A cowboy on Tarron? Unbelievable.

Nyssa Dakros, potential hunter in training and dignitary escort, is tired of dealing with males who are only interested in her because of her family’s high-ranking status. And she absolutely refuses—no matter how much a male persists—to be claimed by one that isn’t her destined mate. An annoying situation made worse by her mother’s interference and constant insistence that she choose from a group of undesirable men.

Nyssa discovers the gorgeous human male who rescued her a forced claiming attempt is also her mate. How can she explain to someone who doesn’t understand or experience the primal instincts and urges of her people that he is meant to be with her forever? 

When the circumstances surrounding the recent attacks on the vessels delivering ore from Rivean escalate, Dawson Walker, a quadrant security contractor, is enlisted to protect the Earth’s ambassador during his visit on Tarron. The last thing Dawson expects is to have an exasperating, trouble seems to follow everywhere, woman fall into his arms—literally.
