On an alien planet where callous, menacing soldiers rely on sex to fuel their battle rage, one human servant is about to bring their fearsome General to his knees.
With her memory scattered, Joan doesn't recall how she arrived at Zolan. She just knows that, as the sole human in her military camp, there are life-or-death rules she must follow as a servant: keep your head down, tend to your duties, and whatever you do, never look the Masters in the eye.
One fateful day, she unexpectedly runs into The General and breaks the single most important rule: she meets his icy gaze. There, she finds something that forever changes her quiet servant life: fascination.
Now, Joan has a choice: resist the General's advances and continue her life of desperate survival, or submit to their intense attraction and allow him to claim her as his. As war hangs in the balance and enemies surround her, one human woman has the chance to upend an entire alien civilization and make her own destiny.
It's hers to take, if she dares...

Zolan Series Book #1 of 5
When Anna May is kidnapped by a handsome, shapeshifting Dragon Prince, she'll have to decide if accepting him as her mate is worth never seeing her family again.
*****
After returning home from studying abroad, twenty-five-year-old Anna May is kidnapped from her South Asian village by Prince Raiden, a gorgeous shapeshifting Dragon Prince that's been appearing in her dreams. Trapped in his underwater kingdom, Raiden claims she's his mate, but Anna wants nothing to do with him -- especially since becoming his Queen means never returning home. But can she deny the way he makes her feel when he holds her against his body, or leans in to cup her cheeks, kissing her everywhere but her lips? And are those feelings worth her family, her reputation, and the risk of starting a war?
