They took the sky from her, and her memory, but no one could take away her rebellious spirit. Mind-wiped and implanted with a death collar in case she should get out of line, Manitac's corporate flunkies told Tamarja Chase that love could never be a part of her new life. However, working on a paradise planet as the director's personal shuttle pilot does have its perks and Tamarja intends to take advantage of both. Perk number one: dark and sensuous Yohzad Cyrek, her parole officer and personal champion. Perk number two: Daeven Blayde, a blond and brooding badass, who can't decide if he wants to throttle her, kiss her, or both. Falling for Yohzad would scratch all her rebellious itches by breaking the rules about prisoner and officer relationships, but not even he has the power to set her free. Pursuing Daeven would be like loving a lightning strike: powerful, explosive, and deadly. But, when other mind-wiped slaves start disappearing, her love life quickly becomes the least of her worries. Death collar or not, Tamarja takes a stand-one that could not only kill her but lose her the man who truly loves her and force her to kill the other. If you like Lindsay Buroker, Michael Anderle, or Glynn Stewart, you'll walk comfortably inside the pages of this galactic sci-fi romance meets space opera adventure.
