Claimed by Noatak

He's dying. She's defiant. Can love rewrite their fate?

Marlis has a sixth sense for danger, a keen aim with her pistol... and a dream-crushing brain injury. Disqualified from the military, she signs up as a guard on an alien spaceship alongside a towering, bearded alien who has her thinking about polishing more than just the barrel of her gun…

Noatak, grappling with the scars of his past, faces a grim reality: his ionic powers are waning, and the ship's doctor has given him a death sentence within a standard cycle. When Marlis, a captivating and determined soldier, joins the crew, she ignites a forbidden longing in him. But succumbing to this desire would come with a fatal cost — taking a mate means certain death.

As their connection deepens, they are drawn into a vortex of passion and peril, thrown toward a precipice from which there’s no return. Will surrendering to their hearts mean the end of their journey, or the beginning of a new destiny?
