someone that he could click with, and he thinks Beth is it.
He is vast, powerful, and in control of everything.
And he is interested in Beth.
A fast-paced, high-heat sci-fi romance about intimacy without boundaries, sentient steel and starlight, unusual anatomy, and the moment you realize that your home has chosen you back.
Genre: Science Fiction
