Why This Must Be Read: This is one of the most realistic series I've read. Everything doesn't fall neatly into place and it takes until Fortification and Seige Warfare for things to start to work. A nice mix of angst, plot, emotion sex.


From Beneath a Waning Moon:

The sun has been down for about fifteen minutes and the breeze off the ocean is turning cool. Rodney's hands rest on the balcony railing, thumbs idly rubbing circles on the warm metal as he watches the first of the planet's three moons creep up above the horizon. He's already been out here for almost an hour, and he's at the point of giving up hope now, convinced that this will be the night it all stops, the night he wakes up from the month-long dream.

Before he can steel himself to turn around and go back inside, though, he hears quiet footsteps behind him, and then there's a solid body pressing up against his back, and strong hands firm on his hips.

"Miss me?"
