An Accidental Goddess

What would happen if you woke up and discovered your ship had been damaged and you're in sick bay? Then you figured out that you had traveled 300 years into the future. And when you notice a shrine - you find out the face is yours! Special Forces Captain Gillaine Davre finds herself in just that position when she reawakens on the Admiral Mack Mararian's space station.

Mack's not sure what to make of this space traveler. He's busy trying to keep the peace and order on a space station set on the edge of his world. And he's trying to keep their enemies out - but there seems to be spies everywhere. Mack is not sure if Gillaine is a spy, but he thinks she attractive.

Gillaine is trying to fix her ship so that she can get out of there. Especially since she had been declared a goddess for her act of bravery that happened over 300 years ago. But she is not your average gal - she has natural powers that can help Mack's struggle. But should she announce herself? And completely denounce 300 years of faith and worship? She never wanted to be a goddess. She just wanted to do her job.

In, An Accidental Goddess, Linnea Sinclair does a great job of combing science fiction, action and romance. As she builds her world, we learn about Mack's latest challenge, and Gillian's background. And soon they find themselves up against a common enemy.

It may feel a little slow to start - but the action gets going soon enough, and Mack and Gilliane are a couple to cheer for. A very fun read!
