Mine to Hold is the fourth book in the Dirty Sexy Space series by author Shona Husk. This is my first time reading the series and I was not lost starting with this one.
This is a story about Silke, Vance and Captain Leo. Leo is transporting human colonists to a new destination. He has decided to join them. He is tired of always moving around. He wants a family and a home.
I liked the people in this book, not just the main characters. There is a sense of real companionship and connection with them all.
Vance, he has been a prisoner for a crime he is not sorry for. He is now helping the local veterinarian with the animals on the ship.
He has many secrets. He is not willing to share them at first.
Silke, she is the Vet. She is in charge of all the animals on the voyage. She is also facing her own dilemmas. Like her definition of love. She thought it was one way now she is discovering she wants more.
She is a strong character. I liked her a lot she has real vulnerability and lots of strength that kept me turning the pages.
Overall this is a great read. I cannot wait for more from this series in the future.
