This book is about Tempest Becker

and Esther Crowley.

They are cousins. All their lives they've been separated by cities, countries, and continents. Now, they are separated by light years of stars and space.

Tempest is stuck on a vessel to Janus, forced into keeping the peace with an arranged marriage. 

Unaware of Tempest's whereabouts, Esther begins a journey from Hicksmon, Pennsylvania to Japan to find the only family she knows she can trust: her cousin.  

Will the girls ever be reunited or will the space between them grow? Will Tempest conform to what is expected, or be tempted away from her arranged marriage by a handsome spacecraft technician? Will Esther make it to Japan, or will outside forces stop her dead in her tracks?

Let their journeys begin...
