What’s worse than being abducted by aliens? Being forced to choose one as a mate.
Life hasn’t been easy for seventeen-year-old Cammie, and it doesn’t grow any easier when her car dies, leaving her stranded. Instead of waiting for help to find her, she decides to finish the walk home. Only she never makes it as she’s abducted by aliens and wakes up in their spaceship, coming face to face with Kilani, the Captain.
One thing becomes clear right away: the captain has no intention of returning her to Earth even though her abduction was an “accident.” He’s too interested in her “Mate” classification and what she can provide his dying race, but Cammie begins to suspect his feelings for her are deeper than he is willing to admit.
Can they find a way to save Kilani’s race while navigating their own fragile relationship?
Genre: Children's Fiction
