Stars Between Us — Melisse Aires

Odessa, a young mother with a past, and Veras, a young man with a future, have a few days together before Vera leaves Farport Space Station for life on a distant planet.

Odessa, a lonely single mother and former dance hall girl, contacts her former lover, Veras, the man she never got over, to see how he is doing now. It seems he never got over her, either. He is leaving Farport in a short time for medical school on a distant planet. Traveling so far is a one-way trip; they know they have no future together. They want to enjoy the few days they have.

But why are they attacked by drones?
