Zara: Betrayed by someone I thought I could trust. Disowned by parents who never loved me anyway. Which means I have nowhere to go except to another planet. To my surprise, this new life on Tavikh is almost better than my previous one. Towering lavender aliens with long, golden-blond hair, muscles for days, and tails that put naughty, wicked thoughts in my head. So what if the village is a little primitive and I'm struggling to find my place? But then some a-hole aliens from another tribe decide they need women and the next thing I know I'm slung belly-down over some mutant camel-lion-thing. Somebody better rescue me for my sake and for the sake of the dude whose life I'm about to make miserable.



Kyler: At forty cold seasons, I am almost considered an elder of the tribe. Which is why I should not be drawn to one of the human females who lives in our village. She is most likely the mate of one of the younger warriors. Yet my eyes are constantly drawn to the weapon maker's apprentice, with her curves that make the tips of my fingers tingle with the need to explore. When she is taken captive by Njeri warriors, I volunteer to join the rescue party. Despite being our tribe's healer, I will destroy anyone who dares hurt her. Soon, I discover that it is not only her body I must heal, but also her heart.
