*A slow burn, angsty, enemies to lovers alien romance
She wanted what any other woman wanted, love. He wanted to return home to his most prized possession, his hoard. But fate has other plans. Plans neither of them suspected.
Tommie
She never expected to find love or to have a family of her own. It just wasn't in the stars for her. With humanity half-dead and the remaining elderly males locked away in protective domes, she is one of the last few humans left.
So when Earth suddenly announces its brand new program, the Repopulation Initiative, and introduces several mated pairs who had successfully conceived, of course Tommie is ecstatic.
But then a cancer diagnosis ruins it all. And to make matters worse, she's abducted by a crazy drakon whose wild conspiracy puts their lives in great danger.
Tommie knows she needs to get a handle on the alien escapee, but can she do that with her depression looming over her like a dark shadow?
Can she learn to let go of her trauma long enough to see what her heart truly desires?
Vaethys
Lured, tricked, and sent to Earth to be a mate, Vaethys does everything he can to avoid fulfilling the deceptive contract he suddenly finds himself bound to. He doesn't trust females, least of all the one he finds himself stuck with. All he wants is to return to Zrestia, to his precious hoard and the deep oceans which his heart calls home, far, far away from Tommie and the dreadful rock she calls a planet.
But just as things were starting to go his way, something unexpected happens. He lays an egg.
If there's one thing this
drakon knows, it's that he cannot return home without his unexpected mate and their unhatched young, but can Vaethys set aside his suspicions long enough to have all the things he deeply longs for?
Or will his deeply rooted mistrust get in the way once again?
