She's a criminal who always flies solo. He's the intergalactic lawman who breaks the rules to steal her heart.

Smuggler Keela Wren has a problem.

There’s a bounty on her head big enough to attract the attention of every mercenary and privateer in the sector, and even her allies can’t be trusted anymore. When a lead on her missing sister forces her out of hiding, bounty hunters converge, plunging Keela into a desperate battle for her freedom.

Intelligence agent Jarrix Tov’ok is just surviving.

His latest undercover assignment aboard a pirate ship is disrupted when the captain sets aside their planned raid to go after a lucrative bounty on a female smuggler. The moment he encounters their target, Jarrix realizes the fierce human warrior is his true mate, forcing him to betray his crew and his mission to get her off the space station alive.

Keela has no use for a mate, even one as well-trained and apparently devoted as Jarrix. The sooner she can be rid of this absurdly attractive male, the sooner she can get back to tracking down her sister.

But Jarrix is equally determined to use their temporary alliance to prove he’s the ideal mate for a woman who’s fought too long and too hard to compromise on anything—especially command of her ship, her destiny, and her heart.

Tropes include fated mates, he falls first, hurt/comfort, size difference, touch her and RIP, and touch HIM and RIP.
This alien monster romance will appeal to readers of Hattie Jacks, January Bell, and Ursa Dax.
