When analyst Yana Carter tracks an unauthorized descent on her surveillance feed, she doesn’t know what she will find when she goes alone to check it out. 

Kael is a fugitive scientist, falsely accused, hunted by his own people, and badly injured when he crash landed. Stranded on Earth, he couldn’t run and had nowhere safe to hide. 

Yana knew she should turn him in, but instead she took him home. As she nursed him back to health duty, collided with desire and protecting him became a cost she was willing to pay. The beings coming for Kael weren’t coming to negotiate. They were coming to take him and destroy anything that stood in their way…person or planet.
