He wanted his job back.

He didn’t expect to fall in love.

Allysha Marten wants one thing: out.

One final contract, and she can walk away from the debts—and the betrayal—that have defined her life for too long. As a systems engineer, she expects routine work on a remote mining operation.

Instead, she finds secrets.

The deeper she digs, the clearer it becomes: the project isn’t what it claims to be. And whatever is really happening could shatter the fragile peace between species across the galaxy.

The man she finds herself trusting isn’t who he claims to be.

Chaka Saahren was once an admiral—decorated, respected… and blamed for an atrocity he didn’t commit. Now he’s undercover, hunting the truth behind a growing threat. He can’t afford to be recognised. He definitely can’t afford to fall for Allysha. But he does.

There’s just one problem.

She already hates the man he really is.

Years ago, a planetary bombardment killed her father. Saahren was there, in command. And as far as Allysha is concerned, that makes him responsible.

Forced into an uneasy alliance, they uncover a conspiracy far larger than either of them expected—one that could ignite interspecies war. He needs her trust and she gives it.

Until the truth comes out.

When she learns her lover is Admiral Chaka Saahren, everything between them changes.

Because the truth about what happened on the day her father died depends on who is telling the story. And Allysha isn’t ready to hear his version.

A slow-burn sci-fi romance filled with tension, secrets, and high-stakes danger.

For readers who love:

• enemies-to-lovers tension

• hidden identities and devastating reveals

• morally complex heroes

• heroines with real emotional stakes

She already chose him.

Now she has to decide if she can believe him.
