Shielder Jenna dan Aron's visions have always been accurate, so she resigns herself to her destiny to mate with Arion of Saura, a leader of a race of people rumored to be little more than barbarians. As she tries to adjust to the strange, hostile ways of his people, she begins to wonder if, for the first time, her visions have led her astray. Arion has his own concerns about bringing a fragile human into his world. But he needs her to help his kind survive. In the dangerous days ahead, each learns there is more to the other than meets the eye, and their bond will be their greatest strength. In this twist on Beauty and the Beast, Spangler imagines a well-drawn futuristic world. Although some plot points are a bit too convenient, readers will barely notice as Jenna and Arion tug at their heartstrings. This is the fifth book in a series: Shielder (1999), Shadower (2000), Shamara (2001), and Shadow Crossing (2003). Nina Davis
