A flashback to a Europa encounter that would change Bernadette's life
Her sex had turned slick at his perusal. The longer he looked, the wetter she grew. She could feel it between her thighs where they met her womanhood.
Doljen leaned close as if to kiss her. She turned her head to avoid it. He whispered in her ear. “What’s that I smell, lady? Where is that delicious scent coming from? Shall I search for its source?”
Smell? What smell? What was he talking about?
Still holding her wrists captive in a manacle hand, his face drifted lower. When his mouth drew level with her breasts, the nipples jutting shamefully, she screwed her eyes shut. It was then that she became aware of his breath, warm against her skin. It wafted over her chest, then moved lower…at her sternum, her upper stomach…her navel…
Her eyes flew wide. He was going lower, right to her…
“No!” Her knee shot up, aiming for his nose.
Doljen caught her leg, arresting it before it could make contact. He held it in place despite her struggles. He went no lower, but the angle of his head told Bernadette he was looking there. With her leg flung upward, she was exposed to his stare.
His deep inhale seemed to echo in the room. “That’s where the delicious scent is coming from.” His gaze tracked up her body. “It’s you, Bernadette. It’s the smell of your arousal.”

She searched for the man she couldn’t forget and found a shattered clan she couldn’t resist.
Captain Bernadette Miller was a nun on the moon Europa, hiding from a painful past. Now she hunts the galaxy for the Kalquorian who made her stop running from herself. When she gets a lead on his clanmates, she thinks her search is finally over. What she finds, however, is a clan devastated by broken promises.
Nobek Halmiko was once a star kurble player. Now he wanders space aimlessly, picking up jobs where he can find them, trying to forget the clanmates he let down. When Bernadette shows up asking questions about his missing Imdiko, he has nothing to say. But some women get in a man’s head. Some women don’t take no for an answer.
Dramok Tumsa had it all: a career he loved, the perfect clan, a troubled but talented brother he’d do anything for. Tragedy on the kurble field destroyed it all. Now his estranged Nobek is back, with a beautiful, hardnosed Earther captain who offers him an opportunity to make amends. Can he piece his clan together again? Does he deserve the chance?
Imdiko Doljen is wracked by guilt. He’s hidden from those he let down…including a woman he couldn’t keep. When she shows up in the company of his clanmates, old hurts ignite anew. It doesn’t matter what he wants; he can’t fix the mistakes he made.
The only path to regaining the love Bernadette lost means healing this shattered clan. Is she ready to commit to three men instead of the one she came for? When disaster strikes, she has to call on all the strength she possesses to stop them from falling apart for good.
