When representatives from the planets of the troubled Akasha solar system meet to sign a peace accord, talks go awry, and a battle erupts. Cut off from their own spacecraft, the landing parties commandeer an alien starship to escape. Trapped onboard the Storm Chaser together, Commander Rhodie Menodora doesn't trust the sultry Sciroccon Spears who protect their planet's female president. Known as duplicitous assassins, he and his military unit are on alert for any unexpected moves by their dangerous new crewmates. He's just not prepared for the pretty little Sciroccon doctor who's snuck into their midst. When he's hit by phaser fire protecting his king, though, he's at her mercy. Dr. Breeze Caelestis took a vow to heal those who are hurting, even if it's the hard-nosed leader of the King's Guard from the patriarchal planet of Terrene. Tough and stubborn, Rhodie's a difficult patient to treat-but they need to learn to work together if they're going to survive. Living on the run from avenging space military forces, Breeze and Rhodie soon move beyond acceptance to desire, and alien enemies turn to lovers. Yet their starship romance may be short if they can't prevent a war between the planets
