As the war unfolds on both worlds, Mercy struggles to survive and keep morale as she finishes up her second week in complete isolation. Worried that she may be the last surviving human in her area—or the world—she is shocked one night when she discovers a wounded man has broken into her clinic upstairs and collapsed. She rushes to his aid—only to discover that she has saved the life of a Torian warrior. Zarun saw his planet's capitol reduced to rubble in the humans' initial attack, and entered the war to end the threat to his world. But he soon found himself embroiled, not in a standing war with trained soldiers, but in the occupation and destruction of a town filled with innocent civilians. When he resisted the order to kill, his vicious squad commander put him on potentially deadly scouting detail as punishment. Badly injured by an improvised bomb, he was left for dead by his squad—and crawled his way to shelter, acting on pure instinct. Now, tended to by a traumatized but kind human healer, he awakens in her shelter—and quickly realizes that he has imprinted on her as his lifelong mate. What should be a genetic impossibility becomes hope for a new future for both races as Mercy and Zarun struggle to survive together and support each other. As trust barriers fall between them, they become lovers, solidifying their bond and pledging to each other. But when Zarun's old squad discovers their shelter and threatens Mercy's life, the alien warrior must chose between loyalty to his own people, and love for the mate who saved his life when his own left him for dead.

She should have been more worried about the danger that lie ahead. Pulled into a secluded alley, held against her will, Maya fought her captor with all she had. But would she have any strength left to fight the man who came to her rescue? Caleb was a powerful man who was determined to change Maya’s life forever, even if it was against her will. Would Maya have the courage to accept a lifestyle completely adverse to anything she'd ever known? Could she endure Caleb's unbearable demands if it meant finally having the family she had always longed for? Would her heart survive accepting his proposal? This full novel is NOT a sweet romance. This book contains dubious consent, sexual arrangements outside of the main character romance, and explicit scenes in addition to firm spankings given with the intent to discipline, not arouse. It also includes light bondage and other situations that some may find difficult to read. If you are averse to severely dominant men who are in complete control of their women, this book is not for you, and I urge you to please find a book more suited to your taste.***This version has been professionally edited with additional material included as of 11/13/2016.
