    Summary

    After escaping Earth during the initial Reaper attack, Meredith Greenhowe finds herself aboard a failing shuttle with an unconscious Turian - Sius Aetrius. It quickly becomes evident that they have something in their possession which would help with the construction of the Crucible. Hijinks ensue.
    (I don't really know what I'm doing, I'm here for the slow-burn).

    ___

    NB re. the rating: I changed the tag from T to M, because of sex in chapters 25, 29 & 39.
    Chapter 40 - lying to people you love, depictions of a woman in meltdown, probably dv tbh.
    Chapter 44 - depictions of the early stages of labour.

    Summary

    While Commander Rynn Shepard deals with the most critical of missions, it falls to the good people over at N7 Spec Ops to hold the line in various smaller, but still important battlefields all over the galaxy. This is the story of one of their squads. Follow the adventures of Evelyn Rodgers, spunky Alliance combat engineer, and her teammates.

    This is a novelization of M3 multi-player. I love Garrus, but I had inspiration for a different kind of turian romance, and I didn't want to distort everyone's favorite vigilante, so I just had to make up my own lovable spiky alien and his Alliance woman.

    This story is a spin-off of Turians do not lie, and will feature a cameo by everyone's favorite crew.
