Synopsis

A deadly rogue warrior and enemy of the alliance has been placed in her care.

Dr. Charlotte Lockley is taken aboard the military vessel Tarus, carrying high-risk inmates and ordered to treat those badly injured, including Prisoner Zero—a dangerous vrisha prisoner captured on a human trade world.

As a doctor educated in alien medicine, Charlotte is one of the few that might keep the vicious alien alive long enough for him to be contained inside the max-security prison on the planet Fargis.

Despite his supposed crimes, Charlotte slowly begins to heal the broken warrior. Axrel as she comes to know him is like a viper—sleek, beautiful, and deadly. Though she's warned of his killer instincts, he never shows her violence.

Axrel, however, has hatred in his heart. And a need for vengeance against those who have wronged him. But the delicate, strong-willed doctor, soothes his fury. Her touch brings him calm, fills him with a different sort of need that burns as strong as his long-sought revenge.

When the unthinkable happens, their fragile bond is tested. Can Charlotte change his black heart or will revenge consume him?

Contains mature themes.

Goodreads review by Ashton on March 08, 2022

I was absolutely loving the first 2/3 of this book, especially that it centered around our doctor heroine helping to heal the wounded, yet still deadly, hero who is being transported to a prison planet. However, the last 1/3 fell flat for me, which I’m really saddened by. The book went from this gre......more

Thanks to Jess for suggesting I read this. Olivia Riley certainly knows how to write a tense sci-fi romance with excellent slow burn and development. Charlotte (h) was so competent and caring as a doctor who specializes in caring for various alien species. She's blackmailed by a group of government......more
