Description
This heist turned rom-com from New York Times bestselling author Beth Revis is perfect for fans of sexy, romantic science fiction and readers of Martha Wells and Becky Chambers
Ada had no intention whatsoever to continue working for the rebel group that hired her to retrieve the government’s plans for a nanobot climate cleaner if they weren’t willing to pay her for it, but then they offer a different perk: an undercover mission to a charity gala where Rian will be in attendance. Rian, meanwhile, has volunteered his services for the gala believing that the rare items up for auction will attract Ada’s eye. Hoping to catch her in the act and pin her with a punishable crime, Rian has no idea Ada’s really after.
In a high-stakes game of theft and deception, Ada plays to win...and Rian will do anything to stop her.
How to Steal a Galaxy continues the sexy, rip-roaring good time that Beth Revis began in Full Speed to a Crash Landing, with the return of Ada, Rian, and all the tension, twists, and turns that made the first novella so much fun. "Revis makes the anticipation delicious." —Publishers Weekly

I wish more sci-fi romance were like this. So much of that subgenre seems to be just straight-up alien porn for the sake of alien porn. And while I have no problem with that kind of book, it’s not really what I’m looking for. In general, for genre romance I want a fully formed genre story, actual plot and worldbuilding included, with a healthy romantic subplot and possibly a dash of smut, rather than mostly sex plus some feelings and maybe a side of plot. It feels like in sci-fi romance there’s a ton of the latter and not a lot of the former. (If you've got recommendations that fit the bill, send them my way!)
The Chaotic Orbits series, so far, is exactly what I’m looking for. Solid plot with plenty of twists, interesting worldbuilding, multifaceted characters, and strong romantic subplot. About the only thing I don’t like about it is the first-person narration, not because I don’t like first person narration but because I prefer to hear both people’s sides in a romance. But that’s not a dealbreaker for me. Still 5 stars and eagerly awaiting the conclusion.

How to Steal a Galaxy by Beth Revis is a wild romp of thievery (objects, intelligence, and hearts) and rebels. Ada is convinced to help the rebels she worked for previously to retrieve some intelligence on nanobots being used by the government to "help". Ada is thrilled to run into Rian at the gala where the government plans to inform the public of the use of these nanobots.
Beth Revis has written a sweet yet exciting space heist with characters who are complex yet relatable.
Revis is a must-buy for me!
