missing and intergalactic mercenaries on her trail, her decision to cooperate
with Major Damen Sindrivik may prove advantageous...if she can control her

keeping...Damen, a spy from a rival government, will use anything, including
his predatory instincts, to achieve his mission...locating Jayleia's father.
She reacts to Damen's charm and
seductive power, so why does he question her motivation?Conflicted loyalties
and enemies abound...Traitors and the alien enemies threaten to destroy the
galaxy. Jayleia must choose.
Excerpt:
Damen, fully
dressed, left the tiny chamber by stalking straight up to her and glaring at
her, a knot in his jaw. If she backed up, she’d collide with the bed. His bed.
Muscles low in her abdomen clenched tight. Confusion rocked her. What had
happened to make her react to the man? She sidled away, circling toward the
open shower door. He leaned in, his gaze holding hers. Rational thought
evaporated. She stumbled into the sanitizer. “What aren’t you telling me?” he
murmured, his gaze fixed on her mouth. The air left her lungs and she struggled
to recall that she had no business hoping Damen would make good his implied
threat to kiss her. Pressing her lips tight, trapped by his gaze, she nudged
the button to activate the system. The door shut in his face.
