My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Human Maribel's brother died at a protest when Kiphian soldiers opened fire on the protestors. As her brother's Kipian partner had died she has done her best to care for their two children Nortin and Amara in her slum home. Ryker is a Kipian soldier who has been desperately tracking down his sister's children and has finally found them in Maribel's care. He wants to offer them a good home with food and education something she cannot deny them but she refuses to let them go without her. So she agrees to be their Nanny - something that Ryker is fine with but not so acceptable to his mother. There is an undeniable attraction between Ryker and Maribel and when he reveals that she is his fated mate she is ecstatic - right up until it becomes apparent that the sadness in his soul is due to him being one of the soldiers who shot her brother - can they get over that and have a HEA?
I enjoyed the story with the connections between them being his sister and her brother's death. Ignoring the fated mate side of things and their mutual attraction. It was also good to see how the grandmother's prejudice against humans was eventually conquered. The children were a delight and their personalities were clear and easy to detect. Easy to read and understand. Contains some mature content.
