Blog Tour; To See The Sun


I enjoyed this book so much! 


Survival is hard enough in the outer colonies—what chance does love have?
Life can be harsh and lonely in the outer colonies, but miner-turned-farmer Abraham Bauer is living his dream, cultivating crops that will one day turn the unforgiving world of Alkirak into paradise. He wants more, though. A companion—someone quiet like him. Someone to share his days, his bed, and his heart.

Gael Sonnen has never seen the sky, let alone the sun. He’s spent his whole life locked in the undercity beneath Zhemosen, running from one desperate situation to another. For a chance to get out, he’ll do just about anything—even travel to the far end of the galaxy as a mail-order husband. But no plan of Gael’s has ever gone smoothly, and his new start on Alkirak is no exception. Things go wrong from the moment he steps off the shuttle.

Although Gael arrives with unexpected complications, Abraham is prepared to make their relationship work—until Gael’s past catches up with them, threatening Abraham’s livelihood, the freedom Gael gave everything for, and the love neither man ever hoped to find.
 

Review

I enjoyed this book a lot. I don't normally do sci-fi type books, but I fell in love with the blurb and decided to give it a chance. 

Bram and Gael couldn't be more different. Gael wants out of his undercity life. The life that hurt him over and over again. Bram is a miner turned farmer on one of the outer planets. He's lonely and wants a family so badly. 

When Bram and Gael agree to a contract, neither knows what to expect. The attraction they feel is instant, but they both get more than they bargained for when they finally meet face to face. 

There's a little bit of danger surrounding Gael's past and my heart went out to him because all he wanted was a new start. 

I read this book in a few hours and I really enjoyed every second of it. Bram and Gael are two well written characters. The world that Kelly Jensen created is done well and it felt real at times. I kind of never wanted Bram and Gael's story to end because it felt like they were just getting started.
