About this eBook

A space cruise with her bestie seems like the vacation of a lifetime until Holly Winter gets abducted by aliens and finds herself on a slave ship. When the ship’s AI goes haywire and accidentally releases the prisoners from their cells, she makes a break for it—only to be kidnapped again by a huge horned and furry alien. Aeon claims to be a prince, but he acts like a royal jerk and refuses to let Holly go. However, she’s determined to locate her friend and somehow get home to New Terra.

Prince Aeon of Araset is enjoying his last breath of freedom from royal duties when he’s accidentally ensnared by slavers trafficking in alien species, including the protected but despised humans. At the first opportunity, he escapes in a tiny evac pod and lands on the nearest inhabited planet. In an impulsive act of sympathy, he takes a human female with him to save her from a fate worse than death. Now he’s stuck with the talkative, conspicuous nuisance. For her own safety, he can’t release her.

At odds, at first, Holly and Aeon quickly discover that on a hostile, dangerous planet, being friends and working together offers more benefits than fighting. But when friendship turns passionate, emotions remain guarded because both know they are loving on borrowed time. Upon their rescue, Holly must return to New Terra. A human would never be accepted on Araset, and Aeon must bond with a royal of his species to inherit the throne.

Can two lovers from different worlds defeat the forces against them and find happiness together?

Who would ever suspect that a space cruise trip won would actually be something else. I enjoyed this fast paced story with all of its ups and downs. Abduction, escape, covert intentions, fulfilling obligations all tied up with touches of heartfelt romance made this ma great read. Aeon and Holly were enjoyable to watch as they got to know each other-and more! With many details yet to be addressed, I’m looking forward to the next novel(s) in the series!.

Nothing I like better than an action/adventure/romance that seems doomed from the start. A son's been taught that humans destroyed there own planet and are lucky to have found a new one to call home. This just makes most beings look down upon humans. What he doesn't expect is to have his notions put to the test and to find himself inexplicably drawn to one. The more he gets to know Holly, the more he finds that her captivating. Loved the storyline as well as the characters. Highly entertain

This story is dual POV, well written, and an exciting start to a new series. I enjoyed Aeon’s wish for some self-determination, even as a prince. I enjoyed Holly’s willingness to engage and take risks, her lack of acceptance of a slave situation. I enjoyed their relationship development. I enjoyed the integrated secondary characters and am GREATLY looking forward to the rest of the series. The story finished happily for now and I’m hoping for more of these characters in future stories too. I’m a
