Talia is a Rosabelle, a woman used only for pleasure by any man capable, but she's different from the others. Talia is strictly the property of her planet's council members. No other man may touch her.

Ryder is a colonel in the Belton army and a man way to accustomed to taking liberties. The fool even bedded one of his subordinates. So not a good first impression did he make as he took Talia prisoner for the information she might be holding about a future attack on his home planet. The guy's a bastard.

Unfortunately, he's *very* good at it and I couldn't get enough!

As a side story, there's Ryder's sister Krystal who's ready to relinquish her virginity to her boyfriend, Trevon. Now there's a guy you can easily loathe. Then there's Dillon, Ryder's second, who's been in love with her for years. When he finally gets the courage to ask for Ryder's blessing to woo Krystal, by the means he sees fit no less, I was salivating in anticipation. Dillon was yummy.

I received this book from a Bradford Bunch giveaway.
