Traveling in space on her way to deliver prisoners to Siberius X, Lieutenant Lai is plagued by recurring explicit dreams of prisoner Jenssen Mal.  Aroused by curiosity, Lai must take a closer look at the body of the man that has invaded her dreams.  But when a computer glitch distracts Lei and awakens Mel from his cryo sleep, she must find the prisoner or face a life sentence for aiding in his escape.  Although Lai finds Mel extremely sexy and attractive, she must choose between her duties to the Coalition or submit to a sexy rebel whose only wish is to capture her heart. 

CONTAINMENT is a deliciously naughty sci-fi adventure that pleasantly surprised this reviewer.  This reviewer found that the author did a good job with the story’s ambiance and had me clearly visualizing a space setting making for a very convincing plot.  The characters were not over the top and stable enough to make their plight believable.  This reader fully did not expect the actions of Lai’s crewmate, so was actually surprised to find myself questioning Jenssen’s intentions and weather or not he was being sincere towards Lei. 

Overall a good story, although this reader must say she was a scratching her head and furrowing her brow with our heroine’s motives for opening Jenssen’s containment unit just to ogle his privates.  Perhaps this reviewer would have embraced that scene better had it been penned differently, but understand it was intended as Lai’s erotic fantasy.  Aside from that, CONTAINMENT is definitely a quick hot sexy read which will leave the reader quite satisfied.
