The Portal's Gift

By Carol Holland March

When Earth joins forces with the friendly Teneran aliens to gain access to their hyperspace drive, Josh is the first human to copilot with a Teneran commander. They're assigned to the Marco Polo, a Terran ship designed to explore outside the solar system. With Paris, the enigmatic Teneran, at the controls, they explore distant worlds.

Not until a blinding sandstorm maroons Josh and Paris on a desolate planet does Josh realize the implications of the Teneran drive. He finds himself unaccountably attracted to the tall, taciturn alien whose ability to control the hyperspace drive has made Josh the most famous astronaut on earth. Until now, Josh has been staunchly heterosexual. Now he wonders if his travels through the portals of space will change his life forever.
