When oceanographer, Ada Charles, is sent to study strange seismic activity off the coast of Northern California, she expects the expedition to be routine.

When a sex-on-a-stick alien abducts her and claims her as his mate, Ada's not about to submit to this alien alpha male.

Now she must convince Kyllell to join her rescue mission while resisting that sexy devil of an alien’s pull, but he’s not interested in helping her find her crew or her way home. An erotic interlude might be the only bargaining chip she has. Kyllell has been living in exile-without female companionship-for four long years. When he saves Ada from a Chassak attack, he knows she is his true bond mate, and he is ready for Ada to willingly welcome him into her loving arms. But his mate is not so willing or so loving. Defiant and willful, Ada challenges him in every way imaginable... ...and he craves her all the more for it. When an enemy from Kyllell's past threatens their tenuous relationship, he must find a way to protect himself and Ada from the corruption of the Elysium Council or risk being thrust into exile again and losing Ada forever.
