What he’s been taught to fear could be his destiny…and
his only hope. Adam Yuga, a rising young
star in the imperialist Terran Protectorate, is on the verge
of a massive promotion…until a routine physical exam reveals
something less than perfection. Genetic flaws are taboo, and
Adam soon discovers there’s a thin line between rising star
and starving outcast. Stripped of wealth and
position, stricken with a mysterious, worsening illness,
Adam resorts to stealing credits to survive. Moments from
capture by the Protectorate, help arrives in the form of
Lochlan, a brash, cocksure Bideshi fighter. Now the
Bideshi, a people long shunned by the Protectorate, are the
only ones who will offer him shelter. As Adam learns the
truth about the mysterious, nomadic people he was taught to
fear, Lochlan offers him not just shelter—but a temptation
Adam can only resist for so long. Struggling to adapt
to his new life, Adam discovers his illness hides a terrible
secret, one that the Protectorate will stop at nothing to
conceal. Time is growing short, and he must find the
strength to close a centuries-old rift, accept a new
identity—and hold on to a love that could cost him
everything. Warning: This title contains brief
scenes of explicit violence and mild but potentially
triggering homophobia.
