Things don’t always go as planned and Halyn finds this out on a supposedly simple rescue mission. As a spacemerc, he knows trouble and how to adapt to it. Until he runs into Natacha, the woman he is rescuing from PrimeC, where women are brainwashed, held against their will, and kept in passionate dreams by the use of machines. Her reactions to him…his reactions to her…all threaten the life he’d been leading.

Natacha has been unaware of anything beyond persistent passion and overwhelming needs for too long. She is confused as a strange man rescues her. As she suffers deep lust, a side effect of withdrawal from the gases used on her when she was a prisoner, she makes Halyn’s life a kind of personal hell. She wants him; he struggles to resist. But as time goes on…

This is a follow-up book to Deep Space Encounters: Reclaiming Isis, which I, unfortunately, have not read yet. I enjoyed the characters in this book, their unusual conflicts, and definitely the intense heat they struggled with. For a short novella, it was a great read, a hot read.
