A Quiet Universe

Blurb:

> CERHA is a fabricant, and her job is simple: keep Annalise Fletcher safe, a role she performs dutifully and without fail, as she was designed to. Neither she nor her charge expected that this routine assignment could lead to love, but when feelings begin to bloom, neither see fit to stand in their way, and their shared life becomes a tense balance between duty, and the domestic bliss woven into the spaces remaining. For a time, they are as close to happy as they can manage.
>But now, Annalise has vanished to the embattled starship *Upon Silver Tides*, leaving a cryptic warning in her wake, and CERHA finds herself frantically in pursuit, on a mission to save her objective-turned-lover - but the web around them both is far more tangled than either could possibly know, and waiting upon this forsaken vessel is a descent into insanity that will force CERHA to confront the bleak truth at the heart of her function.
