Description:
Limited by status…

Ava is a housekeeper aboard Star Spirit, a luxury cruise ship travelling between the Milky Way and the Belvarian System. Coming from a middle-class family on Earth, she is considered by passengers as nothing more than an object to be tossed away when they’re done with her.

Shunned because of his lineage…

Banned from several planets across the universe, Nate struggles to run his interstellar shipping business. But the DNA of an exterminated race runs through his blood, giving him a diluted form of their powers, and leaving him labeled as a terrorist.

Both searching for the one…

Through her 1Night Stand dating service, Madame Evangeline matches these two together for a celestial escape on the pleasure planet, Elatia.

Will Ava and Nate find what they’re looking for, or will their date be just another night on another planet?

REVIEW:

I love the 1 Night Stand Series from Decadent publishing. They are quick little reads, that always leave you satisfied, but wanting more. It was the same with Another Night, Another Planet by Jessica E. Subject.

This hot little Sci-Fi Erotic Romance , was a quick fun read.

Ava is from a future where your status is determined by your wealth, or lack of it. The society is based on social standing, and if your poor choices are extremely limited.

Ava being born poor, works as a housekeeper on a star ship? It's the only way she is able to get off planet, and see the galaxy. It's also how she helps support her parents financially. She is content in her role, but longs for more in her life.

She saves up and arranges for a date with the 1 Night Stand Agency. Madame Eve, as usual knows just what Ava needs.

Nate has wealth, and excitement in his life, but he's been banned from Earth due to his heritage. With no family or real connections, he longs to find someone to love, and a relationship that will last.

He knows hurt, and pain intimately, and wishes for something new to replace his sad memories.

I really enjoyed this story. Ava is strong, resourceful, and very like able. She is easy to identify with, and very brave. She wanted something more out of life, and did what was necessary to achieve it.

Nate's history was sad, and you could really empathize with him as a character.  I really felt sadness in my heart for him, and was rooting for him to find his happiness.

The erotic scenes were sexy, hot, and well written.

I have yet to read a Jessica E. Subject book that I didn't fall in love with, and this story was no exception. If you love Sci- Fi Romance with moving characters, exciting plots, and steamy sex. Do yourself a favor, and pick up Another Night, Another Planet.

5 STARS / 5

EXCERPT:

Ava glanced at the empty seat beside her. Late, as usual.

Michelle raced toward her then slammed onto the cushion. “Jeez, why can’t we have buckled seats in the rooms like other mother travelers?”

She rolled her eyes, sighing. “Who was the guy this time?”

“Oh, not one, but two. Remember the twins from Room 317 I told you about?”

Gasping, she clasped her hands over her mouth. The twins were hot, but two at the same time? She definitely had different morals than her friend. “You’re unbelievable.”

“No, they are. I’m meeting with them again on Elatia. Want to join us? I’m willing to share.”

“No, thank you.” She blushed, imagining having sex with someone her best friend had done the deed with, and being in the same room while Michelle got busy with another guy. She would never do such a thing. Sex happened behind closed doors.

“C’mon. We’re going to be on the pleasure planet. Time to have our sexual fantasies come true.” Michelle squeezed her thigh. “You haven’t had any fun on this voyage at all. Did you meet someone back home before we left and not tell me?”

She shook her head. How she wished. “I’m saving myself.”

Michelle snorted. “For what?”

“Never mind.” She sighed. “You wouldn’t understand.”

“Whatever.” Michelle frowned, turning away, leaving her to wallow in her own guilt.

“By the way,” her friend continued. “You’re supposed to go to the communications center after you’ve escorted your passengers off. You have a message from someone named Madame Evangeline.”

Ava groaned, her stomach twisting in knots. “I didn’t expect to hear from her so soon,” she whispered, fingering the hem of her shirt. Now she’d have the return trip to increase her anxiousness for the date.

Michelle twisted back toward her. “What? Who is Madame Evangeline, anyway?”

Ava glanced around. The rest of the staff seemed to be engrossed in their own conversations—reciting their plans during the layover on Elatia—but she still didn’t want anyone to hear. She leaned closer to her friend. “I applied to a dating service before we left. Madame Eve is the woman who runs it. I’m saving myself for my date.”

Michelle’s eyes widened. “So you’re meeting your special someone on Elatia? Could it be a passenger from the Star Spirit?”

“No.” She dreaded the thought. Guests from the mother traveler would still see her as a second-class being, and she didn’t know of any employee on board looking for a serious relationship. She jumped at the crunch of the ship docking, unprepared to meet her date already. “It won’t happen until we return to Earth. It can’t.”

“Well, do you mind if I come with you to find out? I have to wait for the twins to complete their quarantine period, anyway.”

“Sure.” She could use the support. Clasping her shoulder straps, she took a deep breath, willing her body to stop shaking.

***

“What does it say?” Michelle leaned over her shoulder, trying to read the message on her tablet.

No one had questioned her in the communications center. The technician had simply glanced at her identification then transferred the message to her device. Unable to wait until she arrived in her room, Ava opened the email from 1Night Stand and began to read the letter while in the elevator.

Dearest Ava…

The elevator slowed. She braced for the change in direction.

…I trust the first leg of your journey went well. While you traveled through space, I received an application from a man whom I believe would be an ideal match for you. Since you already have the required inoculations and do not need to go through the quarantine period before entering Elatia, I have arranged for someone to meet you. His name is Jacobus. While he is not your date, he will prepare you then escort you to the man you will spend the evening with.

Affectueusement,

Madame Eve

So soon? The woman had found her a match already? A rush of giddiness filled her before nerves pushed it aside. She wasn’t an impossible match. Then bile burned the back of her throat. What had Madame Eve meant by prepare? She spun to face her friend. “I can’t do this. I thought I could but I don’t even know this guy.”

She paced, the walls seeming to close in on her. “I wanted to find someone to spend the rest of my life with. On Earth. But this is just going to be another one-night stand. I fucked up. What am I supposed to do?”

Her friend shrugged, an amused grin on her face. “You can spend the next couple of days hiding in your room, wondering who you were set up with, and whether things might have worked out, or you can get your ass moving, pack a bag to meet Jacobus and then your date. If in your position, I’d be already gone.”

The difference between her and Michelle…she couldn’t spend the night with someone without feeling some sort of connection. Somehow, her friend could walk away the next morning, ready to find another guy. Maybe she’d feel different if she had guys falling at her feet due to her big bust on her curvy frame. In comparison to her friend, Ava looked plain, resembling a girl in the early stages of puberty. No one wanted to spend a lifetime with her. Every guy she’d ever slept with proved so.

The elevator opened. She stepped out, heading down the hall toward their room, still trying to decide how to spend her layover. Contacting Madame Eve had been a mistake. One-night stands didn’t agree with her heart. She pressed her thumb to the scanner, waiting for the door to open. So much money spent…

She sauntered inside, but stopped when Michelle darted in front of her.

“Quit doubting yourself.” Her friend grabbed her arms, staring her down. “You’re beautiful and deserve to be happy. If you don’t hurry up, I’ll knock you out then find a luggage cart to carry you down to Jacobus myself.”

With a deep breath, she nodded. She could do this. Might as well get my money’s worth. “Okay, I’ll do it.”

Michelle reached in her closet then tossed her a duffle bag. “Good. I’ll help you pack.”
