Never the Twain (The Star Elite – Rebecca King

With just three of the murderous highwaymen still on the loose, the Star Elite redouble their efforts to track them down no matter what the cost. When their hunt takes them to the rurality of Welton Broadstone, things take a sinister turn but in a surprising way. Not only does Greg find himself in a surreal little hamlet that doesn’t even feature on any maps, but he also stumbles across a stunning young woman who is as mysterious as her surroundings.

At first, Greg suspects he has been led into a trap by the highwaymen, but it quickly transpires that the young woman is in terrible danger. While he must keep searching for the highwaymen, his honour demands that he does everything possible to help Selena, whether she wants him to or not.

Can Greg persuade her to trust him when it appears that the entire world has turned its back on her? Can he protect her when he cannot be with her all the time? Can he persuade her that the Star Elite’s safe house is the best place for her, despite knowing that she may not have a house to return to when her enemy has been vanquished?

Selena’s answer to all these questions is a very firm ‘no’, but when matters take an even more sinister turn, she is left with no choice but to trust someone who may bring about her ultimate downfall.
