Lord of the Dark Sun

HER DARKEST HOUR
Ariana awoke in chains, a captive. Her ship had been disabled and her friends hurt, and she was to blame. She had cajoled them into braving the outskirts of space, the uncontrolled areas beyond her father's rule. And now they were to be transported to a non-Intersystem planet where they would be slaves.

A MOMENT OF LIGHT
The world was bleak and shadowy, as were its inhabitants. And though these men were slaves as well, that hardly made them less dangerous. Each was tall, muscular and virile. And ruled by animal instinct. Yet one rose above the others, and Ariana saw in him nobility. This was a prince in a barbarian's body, one who could teach her how to be wild. On this planet with its dark sun, Ariana knew he would help her survive. And she would show him a love that would last through whatever followed.
