Hawk's Prey — Dawn Ryder

It's a harsh world they live in. Tova, a non-convict, is sent to live in the penal sphere with her brother and father after they are found guilty of crimes and her home destroyed. It is the only option for a homeless woman. That, or ostracization by her friends in the outer sphere.

Hawk is a Hunter, his job to guard convicts in the penal sphere. A large man, strong, with a rock-solid set of values. A casual meeting between the two sparks an attraction both fight but neither can deny.

Like every Hunter, Hawk wanted a female. But his options weren't many and all of them left him cold -- except Tova. It was a match made to torment him with the temptation of the forbidden. And for Tova, what future is there for a chaste non-convict woman who succumbs to the attraction of a Hunter, when sex is used primarily as a bartering tool?

But Fate is often unpredictable. When she strikes, it's with deadly accuracy. Logic never wins when two souls find their matches.

Reader Advisory: This tale features scenes of ménage a trois, spanking and voyeurism. Not for the faint at heart, but definitely for those who want to raise their heart rate!

Note: This story is set in the same world as Talon's Trophy, however Hawk's Prey can be read alone.
