I may have almost died on this planet, but it hasn't broken me yet. At least, I'm working real hard to toughen up and become the kind of woman who'll be ready to board that spaceship and kick some Grivath a**. But, thanks to the way the overprotective warrior at my side insists on hovering, you'd be forgiven for thinking I'm fragile. I thought my biggest problem was figuring out how to make Tagiz see me as more than just the dying woman he had to rescue. But that was until we got the news. Because the aliens who came for us? They're not all dead. And the ones who survived? They want two things: Revenge, and the ship we're planning to use to leave Agron. Can we prevent them from taking our only ride off this planet? And if we can, will I be able to leave the warrior who saved me from certain death?
