| Alexa is desperate to escape from a research facility she has been in for the last few years. The TRF or Talent Research Facility has been snatching known psychics from her homeland for years, and forcing them into experiments and torture. When her chance to escape comes up, she takes it. She stows away on a freighter, not knowing where it is going, and not really caring. When her ship crashes on a planet, she finds out she's not the only stowaway on this craft. Rogan is a wanted criminal, and has been on the run for years. After getting to know him, she can't believe that he is capable of all they say he has done. She couldn't fall for a man like that, could she?
Stay in the Light is a story about a woman who finds her love in a very unexpected place. This is told in first person form, which can be a little distracting at times. While we get to know all about Alexa and her thoughts, we only see Rogan and the other people through her eyes and thoughts. That aside, this was an interesting story, and the author did an excellent job of telling the story in this form. Alexa comes across as a strong woman, who has had to learn to survive the hard way. Her insecurities are the same as all women, and that's part of what made her such an interesting character. Rogan is slightly mysterious; you are never quite sure how he feels. I really enjoyed reading this story, and I recommend it to people who like this genre.
