Alliances - Lost Colony, #1

Tristan Travs never wanted to be an Admiral. He wanted to serve his time as a top-notch pilot and retire early in comfort on his rich family's dime. But all that changed five years ago when the Aveeys-humanity's greatest advancement in AI technology- rebelled and destroyed the planet. He's now left as the highest-ranking officer of Terran Colony, the only survivors. They move from planet to planet, trying to find a new home, on the run from Aveeys, and pirates-those who live on the fringes of civilized society.
Livia Icini never wanted to be a pirate. She wanted a normal life before the Aveeys destroyed everything. Now, she's finally found a way to get that again, by seeking asylum in Terran Colony. Life is far from normal, and Livia has secrets beyond her pirate past. She may be seeking asylum, but she may also be the key to the Colony's survival. If she can get the Admiral to trust her without killing him first.
Pirates and killer robots aren't the only thing out to destroy the last of humanity. There are other things among the stars.
