New York Instances bestselling author Diana Palmer returns with another edge-of-your-seat installment of The Morcai Battalion series.

Rhemun, commander of the Cehn-Tahr Holconcom, spent some time working tirelessly to obtain where he is-and he’s not really going to allow any human pull him back down. Especially not really Lt. Commander Edris Mallory, whose very existence aboard the Morcai acts as a too-painful reminder of the previous tragedy he can neither forgive nor ignore. But Mallory has secrets of her own-ones she can’t afford to find out emerged.

Frantic to safeguard herself, she flees, abandoning her position. When Rhemun discovers of her damaging situation, he realizes the all-consuming emotions he’s harbored on her behalf may possibly not be hatred. However in a vast universe rife with peril, is it already too late?
