Rekker by Starr Huntress

Rekker wasn’t expecting to be matched.
On the eve of being sent to retrieve a mysterious artifact, he’s sent something just as enigmatic.
A human woman, lush and curved.
His mate.
Even worse, she wants nothing to do with him.
His blood burns for her, but the need to make her happy overrides everything.
He’ll find a way to set her free, even if it means he’ll be alone. Forever.
But when danger comes from an unexpected source, they’re thrown together. And when his mate turns to him, he’ll protect her.
Keep her.
Claim her.
Lila Kanes never wanted any thing but a quiet life on her family farm. She certainly didn’t want to be claimed by a massive alien mate.
Thrown into the stars, she’ll do whatever it takes to find a way home.
Back to Earth.
Back to her family.
She couldn’t possibly want to stay with the hot, horned alien with the amazing body, who made her feel like the most precious thing in the universe, could she?
Right?
