A rough and tumble alien warden, a curvy human woman who refuses to be cowed, and the temptation that turns both their worlds upside down...

I've worked so hard to establish the human-Zabrian mail-order bride program. I think I've done a pretty good job, too. Until a bombshell gets dropped:
The ranching outpost planet I've sent the human brides to is a penal colony. Their new alien husbands?
Convicted murderers.
In a panic, I rush to Zabria Prinar One to ensure the safety of the three brides. There, I come face-to-face with the arrogant (and astoundingly hot) alien warden. Warden Tenn is the most infuriatingly cocky adversary I ever could have imagined. He's a brash, swaggering male who seems to delight in bending rules...
And breaking down my walls.
He offers to take me into the neighbouring province to meet the other unmarried men. It's an attempt to persuade me to allow the bride program to continue. I don't trust him one bit as our rustic road trip gets underway.
Especially since his eyes grow white and hungry when he looks at me.
Especially since his voice softens to warm smoke when he speaks to me.
And especially since he only brought one tent.
