A product of an illegal pairing, Eridani is the only woman without a lifemate aboard the colonization ship, the Heritage, and she is determined her less than perfect DNA will not get in the way of finding love. As the ship nears it’s final destination of Haven 6 after five hundred years of travel, images of the surface show evidence of intelligent life on a planet that’s supposed to be uninhabited. Commander Grier assigns Eri to the exploratory team to spy on the alien society and return with information on how to defeat them.
When Eri’s team lands, tribes of humans attack and Eri is saved by Striver, the descendant of a colonist and a pirate from Old Earth’s colonization efforts in other parts of the galaxy. Striver helps Eri rescue her team and they are drawn to each other despite their different allegiances. While Striver battles with trusting Eri, Eri must decide whether to warn him and his people about the commander’s intentions, or follow orders and complete her mission.

Reviewer’s Thoughts:
Although book four in the New Dawn series, never having read the previous three books, I never once felt lost or confused. Dionne’s way with words draws you in to Haven 6. You’re not only a reader, you’re right there with Eri and Striver, running in the dense forests, heading straight in to Lawless territory to save Eri’s shipmates. I loved that you can see the progression in Eri. You watch her go from someone who feels small and unworthy to someone who risks her own life walking in to the face of danger for something she believes is the right thing to do. Eri is the heroine we’ve all been waiting for and Striver is the perfect hero for her. This book is about more than romance, it’s about personal growth, love and learning to face danger and come out laughing on the other side. Whether you enjoy reading sci-fi or not, this book is a must read for everyone. I know that I, for one, will be adding the rest of the series to my to be read list and I hope you do too. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
