It wasn't easy escaping from the ivory-tower prison I'd been locked in my entire life. And an escape plan that includes a one-way ticket to an alien planet might not have been one of my smartest ideas. But coming to Tavikh has been the best thing to ever happen to me.

If I don't count the vicious aliens who keep trying to kill me, along with the rest of the humans, that is.

After one of my friends turns out to be the fated mate of the leader of a friendly alien tribe, we move to their village for protection. I'm happy for her, but if I wasn't going to allow my parents to force me to marry someone, I'm certainly not going to let some goddess either.

Especially if it's to the jerk brother of the tribe leader.

I disagree with my brother's decision to allow the humans to live in our village. It only invites more trouble. Not only from our enemies, but now all the unmated warriors have become distracted. Just because my brother met his keeshla among the human females doesn't mean anyone else will.

All my hope and prayers to Deeka are devoted to finding our missing younger brother. I have none to spare for finding a mate. Even if one of the females fascinates me.

We are constantly clashing. I call her stubborn. She calls me arrogant. Until an accidental touch triggers my mating marks and ignites my soul light. When I discover she has been hurt in the past, I must prove to her that I am a male worthy of being her mate.
