New Eden

Survival takes generations. When the CFP Serendipity crash-lands on an uncharted world, its crew survives the impossible-only to discover that rescue will not come in their lifetime. An emergency beacon is transmitting, but the nearest inhabited system lies seventy-four light-years away. By the time the signal is heard, the people who sent it will be history. As the crew assesses their damaged ship and the paradise surrounding it, survival becomes something larger than repairs and rationing.
This planet is livable. Time is abundant. And the future will demand more than endurance-it will demand connection. Liliana, a sensor specialist trained to think in probabilities and long arcs, understands what the others are only beginning to accept: this is no longer a mission. It's a beginning. Old rules fade. New bonds form. And choices once considered unprofessional become necessary. New Eden is a space opera romance about legacy, proximity, and the quiet decisions that shape generations.
It is a story of competent people facing impossible time scales-and choosing, deliberately, to build a future anyway.
