If they want to find their balance, these two lonely athletes might have to lean on each other.

Tiago Torrn may be a championship fighter and the envy of all of Maltaffia, but his mateless condition leaves him longing for home and family. When the Midsummer Fertility Center arranges for Alexis to be his unconventional surrogate, he is instantly taken with the Terran ballerina. As their adventure brings them closer, Tiago is having a hard time remembering why he can’t let himself fall for her.

From a tender age, Alexis Clare has given her whole life over to ballet. The beautiful art form dictates where she goes, what she eats, and how she spends each hour of her day. When an injury turns into a more serious health issue that keeps her offstage, Alexis feels lost. And when she learns she can’t start the family she’s always dreamed of, her sadness turns to despair.

Until she hears about an option to have her fertility restored in the most romantic place in the known universe.

This couple may not have much in common on the outside, but on the inside, they’re two peas in a pod. At least that’s what Oberon, the AI who runs the Center, thinks. But even Oberon may have trouble designing and implementing a plan romantic enough to overcome Tiago’s trust issues and Alexis’s guilt and bring the two together.
