Rowena Lee lost the man she was supposed to marry, and with him, any hope for a happy future in the war. Now, five years later, with a suspicious kind of peace brokered between the sides, Rowena lives a half-life in emotional isolation. Neither her former enemies nor her crew have any use for her, and her only joy comes from her new job training cadets--something made difficult lately by Commander Silar's constant, irritating presence. If he got out of her way for just
three seconds
, she could actually
do
her job.
Commander Hollis Silar came out of the war a hero, the golden boy who could do no wrong. Romance came easily too: easy come, and easy go. But Rowena? Challenging. Like trying to flirt with a rock. Especially since shouldn't associate with her in the first place.
As politics heat up on Malik IV and factions begin to draw battle lines, an unknown enemy forces Rowena and Hollis into an uneasy partnership. Love is a battlefield, and on Malik IV, war is in the air.
A sensual enemies-to-lovers romance for everyone who believes in the power of one strong woman to change the world.
