the firing. It came from somewhere beyond the rim of the sandy cliff behind
her. It took several minutes to scramble to the top of the slope and peer
cautiously above the edge.

| Specially for Ed! |
The battle sounded closer now, coming from the other
side of several low dunes looming before her. She bent low against a scorching
wind that lashed the sand around her into swirling eddies. She cursed as it snatched
several long strands of her hair from the scarf that struggled to restrain it
at the nape of her neck. Like a dark red mist, the unbound hair whipped across
her face, blurring her vision. She brushed it back, with a few more muttered
words of annoyance. As she reached the top of another low hillock, the sky lit
up with a scintillating green light and the sound of the weapons almost
deafened her. Her fingers tightened on her laser pistol, and throwing herself
to the ground, she inched her way to a group of thorny bushes for cover.
BLURB
Cat Kincaid is obsessed with killing the man she believes is responsible for the torture and death of her sister, but when she eventually catches up with him, survival becomes a greater priority than revenge.Kerry Marchant, haunted by memories, regret, and self-blame, shields himself from the pain of the past by committing himself totally to the starship, Destiny, of which he is part owner. However, the beautiful, red-haired woman who reminds him of his lost love, and who he suspects is working for a corrupt regime, represents a possible threat not only to the ship, but to his heart.
Marooned on an inhospitable planet, they need to work together to stay alive, fighting not only unknown assailants, but their growing attraction. But how can they learn to trust each other when he has vowed never to get close to a woman again, and she made a solemn pledge to destroy him?
