Physician, Heal Thyself...Kindara was a healer who could not heal the one thing that mattered most-her heart. Her mate was lost-murdered nearly thirty years ago; now she lived for only two things-finding medical care for her struggling Kind and protecting her grown daughter, Jierra, from the harsh realities of the world they occupied. She was his means to an end... Rathan was the displaced king of demons bent on revenge against Kindara's family, her beloved brother in particular. He got more than he bargained for when he kidnapped her and separated her from her daughter...Now they must work together to complete Kindara's quest-if they don't succeed she and Jierra could be the next of their Kind to be lost...and Rathan would lose the woman he'd waited centuries for...
