Western romance author Liza Daniels prefers writing adventures to living them.
But when her sister is imprisoned by a casino boss at the edge of the galaxy for a debt she can't pay, Liza has no choice but to leave her comfortable life behind and board a freighter captained by the last male she should trust in order to bail her out. Again.
Kloran Bek is a rogue with a plan: earn enough credits to buy his dream ship and spend the rest of his life answering to no one. Then Liza walks aboard.
The moment he catches her scent, he knows she's his mate.
The moment he realizes that, he decides to pretend she isn't.
Keeping his distance should be easy. Unfortunately, a mysterious star map he's recently acquired has attracted the attention of ruthless criminals who believe it leads to the legendary Heart of Osara-a treasure lost for millennia that's worth a fortune on the black market.
Now Kloran and Liza are racing across the stars to find the Heart first. Because if they can claim it before their pursuers do, they might finally be able to stop running.
That is, if they survive long enough to collect Liza's sister and make it home.
And if Kloran can keep the truth about their bond hidden.
The Heart of Osara is the first book in the all-new Romancing the Rogue series, featuring a reluctant heroine, a rogue captain, fated mates, treasure hunting, interstellar adventure, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
