What it’s about: (from Goodreads)  On the run from her former employer, Tess knows that she’s vulnerable on her own amongst the Elder Races.

While his true nature frightens Tess, she can’t ignore the appeal of his innate sense of integrity and self-restraint. Thrown into Xavier’s world, Tess must quickly learn to navigate the dangers—both to her life and to her heart. But the biggest threat comes from her own past…
