    Summary

    Simon Evergreen was a gifted engineer whose life went to shit on the cusp of his biggest career breakthrough. Three years into his prison sentence, after a devastating accident, he finds himself unexpectedly recruited and tasked with designing a spaceship meant for interstellar travel. The Hail Mary. It was his second chance and he was determined not to waste it, even as his haunting past loomed heavy and refused to let him go.
    Ryland Grace was once a molecular biologist deep in the throes of academia. But after writing a controversial paper he went too far to defend, his time as a respected scholar came to an abrupt end. Five years into his teaching career, he was recruited by Eva Stratt to study the alien life-form responsible for dimming the Sun. Maybe this would be the first of many do-overs, if he was ready to face his past shortcomings.
    But 11.9 light-years from Earth, both men wake up with no recollection of anything. As they try to piece the puzzle of their lives back together, they rebuild the bond they once had. All while trying to come to terms with the weight of their mission and their seemingly inevitable deaths.

    Summary

    Grace had survived space.

    He had survived The Hail Mary project, an alien planet and becoming friends with an alien from said planet. He had fished Simon up from a blood ocean, and survived the small matter of saving the entire world. After all that, settling down on Erid should have been the easy part.

    And for a while, it was.

    Rocky was home, and Erid was peaceful. Simon was healing. Grace had a routine, a job, a quiet house, and something dangerously close to happiness.

    Then Simon started staring at him.

    Not normal staring.

    The kind of staring that makes Grace wonder if he has done something wrong. If Simon is angry with him. If he has accidentally offended him. Or if he is about to become the first human casualty on Erid. The problem is that Grace has grown head over heels for Simon, and does not want to ruin anything between them.

    Which makes it especially unfortunate that Simon has recently started acting like the world's politest horror movie villain.

    Grace had survived space.

    Surely he can survive one weird roommate.

    Probably.

    Summary

    Grace has been the only human on Erid for… way too long, so when a man crawls out of the ocean, he does not know how to react but he‘ll do whatever it takes to keep him healthy and as happy as Grace can make him. And oh how violently he missed human contact.

    *cuddling etc starts in chapter 4 in case someone wants to skip Grace‘s misery and them meeting?
