Claiming Kasmiri

To be a Harvester is to exist with pain that should be pleasure and desire bound by duty. Until one who can spark a change meets his perfect mate. Now he needs only to convince her—one shattering climax at a time…

Harvester Sterlave of Gant knows his mission: initiate all the virgins of the season and choose a bondmate from among them. The one he selects is perfect, both physically and politically—she is, after all, the daughter of the empress.

However, Kasmiri has other ideas. She wanted to be chosen by Sterlave's best friend, Chur, who instead rebelled by selecting a mere servant girl! Kasmiri knows she now must submit to Sterlave—although she doesn't have to like it.

Kasmiri soon realizes she more than likes Sterlave's sensual attentions. A man like no other, Sterlave is a warrior who satisfies her deepest physical needs, even as he strives to win her heart, but will they stand together or allow a dark force to destroy their relationship and demolish the empire?
