Product Description
Keira, warrior-queen of the galaxy, is as famous for her beauty as she is for avoiding marriage. But when an upstart little planet called Earth threatens her world with its fleet of spaceships, the fate of her people lies in her hands. She must bind herself to a barbarian from the rogue world—or face the destruction of her own!
She's what he never knew he always wanted—
Confirmed bachelor Jared Jasper knows that the trick Earth pulls on the alien invaders isn't a permanent solution. What they need is a peace treaty. It just never occurs to him that he will wind up on the bargaining table. Playing the pushover groom to a mouthy alien babe who knows how to use a plasma sword is not exactly his idea of fun. But with six billion people depending on him, he doesn't have much choice—sleep with the enemy...or bring on interstellar war.
Strange bedfellows? You bet.
But this alliance may turn into a romance the likes of which this galaxy's never seen!

From Booklist
Cocky, confirmed bachelor Jared Jasper's impulsive decision to explore the REEF's crash-landed spaceship leads to a surprising offer from the invading Coalition Forces: his immediate marriage to the Goddess Queen Keira, which will bestow protected status on Earth. Unable to refuse with the fate of the world hanging in the balance, Jared manfully decides to make the best of his situation and slowly, cautiously woos his skittish new wife with all the charm and skill at his command. Galactic intrigue and snappy dialogue, combined with an intriguing subplot featuring the previously introduced, now-disarmed bio-enhanced assassin in Your Planet or Mine? (2006), the first in Grant's lighthearted space-opera trilogy, make this another galactic adventure not to be missed. Lynne Welch
