After taking the job of a lifetime as the head of medical on a state-of-the-art ship heading out to unexplored space, Dr. Hilary Grant faces more unknowns than she could ever have expected.

It's not just the large, sexy alien men that fascinate her, but the deeply buried desires that flare to life when Hastian makes his feelings toward her known. Haunted by a terrible past, Hilary needs to be in control in every part of her life – even between the sheets.

Hastian spent his whole life fighting to become a strong, capable warrior, but when Hilary's past comes to light, she needs more than just his strength to survive. Baring his weakness to someone that should never see him as anything less is the hardest thing Hastian has to do.

New allies and an unexpected enemy are about to change the lives of billions of people back home, but they need to survive the past first.
