Revenge may kill her...but love may kill them all. Prince to a dying planet, Lye the Keeper has made a deal with the devil. For the price of his blood, the Drianti Syndicate offer a seat on their council...and put the end to their decade-long occupation of his planet within his grasp. Working with the Syndicate feels like betraying everything he's worked for these last ten years, but it pales in comparison to the pain of his monthly mating imperative.
The red-haired temptress who lands in his path holds the key to Lye's freedom--and an end to his pain--but the price is too high. Touching her would defile the royal line that ends with him. The lure to possess her, however, proves irresistible.
Privateer Jazzelina Eval will do anything to bring down the Syndicate, anything from robbing spaceships to kidnapping a prince. Anything but settle down and give up the revenge game. Or bed a mark who's made a deal with her enemy. But once she has Lye in her hands, she can't let him go...even if the price of keeping him is war.

A fairly decent read with interesting characters and steamy sex scenes. What I found most interesting though was that there was a bit of a role reversal in the main male and female characters. The female character Jazz being both physically and sexually more aggressive than the male character Lye as well as much more emotionally shut off. On the whole an entertaining read.

I'd actually give this one a 4.5 for a really engaging plot and a well built world. There were a few things i'd have liked to see more of, such as the planet and it's people, but overall i really liked this story.
