Some women aren't meant to be tamed... Some men would rather love a wild woman... Trina's been in love before and is done with all that nonsense. After a lifetime of not being able to count on anybody but herself, she's happy with the life she's created, thank you very much. She'll love her fabrics, and dote on her grandchildren, but leave the romance to the young and foolish. Enter Captain Maikedon Cretus. He's smart, sexy, and interested in more than Trina's body... and very interested in that, too. Careful and patient, he's laying siege to her heart until the walls she's built start to crumble. He's willing to wait as long as he has to in order to win his lady's love, and it's not looking like it's going to be as long as she thought... Until the alien dress Trina is altering for the wedding of the century turns up questions and a story of betrayal. Can they work together to solve the mystery and lay to rest an Emperor's dark past, or will the tangled web of woven lies and truth tear them apart?
