When
Kahlym cal Jhuen, freedom-fighting leader of the Chandar Stria, breaks into a
prison ship controlled by the Rimmarian Thrall, he only expected to rescue two
of his crew. But when he discovers a terrified female during his escape, he is
immediately captivated by her unique beauty and makes a snap decision to take
her with him. However, his good deed backfires when he learns he has stolen the
Thrall Emperor’s prize.
Down
to her last dollar, Evainne Wagner expected nothing out of the ordinary when
she stepped out of her Boston apartment. Instead, she found herself in the
middle of an intergalactic firefight, complete with strange soldiers with
deadly weapons pointed directly at her. Salvation arrives in the nick of time
in the form of a mysterious leather-clad warrior, skidding in and whisking her
away. Trusting her heart, she follows, hoping to find answers as well as a way
home.
Safely
on board his ship, he learns more about her and her rare skills, triggering the
memory of a half-forgotten prophecy spoken at the time of his cursed birth.
Outcast because of a cruel twist of fate, he finds unexpected acceptance, even
affection, from his new passenger.
Could
she be the one who holds the future of his people, as well as his own heart, in
her tender hands?

California home for most of her life, growing up in San Diego and attending
college in Northern California and Orange County, only to return to San Diego

and discover, making her wicked knowledge of trivial facts an unwelcomed guest
at many Trivial Pursuit boards.

Friends to keep her vocabulary sharp. She is currently the treasurer of the San
Diego chapter of Romance Writers of America and loves spending time working
with such amazingly intelligent and creative writers.
