Stranded in the sand. Marked by fate. Claimed by fire.

Jas

One second, I was hunting down ghost stories in the Sahara. The next, I’m waking up on a blistering alien desert with two suns, one survival bunker, and a grumpy catman who keeps calling me kassari.
Fated. Mate. His.

Commander Rhaekar is seven feet of pure “don’t touch that” energy—except when he’s touching me. And when we share a dream? I see what he’s holding back.

Possession. Heat. A slow, burning hunger that says I’m his from now until the stars burn out.

I should want to get home. But the longer I’m in his arms, the more I start to think…maybe fate knew exactly what it was doing.

Rhaekar

She fell through a rift and landed in my wasteland.
She is loud. Human. Reckless. Everything I do not need.
And yet—she’s mine.
My mate. The one fate has chosen for me.

But this desert hides more than heat. Buried beneath the sands is something I was sent to guard—ancient tech with a mind of its own.

Now it targets her.

But I was forged in fire. And I will bury every threat beneath these dunes before I let the universe take my mate.

Deserted is a high-heat, standalone sci-fi romance featuring fated mates, desert survival, one mat-shared sleeping arrangement, and a grumpy alien who learns to worship the Earth girl who claimed him.
