**I received a copy of Steel Coyote from Net Galley and Entangled Publishing in exchange for a voluntary and honest review. My opinions are mine alone and not solicited in any way.**
Steel Coyote by Beth Williamson was surprisingly good for a Sci-Fi story plus the author is new to me and I'm crossing my fingers that Katie the "Turtle's" kick a** mechanic will get a book because I know there's a good story to be told there. There's the Corporation, "The Have's" that rules the skies, The Great Family (Who strong but reward those who follow) but it's the Have-Nots who have to find a way to fly under the radar and exist. There's a very interesting way via a bio chip that provides money to everyone.
Remy Hawthorne needs this cargo job badly as her ship is out of fuel and food plus she has two of her best crew counting on her. When she meets the job enough to accept Max Fletcher as her new pilot little does she know that he knows Haverty very well. After adding Max to her crew of two Foley, just don't let him arrange peppermint candy and Katie who can fix anything especially the Coyote and two twin teenagers, Max and Mason who are going to the same planet. They just need to deliver the cargo in 14 days to receive the rest of the payment without opening the box.
Max Fletcher escaped from the abuse of his father years ago and you guessed it he needs the transport job as much as Remy his Moral Compass, Saint, advises him to not get involved. He knows Haverty quite well and what goes on there with the cooperation of the Corporation/Military and wants to make sure Remy is safe delivering the cargo. But when the twins explain what's inside the box everyone on the Coyote will do anything not to deliver it to the planet.

This book has it all action, adventure, humor, angst and love. I loved Remi she is doing the best that she can under bad circumstances and much better than she thinks she is. Max is a hunky flyboy pilot with a sketchy past and a heart of gold. Who knew? When these two get together the universe shifts and we get a heck of a story.

Remy recently inherited her title as Captain of the Steel Coyote and is struggling to find a new job and make ends meet. Max is a confident pretty boy trying to score a pilot job on a cruise ship. When the two are unexpectedly hired for a high paying job, they have to decide if it's worth fighting for things to stay the same or if they will change themselves and their world.
This was an enjoyable sci-fi romance, which is a fun read if you're into space operas with a bit of action. It was a rather quick read, but I enjoyed how it was a sci-fi rather than a run of the mill contemporary romance.
There was the usual enemies to lovers trope, but I don't hate that. I did catch myself thinking several times that there was a lot of repetition in some aspects or scenes... we get it, Remy has nice assets. It also seems as though there may have been some influence from the Firefly TV series, but it was generic enough that I can't even say for sure whether that it was intentional or if I drew my own conclusions being a huge fan of the show.
There is profanity and a few detailed sex scenes, so this is not the book for you if you're looking for a clean romance. There are mentions of slavery and abuse, but it is not described in much detail, so I wouldn't say this is a darkly themed novel, but it's worth mentioning if you are especially sensitive to these topics.
Overall, I enjoyed this story and would recommend it to anyone looking for a fun space-themed action romance.

Remy has taken over as Captain of the Steel Coyote from her adoptice father. Whilst he was alive she got a modicum of respect, now she has to fight with everyone, who is not a member of her crew, for any work going. She meets Max when he somehow enviegles himself as the pilot of her ship and secures them a lucrative contract. Now lumbered with the far-too-hot-for-his-own-good pilot, she and the crew have to haul a secretive load and get paid on time.
Fabulously well written sci-fi romance. With charismatic leads and a great supporting cast in the crew, the plot fairly zipped along. Think a female Malcolm from Firefly with her hodge podge crew!
