About this ebook

When an earthquake shakes up a nearby world, can two star-crossed rescuers save an entire community… and each other?

Experienced rescuer Subcaptain Taz Correa hides her wounded heart. A telekinetic tech-whiz recently transferred to the worst Galactic Search and Rescue unit in the galaxy, she’d hoped after her string of epically bad breakups she’d have a fresh start. But when she can’t fight her feelings for her new teammate, she’s terrified her secret affection will show and cost both their careers.

Subcaptain Rylando Dalroinn’s telepathic connection to animals used to be everything. But he has no idea how to admit his growing attraction to Taz, especially as it’s completely against the rules. And when they’re sent as a team of two to help a devastated town, he knows he can’t afford to let his heart’s desire distract him from their dangerous mission.

As Taz works with Rylando and his unusual squad of trained animal helpers to free a desperate group of citizens, she puts her life on the line to protect her partner’s beloved creatures. But when Rylando realizes the people he’s rescuing are more than just innocent victims, he’ll have to throw out the rulebook to save them both.

Can love—and a clever crew of animals—guide the couple out of the rubble and into a future together?

Galactic Search and Rescue is a pulse-pounding story in the Central Galactic Concordance space opera series. If you like lovers in denial, edge-of-your-seat twists and turns, and intriguing psychic powers, then you’ll adore Carol Van Natta’s thrilling tale.

Taz has feeling for Rylando, but can’t act on them (and has a terrible relationship track record). Rylando appreciates Taz for more than her tech skills. But galaxy politics and search and rescue missions keep them for acting on their feelings, until a seismic shift changes everything. I loved Taz and Rylando, but Rylando’s animal team takes the prize! Each had their own personalities and quirks and were so darn cute! A great fun read.

I really enjoyed this story and revisiting the CGC. In this story 2 search and rescue team members are sent out to help rescue people but things do not go as planned and trouble occurs. They both need to stay alive and use their skills and luck to get out of the sticky situation they end up in. Made me laugh and sigh and had my fingers crossed. Really enjoyed the story and all the characters.

I read this book when it was part of Pets in Space 5. I was excited to return for another pet filled story in this universe. I really enjoyed this story. I liked the idea of a galactic search and rescue team. There are a few of the overarching themes with how the CPS handles things badly that show up in this story that people who read the series recognize, but it can easily be read as a standalone. I liked the characters and seeing how they handled the situations. They were both likable and I liked how they interacted with the pets, other characters and each other. I just wished it could've been a bit longer so we could see what happens next. The romance mostly is a side plot line as the focus stays on the rescue plot line, but even with the romance staying on the side it is clear how much these two care about one another. I loved the multitude of pets in this one. And there's even a pouch rat! I used to have pet rats and I love rats, so it was extra fun to see a rat play a role in this story. Besides that there are two doggos, two cats as well as a owl and a weasel. It was a fun mix of animals, although it took some time remembering all their names and who they were. I liked how they played an important role in the story as well. All in all this was a great science fiction story with plenty of pets as well as a romantic side plot line.
