Publisher Description
Curvy schoolteacher Lexi is desperate—her uncle owes her uncle owes twenty thousand dollars to a ruthless loan shark, and time to pay up is running out. To save him, she accepts a risky position with Dr. Brandt, a brilliant but brooding Beast Kindred scientist aboard the Mother Ship. But Brandt's research isn't ordinary, and Lexi soon discovers she's not just an assistant—she's the only female with the rare biology to produce a life‑saving substance he needs to cure a deadly disease.
Whisked away to a distant alien world, Lexi finds herself caught between duty and desire. Brandt is stern, secretive, and bound by a vow never to take another bride after his wife's death. Yet his protective intensity and commanding presence stir feelings she never expected.
As danger closes in and their connection deepens, Lexi must decide if she's Brandt's prisoner, his partner in discovery…or the one woman who could tame the Beast. Will Dr. Brandt resist the forbidden temptation she represents—or break every promise he's ever made to claim her heart?

Best in a while
I’ve read Anderson books for a long time and I don’t know but this one for me was pretty good.
Don’t read the following as it may give away the story but… at the end they never like have a reconciliation convo about his vow to never take another wife. Like he on his own decides it’s okay. Yet he never has that convo with her?!? After that vow is an important thing… it just suddenly isn’t? Maybe I missed that part.
Also true to their society I kept thinking he would apologize at the end for stealing her. For being ruthless with her. And he never apologized at all.
Still beyond that…. Excellent book from someone who’s read most of the authors work.
