β¦ Synopsis
Alone on a strange planet, forced to call a mateβ¦ Janeth Dewellin, a powerful empath, is on the planet Dragnath to find her missing brother. Her search is interrupted when she abruptly enters a second puberty and must quickly find a mate, or risk losing herself to madness. Alone and far from her people, her only hope is to βcallβ for a mate. Empathic investigator Tom KβRestan follows a strange broadcast to see if this is the source of the negative empathic energy he is investigating. He finds Janeth, and an explosive attraction to her he cannot understandβand cannot resist. Running out of time and options, Janeth secretly mates with Tom and uses their intense sexual energy as a beacon to call to her missing brother. Love will have to come later, if she can overcome Tomβs dismay and convince him they are destined to be forever lovers. But the dark entity is still on the loose, one that feeds insatiably on their energy, threatening not only their fragile relationship, but their very survival. Warning, this title contains hot, explicit sex.
