I will actually have to read this story several times to decide how I feel about it.  Certain aspects of alien sex were a bit...  But it's a well-written, deep tale of a man stuck on an alien planet in the service of his country and the aliens seem as civilized if not more so than the humans.  The alien race of Rownt are traders before anything but trader Ondry decides that protecting the emotionally battered soldier Liam and gaining him as a 'palteia' which might be loosely translated as a submissive, is worth any price he has to pay.I love m/m romance, especially m/m werewolf romances where the big alpha protects his little mate.  I can read basically the same story over and over, with only slight artistic changes a bazillion times and never get tired of it, but it's good that authors keep trying new ideas, pushing boundaries, as well.  This book broke a few molds. I like both styles and will just keep reading them all!  I have to buy a lot of bad books to find such a fine one as this.  Do read it.  *Cuts back on heating in winter and air conditioning in summer to buy more books...*Quote:  "Humans can die of alcohol poisoning, which is ironic considering how much we like our alcohol."
