β¦ Synopsis
An intolerable order. A desperate charade. A deadly secret.... Before Commander Torek Renaar can return to active duty, heβs ordered to purchase an animal companion to help relieve his PTSD symptoms. But having been a caretaker for and lost a loved one, keeping even one little human alive is a challenge he feels doomed to fail. It doesnβt help that his animal companion is the newest, most exotic breed on the market, demanding constant attention, daily grooming, and delicate handling. If she doesnβt die first in his incompetent care, sheβll be the death of him.
After witnessing the murder of her domestication specialist, Delaney McCormick allows her new owner to treat her like the pet he believes her to be. If anyone suspects sheβs more intelligent than a golden retriever, her murder would be next. She endures the humiliation of being washed, the tediousness of being trained to βsitβ and βcome,β and the intrigue of hearing private conversations. But in Torekβs care, she finds something unexpected on this antarctic planet, something she never had in all her years on Earth while house-hopping between foster families: a home.
As companionship grows to love, must Delaney continue the charade, acting like an animal and hiding from the murderer waiting on her misstep? Or can she trust Torek with her secrets, even if the truth threatens everything he holds dearβand both their lives?
