| He was one of thirty-one aliens who had landed on this remote world and dispersed among the populace, unidentifiable because of their shape-shifting abilities. Jebaral had hoped for a life. A chance to be free after escaping years of slavery and cruelty. But when he met Hannah Pitt, there was no way he could turn away from her or from the feelings she evoked in him. Could he risk loving this woman? Would she even accept him for what he truly was? After all, she’s human - he’s not remotely human. Worse, the Arra are out looking for their lost cargo and they won’t stop until they’ve reclaimed their property.
They escape slavery, find a new home and separate from each other, all they have left of the home they left behind, to make a way for themselves on this new planet. Such an attention-grabbing premise for a series! Fortunately, the author lives up to the anticipation. I truly enjoyed this book. The plot was well thought out and kept you interested throughout. Both Jeb and Hannah grab at the reader, they embody a combination of strength and vulnerability that makes you want to see them succeed and be happy. Though the threat of the Arra adds spice to he story and action at key points this is by no means a suspense novel, so don’t expect that. This is a fiery and fascinating romance novel and an fabulous account of aliens come to earth.
