She fell from the stars. He was waiting to catch her.
Dr. Salosa Vyn wanted nothing more than a quiet planet to conduct her xenobotany research. Instead, an impossible energy pulse shoots her shuttle out of the sky, leaving her stranded on the deadly, uncharted jungle world of Kelthara-9. Armed with nothing but her scientific mind and a fierce will to survive, she expects to face the planet's predators alone. She certainly doesn't expect him.
Gael'en Torr-Ka is a lethal, seven-foot-tall alien warrior known across the galaxy as the Ghost Blade. Bound by a strict code of honor and haunted by past grief, he works alone. But the moment he finds Salosa in the wreckage, his bioluminescent skin blazes with an impossible color: violet. The undeniable mark of a ka'torr-a fated mate.
Divided by a vast language barrier, the botanist and the warrior must build a bridge of trust one word at a time. But Kelthara-9 is not the empty world the surveys promised. Ancient, glowing ruins are waking to the resonance of their connection, and a ruthless band of dishonored hunters has arrived to claim that power for themselves.
To survive the jungle and the enemies hunting them, Gael'en and Salosa must do more than fight. Gael'en is determined to let Salosa choose her own destiny, but with time running out, their only chance at survival is to surrender to a bond that will rewrite both their souls.
