Space Fever — Kate Donovan

He can save her planet, but only if she saves him first.

Cabrielle is glad her father never lived to see his defraction technology in the hands of the rebels. Now the only hope for her planet's survival is Torr, the Zentarin who's training Cortierra's pilots.

Except Torr is suffering from an untimely case of lust fever -- two years ahead of schedule. He must return home to mate with a Zentarin female, or die… Unless by some miracle a Cortierran female exists who might satisfy him.

Sleeping with the hunky offworlder isn't exactly the way Cabbie planned to redeem the family name, but she'll do anything to defend her home. Even use her body rather than her crack sharp-shooting skills. One feverish night later, Torr has his cure, and Cabbie finds herself lust-bonded for life. She willingly gives him her heart -- until the truth behind his motives flings it back at her in pieces.

As Torr's lust-mate, Cabbie makes an irresistible target for the rebels. When they kidnap her, intent on using her as a pawn, one thing is certain. Her frayed bond with Torr is Cortierra's only hope.
