A Klevian warship rams into a human spacecraft with Shay, her family, and several hundred in-stasis colonists aboard, causing all to crash onto the nearby planet. Galidin (H), a Klevian warrior, awakens in the crash with no memory of the bitter conflict between the Klevians and human, though he does find himself drawn to Shay. The Klevians and humans will have to work together if all are to safely make it down from the dangerous, high-altitude, snow-covered mountain they’ve crashed on. As Galadin and Shay spend more time together, he becomes convinced she is meant to be his mate, though Shay refuses to bond him to her unless his memories come back, and he truly still wants her. But accidents will happen eventually things take a very hot, steamy course. Lots of action and adventure. More background as to the relationships between Galadin and his Klevian brothers. While I think you can read this story on, to fully appreciate things I’d recommend reading the prequel Varimar and Book 1 Tacori.

There's nothing worse than having a space ship crash into you.....well maybe there is when that ship is your sworn enemy.

Shay, is a strong independent woman who has no need or desires for a man. That is until her and her family board the Klevian ship that crashed into them. Finding two Klevian males aboard, her and her family need to help them. One who is injured and another who is unconscious.

When Gilidin starts to wake, his senses are on high alert. The female's voice, her smell. His female. He knows without a shadow of a doubt that she is his mate. Unfortunately for him though he doesn't remember the cold war between the Klevian's and humans, but his desires for her do not diminish when she relays current events. With his loss of memory Shay fears that once he gets his memory back all hell will break loose and she will be left with a broken heart.

This is the second book in this series, but technically the third. Varimar and Tacori also found human mates. Galidin, as foolish as they were he refuses to follow in their footsteps. He will not betray his king.

I love everything about this series and L.P does not disappoint. The intense connections these characters have make you want to live in their world. I am so looking forward to the next book!.

Galidin, the male alien lead, is patrolling Klevian space, following up information provided by a distrusted human female. Shay, the female human lead, is on the colony ship coordinated by her father, moving towards a new planet. When Galidin’s ship crashes into Shay’s, they both crash on the surface of the planet. Galidin’s shipmate is rendered unconscious after providing their names, Galidin has no memory of who he is or the fact that he doesn’t like or trust humans, and he’s convinced Shay is his fated mate. Shay knows he won’t want her once he remembers and she’s determined not to touch him and seal the theoretical bond between them but a genuine accident forces contact.

When Galidin remembers who he is, he is furious with the situation and rejects Shay. Though she’d expected it, Shay is heartbroken. Later, when Galidin realises there is no second chance, Shay isn’t interested in trusting him. And they have mutual enemies on the planet attempting to kill them all…

This story is dual POV, well written and edited, and a great addition to the series. I enjoyed the naïveté that Galidin displayed whilst amnesiac, and the joy and enthusiasm he had. I enjoyed and appreciated Shay’s ethics and genuine attempt to wait for his memory to return so he could give informed consent to a bonding. I enjoyed their interactions with each other, as well as the integrated secondary characters that had meaningful impact on the trajectory of their relationship and the rest of the storyline. I enjoyed the relationship and personal development, and I’m looking forward to the next one!

I received a complimentary copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
