Morgan Starr is tired of saving the world. Presumed dead after jumping into an alien portal, Morgan fought tooth and nail to return to a world forever changed. Free from the horrors that she lived through under the alien king, Vrelk, she’s determined to reconnect with her little sister and put all things Vyalcaron behind her. Amidst the wreckage of the life she once knew, Gideon Blake becomes her anchor. Tension sizzles between them the closer they get until the spark ignites their friendship into something more—a force neither of them can deny. Only Vrelk refuses to let Morgan go without a fight. As the true intentions for Morgan’s return become clear, she needs to decide what future she’s fighting for. But will Gideon be able to trust her once he learns Vrelk’s hold on Morgan continues? Or will she have to make the ultimate sacrifice one last time to prevent another alien invasion?
