Years after the human generation ship crashed on Tajss, survival isn’t enough—especially for a woman who’s been told she’s weak.
Kara has spent years living in the shadow of stronger voices, scraping by in the dust and heat of a dying world. When she volunteers for a desperate hunt for food, she expects death.
Instead, she finds him—the scarred Zmaj warrior who will change everything. Drazan is battle-forged and haunted, a protector hardened by loss.
He swore never to love again, but the fierce, stubborn human he saves refuses to obey fear—or him. Her fire calls to something primal in his blood. His treasure. His mate. His reason to fight again.
Together they’ll face sandstorms, predators, and the ghosts of a shattered planet.
Kara will learn what it means to survive on her own terms—and what it costs to claim the heart of a Zmaj who has already lost everything.
