Star Kissed
New release by Lizzy Ford
When Mandy loses her
job, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom – until her plane is swallowed by a
strange storm that sends her and everyone else on board 10,000 years
into the future. At first, she thinks the scary world is nothing more
than a bad dream. The war-torn Earth is unrecognizable. Black fog blocks
the sun, and the oceans are dry. Even worse: the planet is inhabited by
half-human, half-alien creatures dying from a mysterious disease.
Horrified at the thought of spending her life here, she clings to the
knowledge that there’s one man who can open the star gate to send her
home.
As the Naki prince who controls the star gate, Akkadi gets first choice of any human female that makes her way through the star gate. Only by breeding with purebred humans from the past can his race hope to remain immune to the disease and hopefully, develop an eventual cure. With shrinking resources and a raging battle for the human planet, dutiful, commanding Akkadi is less than thrilled at the idea of trying to figure out Mandy, a woman he views as wild with neither discipline nor respect for someone in his position.
He’s ready to write her off, when she offers him something too tempting to resist: her body for the chance to convince him by any means possible to send her home. Neither intends for the arrangement to be permanent or to fall for the other. Only when Mandy learns Akkadi’s secret and walks away does he realize he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her – even if it means losing his war.
