Faced with a future of indebted labor, human Gearheart Calhoon boards the abandoned space-freighter Resolute Roar, hoping his salvage finds will buy his freedom. But he is not alone. Beyond the scrap and valuables, a threat prowls the vessel's metal halls, hunting for its next meal, while an alien warrior fights for his survival against impossible odds.
Their fates are soon entwined, and Calhoon and his unexpected warrior protector forge an alliance to navigate the perilous ship. As they dodge the lurking horrors in the Resolute Roar's dark corridors, they discover something far more valuable than scrap: a deep, mutual attraction. Embracing their alluring bond transforms their fear into a fierce love that might be the key to their salvation.
Together, they must unravel the freighter's mysteries, confront the lurking dangers, and find out if their newfound love can conquer all before the ship claims them both.
Gruesome Endings, New Beginnings is the first book in the Trilogy that follows Calhoon and Ja-guen's adventures in the universe of Ethnis.
