Stalker Knight is one of six Cyborg Marine Rangers tasked with restoring law and order to the American West after an interstellar war left Earth in ruins. Each of them hopes to find the one woman designed to be their genetic mate. Stalker finds his when he pulls a pilot from the wreckage of a doomed aircraft moments before it explodes. But Neely Albert—a former prostitute turned smuggler—isn’t exactly thrilled to hear she’s his fated match. With her flyer destroyed, her smuggling days are over, and worse, she owes a dangerous overlord for the weapons lost in the crash. When Stalker offers her a way out—help him with reconnaissance in L.A. as part of the effort to rebuild—Neely sees a chance to escape her past. What she doesn’t expect is the undeniable pull between them. Stalker is more than ready to claim his mate. And as they journey west, he quickly realizes she’s not just a survivor—she’s the perfect partner. Now, all he has to do is convince her to stay. This book is age 18+ readers. Second Edition
