Book Description

Time is running out . . . Rion Jaqard has crossed a galaxy to convince Earth to help him free his enslaved people. When he meets a fascinating woman--an enticing dragonshaper--Rion must make a terrible choice between duty and honor. One desperate decision can save his world but at the expense of all he holds dear. Kidnapped . . . When Rion abducts her, Marisa Roarke, fiery telepath and a dragon tamer critical to Earth's recovery, is filled with anger and feelings of betrayal. But, when she discovers Rion's secrets, the hot, explosive attraction she's tried to deny is reinforced by empathy and a growing psychic bond that may change her forever. The power of passion . . . If Rion and Marisa don't find a way to trust each other and channel their passion, a vicious empire will finish the subjugation of Rion's planet. Maybe even Earth.
