LET THE HUNT BEGIN!
SCARDUST
by Suzanne van Rooyen
Published: February 8, 2016
Publisher: Entangled
Genre: NA science fiction
Blurb:
Dead Rock, Texas, 2037
Raleigh Williams made a promise to his brother
before he died, that he’d scatter his ashes on Mars. Desperate to leave a life
of bad memories behind and start over in the Martian colony, Raleigh fully
intends to keep that promise. But his plans are thwarted when a meteor
near-misses him in the desert, and Raleigh finds in its crater not debris or
even a spacecraft, but a man covered in swirling scars and with no memory of
who he is. At least he looks like a man—a man Raleigh can’t seem to keep his
eyes off of—but whenever they touch it ignites a memory swap between them.
Raleigh agrees to help Meteor Man piece together
his life through their cosmic connection. But the memory share goes both ways,
and Raleigh becomes inexplicably entangled with a guy who is everything he
needs—everything good that Raleigh is not—but might not even be human. As their
minds and worlds collide, reality unravels and Raleigh must face a painful
truth, one that could shatter his dreams of finding love, reaching Mars, and
fulfilling his brother’s last wish.

EXCLUSIVE LOOK!! *
What's in Raleigh's
backpack?
Raleigh has a big dream: to
go to Mars. His dream is also a promise. Before his brother died, he made
Raleigh promise he'd become an astronaut and spread his ashes on Mars. Raleigh
intends to keep his promise, in fact he hasn't been thinking about anything
except Mars for years. Until Crow showed up – now Raleigh's finding himself
getting a little distracted by the good-looking guy. Here's what their most
recent Facebook chat looked like:
While Crow might be a
delightful distraction, there's no way Raleigh isn't already planning his trip
to Mars. Here's what Raleigh will take with him if he ever manages to become an
astronaut.
The backpack:
Standard issue, astronaut
backpack.
His dog-eared copy of Dune
by Frank Herbert:
This a book Raleigh has read
countless times and could never go long without. His life's motto is 'What
Would Muad'Dib do?'
His smartphone, for music:
There's no way Raleigh could
leave earth without having a way of listening to his brother's sick guitaring
and angry vocals.
Photos of his family and
Bear:
Raleigh might not want to
admit it, but he's the sentimental type and wouldn't survive being away from
his family or four-legged best friend without being able to look at them.
Condoms, just in case:
All Crow's fault for
mentioning sex in zero-g, but there's no harm in being prepared.
