When intersolar mining boss Derrek Archer rescues a beautiful stranger named Azsla from her emergency sleeping pod, the desire between them flares to dangerous heights. Azsla, a member of the ruling elite, has powers that can save Derrek's planet from an approaching asteroid, but if she reveals those powers, he'll learn that she's not only a spy, but also a slave mistress capable of controlling him and destroying everything he holds dear. Mastering the hot-blooded miner seems impossible as sexual conquest becomes a battle neither of them can win. If they and the planet are to survive, they'll have to rely on one another, trust one another, because love may not be enough.
