New York Times and USA Today best-selling author of science fiction, urban fantasy, and paranormal romance brings another action-, adventure-, and suspense-filled story to transport listeners out of this world.
Prince Viper d’Rojah, a warrior from the Sarafin cat shifter species, is not happy when he is sent on a special mission by his older brother, Vox, King of the Sarafin. The mission is to deliver important documents to the human authorities before kidnapping the sister and grandmother of Vox’s mate, Riley. He has handled tougher assignments in his sleep and just wants to get back to finding the traitors trying to kill him and his family!
Tina St. Claire was finally happy with her life until her big sister, Riley, suddenly disappeared. Even Grandma Pearl suspected that Riley’s ex-employer was hiding something. Determined to find Riley, Tina’s research unwittingly leads the danger to her and Grandma Pearl. The unexpected arrival of a strange man causes things to go from bad to worse when he gives her and Grandma Pearl a packet of material he claims is from Riley. Riley had warned Viper that neither her sister nor Grandma Pearl would willingly come with him. Viper couldn’t care less whether the females wanted to come or not; he had never failed a mission and wasn’t about to start now.
Viper soon discovers this mission has turned into the most important one of his life when both he and his cat recognize that Tina is their mate. Now, he has to keep Tina and her gun-toting grandmother alive. The question is, who is going to save him when both women discover his plans to kidnap them?

Disappointed I am disturbed by the trend I see going on in these books. I don’t like the violence being perpetrated against the heroes for no reason. I might have found it funny when it was a one time deal, but in this book Viper is SHOT, pummeled and poisoned repeatedly by the two lead females. Why is this funny? It’s not! Why would the man have any interest in a woman that treated him like that? He wouldn’t!Â
Editor on holiday? Con: holy cow, there are a lot of really elementary mistakes here. After quotes, words life she replied, etc, she would not be capitalized. This was really annoying, and a very amateur mistake. Then, we have missing words, wrong tense, there, their and they’re mistaken… se smith is hitting all of my worst pet peeves. These mistakes are so unprofessional and completely avoidable.Â
