Claimed by the Alien MercenaryA Steamy Alien Sci-fi Romance
She’s the mission. He’s the monster everyone fears. His claim might destroy them both.
Dani
I came to Radin chasing a miracle cure hidden in a flower. I never expected to become prey. Days of captivity leave my empathic senses burned out, my power little more than an ache beneath my skin.
Then Jaxin arrives, silent, shark-eyed, built for violence. When the rescue goes awry, he hauls me over his shoulder and runs. Alone in Radin’s humid jungle, survival means pressed bodies, shared breath, and heat that has nothing to do with the heat of summer.
As my empathy recovers, I feel what he hides. Control layered over hunger. Possession strangled by discipline. A truth he refuses to face: he feels more than he’s allowed.
Jaxin
Emotion is forbidden. My people, the Rummicaron, suppress it for a reason. But the jungle strips restraint bare, and my true nature claws its way to the surface: to claim, to protect, to possess a mate.
Dani doesn’t just tempt me, she awakens something ancient and dangerous. As Radin’s giant closes in and a crime lord tightens her grip, I must choose between duty and instinct.
And if I choose wrong, Radin will kill us both.
This is a standalone novel and the eighth book in the Monster Mercenary Mates series. This sci-fi monster romance features a not-so-emotionless, shark-like alien mercenary, a gifted empathic scientist, and a steamy HEA.

Reviews and Comments
I really enjoyed this newest addition to the Monster Mercenary Mates series and getting to know Jaxin & Danitalin. Seeing how the relationship between Jaxin & Dani grew as the story unfolded was entertaining and I also liked the Radin Giant Taktak that they befriend. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.
