Synopsis

She came to this world soft. She refused to stay that way. Sloane Murphy didn't survive a crash landing on an ice planet just to have some arrogant alien warrior tell her she's not good enough. So what if Varn is the deadliest fighter in the settlement? So what if watching him move makes her forget to breathe? He thinks humans are fragile. She's going to enjoy proving him wrong. Varn has trained warriors for over two centuries. He knows what happens when the weak pretend to be strong—they die, and they take others with them. The human woman is fast, fierce, and infuriatingly skilled. She's also small, breakable, and makes his bioluminescent glow betray him in ways he can't control. When an ancient enemy attacks the settlement, Sloane and Varn are forced to fight side by side. The resonance between them—the soul-deep connection his people call a mate bond—ignites at the worst possible moment. Now they must survive not just the Hollow threat, but their growing need for each other. Because the darkness is coming. And love might be the only weapon strong enough to stop it.
