Kyrion and I have spent the last few weeks avoiding bounty hunters, along with the Arrows, the elite Imperium warriors tasked with capturing us. Now we’ve journeyed to a distant planet that’s supposed to be a refuge for truebonded couples, but when new enemies appear, we’re once again in grave danger.

All Ellie has ever wanted is freedom, but that's hard to find when Earth is under Levekk rule. She'll do anything for a better life under the domes of the city - even pledge herself to work as a housemaid for a member of the same alien species she's supposed to fear. Except her new boss isn't the clean-cut senator that he pretends to be. His icy eyes are like daggers, and his presence is captivating, but captivity isn't what Ellie signed up for. Signing that contract was meant to free her from poverty, not snare her in an entirely new type of cage.

It's not easy being human when Earth is run by aliens. Lena has been locked up, imprisoned in a multi-species penitentiary on Earth, and all she wants is to get back to what she's good at: keeping her sister safe. Kormak is a Levekk - a member of the same cold-blooded alien species that enslaved her planet - and he is the key to her escape. Kormak hates humans, and he's not afraid to show it. They burn hot and bright but are snuffed out quickly, and the last thing he wants is a human slowing him down. But she needs a protector, and he's drawn to her flame.
