A YA novel filled with adventure and romance set in the world of Galaxy's Edge, the Star Wars-themed land coming to Disneyland and Walt Disney World tin 2019. Izzy and Jules were childhood friends, climbing the spires of Batuu, inventing silly games, and dreaming of adventures they would share one day. Then, Izzy's family left abruptly, without even a chance to say goodbye. Izzy's life became one of constant motion, traveling from one world to the next, until her parents were killed and she became a low-level smuggler to make ends meet. Jules remained on Batuu, eventually becoming a farmer like his father, but always yearning for something more. Now, thirteen years after she left, Izzy is returning to Batuu. She's been hired to deliver a mysterious parcel, and she just wants to finish the job and get gone. But upon arrival at Black Spire Outpost she runs smack into the one person who still means something to her after all this time: Jules. The attraction between them is immediate, yet despite Jules seeming to be everything she's ever needed, Izzy hesitates. How can she drag this good-hearted man into the perilous life she's chosen? Jules has been trying to figure out his future, but now all he knows for certain is that he wants to be with Izzy. How can he convince her to take a chance on someone who's never left the safety of his homeworld? When Izzy's job goes wrong, the two childhood friends find themselves on the run. And all their secrets will be revealed as they fight to stay alive...

      Long-lost friends find themselves swept up in old feelings and thrust into the midst of a dangerous pirate operation. Abandoned by both her boyfriend and smuggling crew, black-haired, golden-skinned Izal Garsea accepts a new job delivering a mysterious parcel to Batuu, a planet on the Outer Rim and her childhood home. After quitting his job, Julen Rakab (who has golden-brown skin and brown, curly hair) hopes to see more of the galaxy than the Outpost and grain farms, but something has always held him back. Thirteen years have passed since Izzy and Jules dreamed of exploring the stars together, but when fate (or the Force) entangles them in trouble with Izzy's parcel delivery and the ruthless captain of Izzy's former crew, desire for reconnection draws them to help one another. Tension between the First Order and the Resistance looms in the background of their story. The chapters alternate between Izzy's and Jules' perspectives, and themes of home and family play important roles in the internal growth of both protagonists. Feelings of uncertainty and romance that develop between Izzy and Jules add a satisfying layer of will-they, won't-they suspense to the rapidly unfolding conflict. While the story can stand alone, the epilogue hints at more to come. A fast-paced and alluring adventure in a far-flung corner of the galaxy. (Science fiction. 12-18)
