The Dragon…
Talon Rift is one of the best in the business, and his business is tough. As a soldier in the elite Dragon Corps, Talon is efficient, deadly, and nigh unstoppable. As a leader, he's famously protective of the men and women he leads. And for very, very personal reasons, Talon refuses to rest until the Warlord of Ymir is taken down.
The Assassin…
Unfortunately for Talon, the Warlord knows he's being hunted - and he's sent assassins to make sure Talon and his crew are taken out. Unfortunately for the Warlord, however, one of those assassins on Tera - a woman he rescued from the slums of Osiris, a woman of absolute loyalty. ...And a woman, as it happens, who never knew just who her protector was. To protect him in return, Tera will stop at nothing to take Talon down - and having forbidden her to take this mission, the Warlord will stop at nothing to get Tera back before she learns the truth about him.
And an inconvenient, undeniable attraction…
The battle was always going to be close. Talon and Tera are two of the very best, weapons honed in the fires of battle. The problem that no one could have foreseen, however, was the heat between them. As lies and truths converge, and the final showdown grows ever closer, will the two warriors learn from one another how to love? Or will they destroy the one person who might have understood them?
Major Talon Rift is AWOL from the Dragon Corps along with his crew. They are hunting the Warlord of Ymir to make him pay for his many crimes. The warlord is a very rich and powerful man, with seemingly limitless places to hide.
Tera Soras was a homeless orphan fighting for her life, when she was found and given a way to better herself. Now years later she is her father´s most highly trained assassin. When she hears someone is trying to kill her adopted father, she decides to kill them first, even though he has forbidden her to.
This all action Sci-fi is an unusual romance. There are a lot of vicious fights and space battles. You can't help but root for our enhanced heroine as she discovers things she doesn't want to believe. Our honourable hero must take the lives of men he once worked with. This takes a toll on his conscience. Will he also have to kill Tera, or will she kill him first ?
This is the second book of the series and is best read in order. That way you will find out the crimes the warlord committed. I look forward to reading the next book.

Raised on the Dragon Riders of Pern, Star Wars, Star Trek, and a whole bunch of historical romances, Michaela grew up adoring the adventure of Science Fiction and the passion of a good love story. Filled with double crossing, grand romantic gestures, sarcasm, and plenty of heat, Michaela's books are just the sort of thing she wants to read herself!
