He abducted her from Earth while undercover. She pretended to know the traitor under his command. But nothing is as it seems...least of all their feelings for one another.
Melody Johnson infunde nueva vida a los cuentos clásicos de vampiros, explorando la compleja interacción entre el bien y el mal tanto en la naturaleza humana como en la inhumana. Sus vampiros, al igual que sus personajes humanos, ocupan un espacio único dentro de la zona gris moral, creando desafíos inesperados para sus heroínas. Johnson empuja constantemente los límites del género, introduciendo conceptos originales como la sangre nocturna para la transformación y temibles formas diurnas que dan un toque fresco a sus historias. Más allá de navegar por lo oscuro sobrenatural, cruza géneros, combinando sus elementos con romance de ciencia ficción para explorar lo que realmente significan el hogar y la familia.


He abducted her from Earth while undercover. She pretended to know the traitor under his command. But nothing is as it seems...least of all their feelings for one another.
An intolerable order. A desperate charade. A deadly secret. Before Commander Torek Renaar can return to active duty, he’s 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 doesn’t help that his animal companion is the newest, most exotic breed on the market, demanding constant attention, daily grooming, and delicate handling. If she doesn’t die first in his incompetent care, she’ll 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 she’s more intelligent than a golden retriever, her murder would be next. She endures the humiliation of being washed, the tediousness of being trained to “sit” and “come,” and the intrigue of hearing private conversations. But in Torek’s 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 dear—and both their lives?
