About this audiobook
Brady Garrett needs to go home. He's a conscripted recruit on Defender Three, one of a network of stations designed to protect the Earth from alien attack. He's also angry, homesick, and afraid. If he doesn't get home he'll lose his family, but there's no way back except in a body bag.
Cameron Rushton needs a heartbeat. Four years ago Cam was taken by the Faceless—the alien race that almost destroyed Earth. Now he's back, and when the doctors make a mess of getting him out of stasis, Brady becomes his temporary human pacemaker. Except they're sharing more than a heartbeat: they're sharing thoughts, memories, and some very vivid dreams.
Not that Brady's got time to worry about his growing attraction to another guy, especially the one guy in the universe who can read his mind. It doesn't mean anything. It's just biochemistry and electrical impulses. It doesn't change the truth: Brady's alone in the universe.
Now the Faceless are coming and there's nothing anyone can do. You can't stop your nightmares. Cam says everyone will live, but Cam's probably a traitor and a liar like the military thinks. But that's okay. Guys like Brady don't expect happy endings.
Contains mature themes.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Wow I couldn't put this book down. Written entirely from one pov, this is a really fantastic character-centered sci-fi. I enjoyed exploring this universe, and look forward to jumping into the next book. I appreciate that the descriptions of trauma were inversely correlated with its severity; the truly heinous moments were written more abstractly instead of in detail.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It’s weird. I like the story but I do t like the main characters. I can’t connect with someone that whines and hides about issues instead of dealing with them or choosing to do and be better. I couldn’t stand the main character, but the story was interesting, so I kept listening.
