Blurb: To love another is worth the risk of burning out one’s mind.
Captain Nick Steele is young to be in command of a starship, and his Astrogator, Cai, is fresh from the Guild Halls himself, which is not how things are supposed to be done. It’s bad enough that they’re both wet behind the ears, but Nick quickly discovers that he’s irresistibly drawn to Cai like a moth to a flame, with the same relative risks the moth faces.
Cai proves the stronger man when he tells Nick in no uncertain terms that he can’t risk burning out Nick’s mind for the sake of some physical pleasure. As their ship spirals into the dark heart of Tarasch, will Nick ever overcome Cai’s objections to their mutual attraction?

Reviewer: Shorty
Review: Nick and Cai want each other. Cai knows it’s wrong and he is afraid he might accidentally destroy Nick’s mind with his telepathy if things went too far. He decides not to act on his feelings for the sexy Captain.
The Laughing Owl is on their first mission to finish mapping out Tarasch. Beautiful views of space as well as an attack by an unexpected alien ship made for a good read. The dreams shared by Cai and Nick were hot. The actual sex was passionate.
I could actually feel how Cai and Nick felt for one another throughout the entire story. It made me sad that Cai felt they couldn’t be together and that the guild frowns on astrogators being with anyone. Good read.
