At the edge of civilization, this city girl meets her alien match. Pia I’ve got big dreams. I’m all set to become a pilot at the biggest interstellar space port I can find. So when my dodgy freighter ship crash lands on a mysterious planet, I’m just looking to find the fastest way off-world. Unfortunately the only person around for miles is Qol’rakii Protector, Volrai. Well, him and his not-so-tame dragon! I swear that dragon has it in for me. There’s nothing here but dirt and grass. Volrai is strong, capable and totally gorgeous, and I’ll admit I’m just a little bit curious about what he can do with that tail! But he’s taken a vow to wait for his fated mate. Could my luck get any worse? Volrai Life as a Qol’rakii Protector can get real lonely. But tradition dictates that I must protect the most vulnerable creatures of my homeland from outside poachers. They’e hunted for the aphrodesiac pheromones they produce during mating season. Until I find my fated mate I must suffer through the rakii heat as best I can. When the fiery little human crash lands in the middle of my flock I instantly feel drawn to her. It can’t just be the pheromones. I know there’s something more. She doesn’t belong here. She couldn’t be the one I’ve waited for. But what can I do when the urge to claim my little shooting star becomes too great to resist?

Abducted, stranded… fated? Faith For once, I left behind the family farm and headed for the nearest space station. But I should’ve known I couldn’t trust just anyone. Soon, I was in the hold of an alien ship, held captive while a crew of fearsome creatures salivated over me. I manage to escape by chance, sneaking away from the ship after an attack., Lost in the wilderness of an alien planet, I am awakened by Audun. My alien rescuer is utterly beautiful and exactly the kind of guy I could easily lose my heart to. I’ve already fallen for his adorable dragon companion and I’m half in love with the pristine planet they help protect. So when he brings me to safety and watches over me, he’s almost irresistable, despite the language barrier. When we finally get my translator working and I find out he’s taken an oath to wait for his fated mate, that shouldn’t be a problem. I have responsibilities back on Earth after all. So why am I finding the thought of saying goodbye so darn impossible? Audun I will do anything to protect my planet and my people, for I am slated to be their next leader. I’m sent to investigate the abandoned ships of our defeated enemies and report back. But when I discover the sleeping form of a human woman in the grasslands, I know that I have found trouble. My oath is to wait for my fated one, but how can I keepmy gaze from lingering on her magnificent beauty? How do I resist the sweet sunshine of her kind nature? When fate seems to push us together at every turn, how can I ignore the signs the universe is sending me? Torn between my responsibilities to my people and the bond that is forming between Faith and me, I soon discover that the universe has more in store for me than I ever imagined. Is she my fated one? And if she is, can I bear to keep my promise and help her go back to her home?
