Publisher's Synopsis
Jackson Baine is a man with a gift and no problem selling it to the highest bidder. His newest job with Ferrell Terraforming INC will net him and his crew enough currency to retire on any planet in any galaxy they choose. The only issue with the new job is the corporate liaison assigned to him by the company. Jacks doesn't want or need a babysitter, and this prim woman is just enough distraction to get him, or someone he loves, killed during the mission. Lia Bernardi will do anything to climb the corporate ladder and get out from under her derisive boss. Proving herself to Kev and her father by completing the job no one else could is exactly what she needs to get her own corner office. The only issue is Jacks Baine. The man is mysterious, sexy and far too self-assured. Exactly the kind of man who might screw up. On a desolate planet far to the edge of the December Quadrant, an ancient evil has awakened. It's hunger knows no bounds, and left unchecked it could devour the universe. Can Jacks and Lia use the bond between them to destroy the beast, of will it end up destroying them instead?
