Arten Dal-Allean is an alien diplomat caught between the rules of his people and attraction to a human woman. After freeing a Baylan and his mate from the secret alien testing facility she worked at, Arten has been keeping research scientist, Chloe Riker, in hiding. Now, the organization who had employed her wants her dead, and a peace agreement prohibits him from taking her aboard his ship. When she’s abducted from the safe house, Arten has to decide how far he will go for a woman who can never be his. Chloe may awaken all his protective and passionate instincts, but no soul marks appear on his chest to indicate she is his biological mate. Arten has always played by the rules—he made most of them—but how many will he break to make her his? Chloe Riker fell for Arten long before they met. Their secret correspondences and work to take down the corrupt group she worked for slowly broke down all her walls. She’d hop on his alien base ship and into his bed forever, but her touch doesn’t seem to trigger the soul mark that would signal their true mating, and only humans who are true mates of an alien can board a base ship. As Chloe’s past catches up to her and ex-employers bent on revenge close in, Chloe has to use her wits to save herself and convince her alien lover to break a few rules. THE BAYLAN CHRONICLES: ARTEN is the third book in a romance series about hot alien males finding their mates with human Earth women. This is a stand-alone story with no cliffhangers, no cheating, and a guaranteed HEA (happily ever after).
