A brutal beast of an alien monster burst into my kitchen, killed my husband, and abducted me. Now I find myself captive on a distant planet, caught up in royal alien intrigue, a political prisoner for reasons I cannot begin to understand. My alien captor's name is Tusk. He says hates humans. He pretends not to want me. But whenever I am near him, every part of his massive body tells me otherwise… He is my brutal alien. I am his human captive. This is our story.
