Melina is a captain of a battle cruiser in the Alliance military and the destined mate (the author calls this gemate)to Wulf. Wulf is the captain of a battle cruiser in the Prime military and Melina's mate(gemat for the male version). They of course meet and have an instant bond which Melina struggles against while they fight off several alien enemies and a home grown rebel force.I am not a professional writer by any means but I think my summary was more interesting then the whole book. It started out decent and then became the story of Melina constantly fighting and putting herself at risk which resulted in her getting hurt and then Wulf would show up after the fact to growl and rage and fuss over her....it was stupid. In one scene Melina is bleeding profusely, she can barely move, and a traitor shows himself in a room full of able bodied Prime warriors, but it's Melina who has to get up and fight the guy! All the warriors stand and watch, including Wulf, I was laughing it was so ridiculous. This was the theme throughout the book and the sci-fi elements came off as spouted nonsense. Here I can do it too, we are entering Helium Prime with four battle cruisers on our tail bearing 3.2 light years.......seriously!The author can put together a semi-decent sentence all though she would get names mixed up sometimes and you would have to stop to make sure who she was referring to, but the plot and storyline were awful after a third of the way through. The main steamy scene was forgettable, the whole book came off boring and corny. I struggled to finish, checking repeatedly how much longer I had to go till I was done.I got this book for free otherwise I would have been mad that I wasted my money and not just my time. Don't waste yours!
