Embracing Refuge (A Place of Refuge #3)

Is it too late for a cynical super soldier to right the wrongs in her past?

Enhanced soldier Faigin Balfour defected from a fascist military to the revolution. Once the deadliest of warriors, now she fights to settle into a peaceful life on the utopian planet Refuge. Her two closest friends, Talia and Miki, are there to help, and have invited Faigin to join their loving bond for a peace they can all share. Faigin's not a romantic, but she still craves the intimacy they offer. That's something she's willing to work on. For her, though, love is not enough. She needs to contribute something of herself to the planet that saved all their lives, to pay back some good for the harm she caused. She needs a mission.

Refuge has no need for killers, so how can she find value, now, in the technological augmentations that changed her body and shaped her life? She'll need to confront her past as child soldier and lethal guerilla, and ponder what actions she can take in the present to uphold life instead of death.

Can a killer become worthy of utopia?
