She’s stopped hoping for love. He’s the half-wild dragon who refuses to let her go. Delilah has accepted a life alone on Tajss. With every Zmaj warrior already mated, she’s buried the dream of ever having someone of her own—until the day a massive, feral Zmaj seizes her and carries her into the desert. Jormund is feared by everyone…but he’s not cruel. Silent, powerful, and ruled by his inner dragon, he’s convinced Delilah is his fated mate—and he’ll protect her with unwavering devotion. Delilah just wants to get back to the Tribe. Jormund wants a chance to show her she was never meant to be alone. And in the burning sands of Tajss, the most dangerous thing she risks might be her heart. A steamy fated-mates sci-fi romance with a possessive alien hero, a determined human heroine, and a bond neither can deny.
