"A space princess on the run and a notorious outlaw soldier become unlikely allies in this imaginative, sexy space opera adventure. When her father arranges for her to wed a noble from House Rockhurst, a man she neither wants nor loves, Ada seizes control of her own destiny. The spirited princess flees before the betrothal ceremony and disappears among the stars. Ada eluded her father's forces for two years, but now her luck has run out. Thrown into a prison cell with Marcus Loch, who is rumored to have killed his entire chain of comman during the Fornax Rebellion, the ship carrying them to Earth is attacked by her father's enemies. Her only hope is to strike a deal with the dangerous fugitive: a fortune if he helps her escape. But when you make a deal with an irresistibly attractive Devil, you may lose more than you bargained for..."--Publisher.
