Lise
When I'm assigned to report on the alien bride program, I'm thrilled to get a break from the crowded city. No noisy apartment building. No synthesized food. But Mitra is nothing like I thought it would be. It's beautiful, yes, but it's also a rugged land on the border of enemy territory. It all changes when the warlord rescues me from being trampled by a ugris. Adrik is big and gruff and everything I never wanted in a man, but he's all I can think about.
Adrik
Only one of the females from Earth interests me and it's the one who isn't here to find a mate. While the lovely journalist is busy writing and taking pictures, our enemies to the north are consolidating their forces along the border I defend. When the females at our Thrail fall ill and our communications are cut off, I need Lise's technology and wits to win a battle that could devastate the Thrail. But I need Lise in other ways, and I am determined to show her that she belongs with me.
Contains mature themes.
