博客來Although the universe sees her as a small and weak human, Lakin isn’t one to backdown from a fight. But what if the fight is against her own feelings?
Lakin left the small human colony on Develia station with big dreams of making a difference in the universe. The ships she works on often run on the edge of legality by smuggling supplies. Sometimes they even operate totally beyond the law by transporting refugees or runaway slaves.
On one such illegal job, she gives herself up so everyone else can get away, which puts her in the hands of a powerful species called the Talin. She’s tortured and abused by one group, but later she’s coddled and cared for by others. She’s not sure what to make of this species, yet all the humans she meets seem to adore their Talin owners.
Distrustful and constantly looking for a route to escape, she becomes acquainted with a Talin named Dalt, an ex-soldier with demons of his own. Soon she finds herself embroiled in a civil conflict among the Talin. Picking sides is easy; proving she can be an asset is a little tougher. However, the hardest part of all is deciding whether she can live under Talin law as a pet... or should she escape and leave Dalt behind?
This novel is part of a series but can be read as a standalone. This book is meant for mature audiences-readers eighteen and over only.
