He saves her life...she wrecks his sanity—a spicy, funny sci-fi romcom with grumpy/sunshine banter, forced proximity, and one very protective alien hero. Sunny Craythorn has a problem. Her Kindred bodyguard, Greer, does everything a man in love would do—ties her shoes, carries her over mud puddles, saves her from danger again and again. The only catch? He does it all with a scowl. Greer knows he’s hopelessly gone for the curvy, sunshine-bright scientist he’s sworn to protect. But as a Pitch-Blood Kindred, his bite is painful to anyone but his Fated Mate—and since finding one is a billion-to-one shot, he’s resigned himself to wanting Sunny from afar. Until their mission to Thropp’ic Sigma changes everything. Here, the women choose their partners…topless. And when every male on the planet wants Sunny, Greer has no choice but to claim her as his. Even if it means proving his right in the most scandalous way possible—on the infamous Chair of Female Pleasure. Now the grumpy protector is about to become the possessive alien lover—and Sunny’s about to learn just how sweet her scowling Kindred can be. Perfect for fans of grumpy/sunshine romance, bodyguard protector heroes, forced proximity, only one bed, fated mates, and laugh-out-loud sci-fi spice.
