Product Description
She's a diplomat…
Danna MacFadyen of the League of Planets is assigned to investigate the explosion of a space freighter. She must use her psychometric skills to determine whether this was an accident or terrorism -- but for Danna, the hardest part of this assignment is working with Korcian Enforcer Cullon Gavriel.
He's a warrior…
Fighting isn't just in a Korcian's blood -- it's in his very soul. Cullon Gavriel already knows the freighter explosion was terrorism -- targeted at the Korcian prince traveling incognito aboard the ship. Cullon's single goal: to discover who is killing Korcian True Bloods. He never expects to become enchanted with a beautiful Terran female who has the ability to step into the past.
As the pieces of an explosive puzzle fall into place...
Danna and Cullon realize they have uncovered a conspiracy that stretches across the galaxy. The trail leads to the capitol city of the Korcian Empire, where shocking secrets lie hidden-- and where the lines between politics and love cross unexpectedly.

Danna found herself staring into a pair of predatory eyes. It wasn't like her to let a man affect her mental equilibrium, but the Korcian did. There was something strikingly haunting about the way he looked; strong and uncompromising, as powerful as a tiger. She sensed that when he approached a woman he'd move just as confidently, circling his prey, playing with her emotions until he pounced with a sensual precision that would leave her helpless to resist. He had that power about him, the power to entice -- to seduce.
Danna didn't have any misgivings about her ability to represent the League. Diplomatic manners aside, she was a tough-minded lady when it came to doing her job. Unfortunately, that determination didn't neutralize her curiosity -- a purely feminine inquisitiveness that had her wondering what it would be like to be held in the Korcian's strong arms…
