That someone might take your life from you and leave you stranded on a planet where most of the locals are out to get you.

I’ve always been the girl who’s nothing but a pretty face. The one used to distract the warriors so the others can move our plans forward. But now? Now, I have a chance to save us all. A chance to get us off this planet and back to Earth. Where we belong. Sure, this mysterious Braxian king may have helped us, and he may even make my skin tingle with an awareness I’ve never felt before. But it means nothing.

What’s worse than being stuck on an alien planet? Being stuck on an alien planet when you’ve made an enemy of the local tribe king. Okay, so I may have stolen his favorite misua and snuck away to find my friends. But he should’ve known better than to forbid me to go. I’m a marine, and we leave no man - or woman - behind. Besides, putting distance between us is a good thing, especially since I’m sure he’s coming after me.

Seasons ago, I resonated to the quietest of tribesmates, a male content to love me from afar while I was the center of attention. We could have been happy.

Just a few days ago, I was living my best life. Now? I’m on the run on a strange alien planet. Thanks to my short temper and a severe lack of self-control, I’m being hunted, and it’s only a matter of time before I end up captured or dead. Now, a hulking Braxian warrior has found me, right when it looked like I had no way out. To say that it’s suspicious timing is an understatement. Everyone knows you can’t trust the tall, dark, handsome types.

I made a deal with the devil. Okay, so he’s not really the devil, but he may as well be. The Tribe King is gorgeous, arrogant, and devious. He refused to hand over crucial information to help us find our friends until I agreed to stay with him. For a year. As far as I’m concerned, deals made under duress don’t count. Anyone who would demand such a thing in exchange for our friends’ freedom simply can’t be trusted. The problem? He may be calculating and autocratic, but he’s slowly slipping under my defenses and making me doubt everything I thought I knew.

The aliens who abducted me made a mistake. The Grivath have sold us on Gule - a planet known for dealing in human flesh. The women who are being held captive with me are in high demand and they all look like models. Me? I’m 5'2 shy, curvy, and a kindergarten teacher. Maybe they really meant to take my pageant queen sister? Our ship has crashed and half of the women are missing. Insert the tall, sexy warrior aliens, who saved us. Things are looking up, except that one of them is eyeing me like a snack, and not in a cannibalistic way - if you catch my drift.

I've been kidnapped by a dragon. Just when I thought my life couldn't get worse, I have been abducted by aliens. Now, I'm pretty sure I must be dying. Because only a vicious head injury could make me believe I'm actually flying through the air, trapped between a dragon's claws. Oh, and the dragon? He can talk. And he has all kinds of arrogant, ludicrous, and deranged things to say. Like the fact that he thinks he may just keep me.

I've loathed him since the moment we met. His silver eyes watch me relentlessly, making it clear he doesn't trust me. But it's not his mistrust that makes me hate him.

Now, I'm stuck on this journey with the man who makes me feel more...of everything.
