Hello and thank you so much for having me here today! I’m Christine d’Abo and I’m an author and lover of erotic romance. I’m also a huge fan of space operas. I got hooked on Star Wars pretty early on in my life, which started me off on a life-long love of Harrison Ford…err…roguish charming characters.

This particular architype – the charming rogue – is one that lends itself perfectly not only to space operas, but also to romance. They are the take-charge person, the one who will put his life on the line for his loved ones. They use their humor as a shield to keep others from seeing what is beneath the surface. The men and women who fall in love with these rogues must be strong and self-confident in their own right. They have to be their equal in all ways in order for the rogue to let his guard down. Seeing those barriers fall was one of the reasons I started my writing career in the world of erotic futuristics.

No Quarter was my first m/m romance novel. I have to admit that this was written during my Torchwood fangirl days. I won’t say this is fanfiction (though I have written many stories in the Torchwood/Doctor Who universe), though I will admit that John Barrowman is most definitely Faolan. J His ability to capture that roguish charm left a strong impression on me, one that spilled over into my writing of No Quarter. So I had my rogue, which means I needed a foil. Who would be strong enough to get a charming space pirate under control? That’s where I came up with the idea of my bounty hunter – Gar Stitt.

The story practically wrote itself. Two strong willed, intelligent men who happened to be at odds, forced to work together. What could possibly go wrong?

So if you’re reading No Quarter and happen to picture John Barrowman and oh, I don’t know…Gareth David Lloyd as Gar…well that will probably work.

About No Quarter

When bounty hunter Gar Stitt is given a simple locate-and-retrieve mission, he’s convinced it’s a waste of his skills. His success rate is legendary, after all, and Captain Faolan Wolf isn’t hard to find. He’s the most notorious pirate in the galaxy, and when he shows up planetside to take his pleasures, he’s far from subtle.

Faolan never expected a hot but tightly wound hunter to walk into his private party and try to apprehend him single-handedly. And when an unexpected betrayal forces them to work together, Faolan’s even more surprised to find himself drawn to Gar personally—especially since neither of them do personal.

Gar had intended to put Faolan in prison. Instead he finds his solitary existence shaken by his desire for the pirate. And when the bounty hunter becomes the hunted, he must put his faith in Faolan and his pirate crew, or run the risk of ending up dead.

Publisher’s note: This title is an edited second edition, previously published in 2010.
