Sparks fly when Ada and Rian just-so-happen to find themselves at the same charity gala—but there’s something rotten behind the sparkling gowns and dazzling wealth on display
This heist turned rom-com from New York Times bestselling author Beth Revis is perfect for fans of sexy, romantic science fiction and readers of Martha Wells and Becky Chambers
Ada had no intention whatsoever to continue working for the rebel group that hired her to retrieve the government’s plans for a nanobot climate cleaner if they weren’t willing to pay her for it, but then they offer a different perk: an undercover mission to a charity gala where Rian will be in attendance. Rian, meanwhile, has volunteered his services for the gala believing that the rare items up for auction will attract Ada’s eye. Hoping to catch her in the act and pin her with a punishable crime, Rian has no idea that Ada’s real mission is to convince him to join the rebels. And the rebels have no idea that Ada’s decided that kidnapping Rian is the most efficient means to an end.
How to Steal the Galaxy continues the sexy, rip-roaring good time that Beth Revis began in Full Speed to a Crash Landing, with the return of Ada, Rian, and all the tension, twists, and turns that made the first novella so much fun.

How to Steal a Galaxy is the second installment in author Beth Revis's Chaotic Orbits trilogy. Key Characters: Ada Lamar, and Rian White. This is dystopian series and is based in a universe where humans have destroyed Earth's environment. The story picks up not long after the ending of Full Speed to a Crash Landing. Ada had no intention whatsoever to continue working for the rebel group that hired her to retrieve the government’s plans for a nanobot climate cleaner if they weren’t willing to pay her for it, but then they offer a different an undercover mission to a charity gala where Rian will be in attendance.
Rian, meanwhile, has volunteered his services for the gala believing that the rare items up for auction will attract Ada’s eye. Hoping to catch her in the act and pin her with a punishable crime, Rian has no idea that Ada’s real mission is to convince him to join the rebels. And the rebels have no idea that Ada’s decided that kidnapping Rian is the most efficient means to an end. Ada will do whatever it takes to save Sol-Earth which has been abandoned and left to die thanks to greed, and people leaving for greener pastures.
Rian and Ada again have a curiously twisted chemistry, but lies, subterfuge, distrust, and opposing political views are some hefty obstacles for the pair to face. This series is a Space Opera with humorous dialogue. Ada isn't the most reliable narrator. She's always hiding something before we figure out what she's up to. I would love to see Rian get some narrative time to see what he is thinking besides the last pages of the books. I would love to see these books be a bit longer, but that's apparently the idea behind releasing 3 novella type novels.
