As the illegitimate daughter to the queen of Colony 15, Kiana has no interest in power or politics, yet she's horrified by her mother's cruelty. When her mother orders an injured warrior from another colony to be thrown out with the trash, Kiana implores her for the opportunity to heal him. Kiana does everything she can to save him—including pretending to take him as a lover.

Chaldor wakes up in the arms of a dark chocolate angel with addictive kisses. He's willing to play the part of her pet. Kiana is the only good thing on C15 and he will take her with him when he escapes. She'll be his forever—even if there are people dead set against them being together.
