Heartspeed - Daniel Stutzman J

Leigh Shires has had enough. With yet another cheating boyfriend, and her home life in shambles, she's desperate for an escape. When a mysterious off-world program offers a chance to leave it all behind, she leaps at it-only to find herself rocketed into a perilous new reality aboard the mysterious space station Sumerian.

Nothing on Sumerian is as it seems. Leigh learns her predecessor had disappeared without a trace. A terrifying illness strikes her loyal dog. And in the shadows looms an alien artifact-a weapon or something else? As Leigh navigates tangled relationships, she uncovers chilling truths about the station's colonization program and the alien device that may hold the key to her survival-or the destruction of everything she holds dear.

Heartspeed is a high-octane science fiction thriller brimming with danger, unraveling secrets, and a rich, intriguing romance. With twists that will leave you breathless and a heroine who refuses to quit, this is a story for anyone who would never back down to save the ones they love. Join Leigh as she fights for answers, her future, and a hope against impossible odds.
