[The Dark Marauder's Mate 01] • Unwilling Partners

Darajhe doesn’t want to join with a man for protection. As a Shaunessey healer, she’s hunted for her unique skills and only a warrior can keep her safe. She’s independent and wants to choose her own path rather than submitting to another, but it is the way of her people and her body demands the union. When her sister gets into trouble, Darajhe knows she has no choice but to turn to a warrior for help.

Ro was created to protect Shaunessey healers, but he doesn’t trust them. He joined with a healer once before who tried to destroy him. Now he’s leery and hardened. He believes his brokenness will prevent him from a new union. Yet when he encounters Darajhe, he can’t resist the urge to become her mate. He tells himself it is only biology driving him, but Darajhe’s seductive sweetness reaches a need deep inside his soul.

With Darajhe’s promise of a separation ceremony, Ro reluctantly agrees to help – as long as she doesn’t get too close. Together, they work as healer and warrior to save her sister from harm. Ro sees Darajhe is different and honorable but he still doesn’t trust her enough to touch his heart. And the more Darajhe learns of her warrior mate, the more she realizes he needs her. It would be a simple matter to heal his soul with one touch of her hand. He ignites a fire within her body whenever he’s near. Can she ignite a newfound trust within him before it’s too late?
