     It’s funny how no one ever said that. As the resident geologist for the International Space Station, I expected a few things during my stay in space - maybe run some particle tests, collect some space dust, run some experiments and enjoy the view. What I didn’t expect was to be abducted by a huge, terrifying alien, get carted across the universe and then have to be on the run with said terrifying alien because he apparently doesn’t know how to stay out of trouble. And the very last thing I expected was to actually find the infuriatingly cocky alien sexy and charming. So now I have to figure out a way to survive space, the intergalactic mafia and all the random aliens who want to have me as a pet or wear me as a hat, and I have to do it all without falling for the guy who abducted me in the first place. Wish me luck? **Note: Alien Space Outlaws is a full length novel and the sequel to the Alien Space Pirates serial! It iss the story of Jordan's abduction, but it can be enjoyed on its own as well! This book is a sci fi romance full of sexy aliens, sensual (and sometimes awkward) situations, humor and all the steaminess that readers love! Enjoy!**
