Description

Nothing says 'disastrous first date' like an alien murder.

Agent Lora Griffin signed up for a charity auction with aliens to raise money for a shelter—not to find love, and certainly not with an extraterrestrial. But when her alien date dies under suspicious circumstances, Lora finds herself at the center of an interstellar investigation with a partner she didn't ask for: a seven-foot-tall, all-muscle, blue-skinned alien bodyguard who's far too interested in calling her "mate."

Zhiruto didn't come to Earth looking for a mate. He's here to protect his prince. No distractions, no entanglements, no emotions. But Lora is unlike any female he's ever met: sharp, fearless, and completely immune to his charm. And the mating bond has already decided for him. She is his destined mate… even if Lora isn't convinced at all.

A steamy sci-fi romance where solving a murder is complicated... but resisting a possessive alien bodyguard is even more so. For fans of fated mates, humor amidst chaos, explosive chemistry, and a guaranteed happy ending.
