My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Human Nancy has been a slave in an alien mine for a year and has refused to give up, so when she gets a chance she escapes. She never realised how hard it was going to be to survive on her own but when a strange new alien that is part man and part snake finds her she fears the worst - however he actually makes her feel safe for the first time since she was abducted. Prince Kaiyo was banished from his home planet and has found a place for himself in the dangerous underworld of Kalima and can usually solve any problem, however, he seems unable to fix his own. When had discovers the fierce and frightened Nancy his long-forgotten instincts demand that he protect her no matter what she thinks. The longer he spends with her the more he never wants to let her go. Kaiyo’s past is about to catch up with him. He has no intention of releasing his claim on Nancy - but will she be able to handle all of his secrets? And will his people ever accept a human?
I enjoyed this story with the feisty Nancy and the determined Kaiyo. It was interesting to see how the politics of his homeworld came to play out and how Nancy's presence meant that the various parties in the politics came to the fore and gave themselves away. I loved the various twists in the story and it was great to see another human female find her HEA with a high ranking male alien. Contains some mature content.
