Alien Mercenary's Wife

She was their loose end. Now she's their worst nightmare.Former tank commander Reese Payne is living on borrowed time. Her neural implants are killing her slowly while she's forced to dodge corporate assassins sent to bury the evidence.When they finally track her down, she's ready for a fight—what she's not ready for is the seven-foot alien who rips through her attackers like they're made of tissue paper. T'Raal is huge, dangerous, and trusting him is probably the dumbest move she's ever made. But when his touch quiets the chaos in her head and he looks at her like she's worth dying for, she has to figure out what scares her more… dying alone, or letting this handsome stranger become everything she never knew she needed. His secret could shatter an empire. Her survival depends on it.T'Raal has his life figured out: keep the crew breathing, stay off the radar, and don't let anyone get close enough to complicate things. Simple... until he pulls one stubborn human woman from an ambush and she turns his whole world upside down. She fights like hell, trusts him when she shouldn't, and makes him want things he gave up hoping for years ago.Problem is, keeping her alive means claiming the birthright he's spent his life running from. But watching her die isn't an option—even if saving her means claiming the destiny he swore he'd never face.In a galaxy that wants them dead, the greatest battle will be for each other.
