This is one of those books where you know the Hero feels he is doing what's right but he is just serving himself.  Tess is captured by exotics for a fighting pit and what she witnesses just keeps going on and on in her mind.  Until she is left with The Shadow or Vere as he is really known as.  Vere means well when he clears her mind of the horrors of the killing and torture during her capture but then he uses his ability to make her want him sexually.  To me that is a rape of the mind.  Sarah who is the Terran Champion who owns the planet of Admar, is also a Reader and sees his deception.  Although he might have saved her from death and the fighting pits, he now has to redeem himself and Tess is gonna give him a run for his money.  I liked Tess and her character for she was a strong woman but Vere took a while to get to like.  Seeing Sarah and the other Terran on Admar is always nice too.  It's a nice short read, especially when one is needed.
