Author Description

Lisa Huntress is a legendary bounty hunter in the distant future, whose armored visage and legendary gunhand strike terror into the hearts of the pirates and hostile aliens she fights. Yet behind the armor is an incredibly beautiful body, but one she has been deluded into believing to be ugly, for not conforming to narrow standards of beauty defined by others. Born on the planet of Gaia, and raised in a civilization kept at a hunter-gatherer level by conscious choice, she finds herself torn from happiness and thrust into nightmare, when pirates destroy her Tribe and victimize her, until her rescue by the crude yet caring bounty hunter, Brock Masterson. Brock trains her to avenge her slaughtered kinfolk, but nothing he does can assuage the heartache of a girl torn from her homeworld, thrust from verdant rain forest into a lifestyle in high tech cities, and the infinite depths of lonely, cold space. With her old life gone and vengeance a bitter and unsatisfactory remedy, Lisa has no choice but to grow on her own, or else she will never know true love or happiness.
