From USA Today Bestselling Author Jasper T. Scott
HUMANITY IS DEFEATED
Ten years ago the Sythians invaded the galaxy with one goal: to wipe out the human race.
THEY ARE HIDING
Now the survivors are hiding in the last human sector of the galaxy: Dark Space--once a place of exile for criminals, now the last refuge of mankind.
THEY ARE ISOLATED
The once galaxy-spanning Imperium of Star Systems is left guarding the gate which is the only way in or out of Dark Space--but not everyone is satisfied with their governance.
AND THEY ARE KILLING EACH OTHER
Freelancer and ex-convict Ethan Ortane is on the run. He owes crime lord Alec Brondi 10,000 sols, and his ship is badly damaged. When Brondi catches up with him, he makes an offer Ethan can't refuse. Ethan must infiltrate and sabotage the Valiant, the Imperial Star Systems Fleet carrier which stands guarding the entrance of Dark Space, and then his debt will be cleared. While Ethan is still undecided about what he will do, he realizes that the Imperium has been lying and putting all of Dark Space at risk. Now Brondi's plan is starting to look like a necessary evil, but before Ethan can act on it, he discovers that the real plan was much more sinister than what he was told, and he will be lucky to escape the Valiant alive. . . .

Snatched from Earth as a child, Lara spent her formative years caged in an alien's private collection. After her captor's death, the Intergalactic Court dumped her at the Temple of the Fertility Goddess, a death sentence disguised as charity. Human women rarely survived the temple's rituals.

She never expected to leave that terrible Gomorrah in the galaxy.

But then Gael the Returner appeared with a proposition: marriage and a favor in exchange for freedom.

Now bound by their agreement, Lara must infiltrate the palace of Kamos—a powerful warlord who hoards humans for purposes darker than mere collection.

And what began as a marriage of convenience transforms into something more dangerous, love.
In a galaxy that treats her as property, Lara faces an impossible choice: trust that Gael will remain true to his word and risk her life for him and love, or remain in Kamos’s palace caged but alive.

This love story is an exploration of captivity, freedom, and desire.
