BLURB:
For three years, Filo has reveled in silence and solitude as the sole occupant of a space station, where he maintains the communication satellite.
Everything changes with the appearance of Luz Espina’s lifepod. Filo shares many interests with the flirtatious Luz, though Filo’s isolation has strained his communication skills. Still, Luz pushes all his buttons’ and reminds him of the last man he was attracted to, an attraction that ended in disaster because the man was straight. When Luz learns Filo has never celebrated a holiday, he vows to cobble together a Claus Day celebration for them to share. But is it merely a friendly gesture or something more?
REVIEW:
Even though Filo has been alone for the past three years he hasn’t been lonely. In fact, he quite enjoys his alone time! Before he found himself, alone Filo lived with three other workmates on the communication satellite he maintains. When two of his workmates fell in love they had to leave the satellite because there is to be no fraternizing between co-workers. The remaining co-worker got horny, received a blow job from Filo, felt shame the next day and requested to be reassigned!
Several months ago, a lifepod appeared with Luz Espina inside. Filo requested that Luz be allowed to stay on the satellite until the next delivery is made. Delivery is in the next few days and Luz has just discovered that Filo has never celebrated Claus day! Unbeknownst to Filo Luz is falling in love with him, he has also decided to put together a Claus day Filo won’t soon forget.
Whilst Luz is preparing for Filo’s first Claus day, Filo goes about his business trying not to think about his attraction to Luz. As far as Filo is concerned Luz is straight so he’ll never give them a chance, as such he has decided to give him a wide birth. I urge you to join Filo and Luz on a journey of discovery and falling in love.

Is it sci-fi? I do love a good sci-fi romance…
The sci-fi is a nice twist, and it sounds darling!

I am not very much into sci-fi but this sounds interesting. Thank you for the review…
Glad, you liked it. I have to admit, even though I liked the writing, I couldn’t really get into the story.
