Publisher's Synopsis
���� He was supposed to be a monster. Instead, he became the only one she could trust. ����
She killed the man who owned her. But the past won't let her go.
Vala Rho is a survivor. She's bled, fought, and clawed her way out of the Syndicate's grip. But when a dying man delivers a message that changes everything-her family might still be alive-Vala is forced to make an impossible choice: bury the past or risk everything to uncover the truth.
The only one standing between her and certain death? Rogan.
A ruthless Azhari warlord with blood on his hands and a hunger in his eyes. He's lethal. Unpredictable. And the only person who's never lied to her.
Their alliance is fragile. Their chemistry is explosive. And in the farthest reaches of space, where betrayal is currency and love is a weakness, Vala and Rogan will have to decide: run, fight, or burn together.
���� Perfect for fans of brutal action, slow-burn tension, and dangerous romance set against the backdrop of an unforgiving galaxy.
She's hunted. He's feared. Together, they'll ignite a war the Syndicate won't survive.
Vala Rho didn't set out to become the most wanted bounty in the galaxy-she just wanted to disappear. After her crew was slaughtered in a Syndicate raid, Vala went underground, hiding behind forged identities and stolen ships, one step ahead of the hunters on her trail. But the Syndicate doesn't forgive, and they don't forget. Especially when you steal from them.
Rogan, an exiled Azhari warlord, knows better than to get tangled up with a human fugitive. But from the moment Vala crashes into his life-bloodied, defiant, and entirely too tempting-he can't stay away. She's chaos wrapped in curves, a walking target with secrets that could burn them both.
When the Syndicate puts a bounty on both their heads, Vala and Rogan have no choice but to fight back. As betrayal, desire, and old vendettas collide, survival means trusting each other-and the heat simmering between them might be more dangerous than the enemies hunting them across the stars.
Because in a galaxy ruled by crime lords and killers, falling in love is the most dangerous risk of all.
For fans of Dark Fantasy sci-fi romance with sizzling enemies-to-lovers heat, action-packed twists, and a heroine who refuses to surrender.
