'Honeymoon in Space' Summary
Lilla Zaidie Rennick, a young woman traveling to England, faces a forced marriage to the Marquis of Byfleet. However, her journey takes an unexpected turn when Lord Redgrave, a man she once loved, arrives in an advanced spaceship called the Astronef. Redgrave, a pioneering inventor, proposes a daring expedition to the moon. Lilla, torn between her duty and her heart, finds herself drawn to Redgrave's adventurous spirit. Their passionate encounters ignite a conflict within Lilla, who must choose between the comfort of a traditional marriage and the thrilling prospect of space travel with Redgrave. The story unfolds against the backdrop of a futuristic society where technology and science are rapidly advancing, but social norms remain rigid.

As she navigates the complexities of her feelings for Redgrave and the pressures of her impending marriage, Lilla ultimately chooses to follow her heart and embrace the unknown.Book Details
