Ein Jahr ist seit den Geschehnissen auf der Venus vergangen. Holmgren hat alles verloren: seine Kameraden, seine große Liebe – und den Glauben an die Zukunft. Unverhofft holt ihn ein alter Bekannter für eine allerletzte Mission zurück. Diesmal steht das Schicksal aller Menschen und Pneumoiden auf dem Spiel. Denn während Europäer, Amerikaner und Chinesen einen brüchigen Frieden aushandeln, braut sich ein neuer Sturm zusammen, der alles zu zerstören droht.

The ice planet has given me a second lease on life, so I'm thrilled to be here. Sure, there's no cheeseburgers, but I'm healthy and ready to be a productive member of the small tribe. What I didn't anticipate was that there'd be a savage stranger waiting nearby, watching me. And when he takes me captive, the unthinkable happens . . . I resonate to him. Resonance means mating and children . . . but I don't know if this guy's ever been around anyone before. He's truly a barbarian in all ways, right down to clubbing me over the head and claiming me as his own.

When I wake up on the ice planet, I'm scared of everything: This place is cold, silent, and the locals look more like blue devils than aliens. To make matters worse, one of the strangers decides I'm going to be his girlfriend and kidnaps me away from my sister. I'm completely and utterly alone. What's a girl to do? Well, this girl escapes. Just when I have no hope left, a new hero appears. Sure, he's blue, horned, and has a tail. He's also fierce, protective, makes me purr...and thinks I'm perfect. But is what we have real or just a mating instinct?
