When her boss orders her into space with her worst coworker, Hannah Cuthbertson wishes she could say no.
The young TV producer's job is on the line when she floats aboard a fledgling salvage ship to promote a new reality show. Even worse, she has to work one-on-one with the "Face of Space" himself—Gary Nelson, the perfectly groomed and professionally sculpted show host she abhors.
Gary is everything Hannah isn't—he's charming and cool and genuinely enthusiastic about space exploration, including their boss's latest ill-conceived show about salvaging valuable space junk. And Gary seems set on disrupting Hannah's plan to keep her head down, do her work, and then get her feet back on the ground so she can get off the reality show circuit once and for all.
But one dangerous and hair-raising coincidence after another proves this is no ordinary assignment. As frenemy space crews compete for the same treacherous payday, Hannah and Gary must put their differences aside to get to the bottom of an insidious conspiracy before they become the victims of a convenient accident far above the Earth's surface.
With their lives on the line and an undeniable heat escalating between them, Gary and Hannah are confronted with the unscripted reality that their professional friction belies a very real gravitational pull.
