Sarah Anders is a Scorcher. She specializes in burning plague victims to make worlds habitable again. When her ship is captured and her body sold to slavers she knows it is just a matter of time before the Alliance comes for her. She had never imagined that she would be sold as a breeder, or that her new mate would be a man she could respect. Athon Kellan is a creature of mixed blood. His Dhemon appearance is at odds with his Azon mating drive, but together they make him one hell of a fighter.
If these first 2 books are representative of the series, this series is a lot sexier than Tales of the Citadel. Still, it was a fun read. I kept imagining the Princess Leia slave-girl look when Sarah was given her slave-girl attire.
