Rose is a doughy twenty-something, transplanted from a life of making coffee to the harsh wilderness of a moon in a distant galaxy. Arman is a native, committed to proving himself as her perfect mate. Unable to communicate-and unsure of their anatomical compatibility-they can't help but be drawn to each other for exactly the things that make them different. But as their connection grows, Rose can't shake that, for all that Arman dotes on her, it's his fault she was kidnapped from Earth in the first place.
