Dread Lord Delgen thinks I'm his space order bride, a rich Earthen socialite whose credits will save his people. Only I'm not-I'm the imposter sent to kill him. Which should be easy, since he's a scary bloodsucking warrior hiding the truth about my sister's death. It's not easy to keep my distance-the matebond has taken us both. My will is wavering, but if I tell him the truth, will he kill me or let me go? Even worse, will he keep me...
