Fantasy | Paranormal | Romance Paranormal

Azsla, a First Raman, has been training for years to infiltrate the planet Zor and retrieve intel that will destroy the rebellion slaves who murdered her beloved parents years ago. Her training consists of becoming a weapons specialist and the difficult task of controlling her power of persuasion. Her mission is in trouble when her ship malfunctions and she's put in a deep-space sleep before being rescued by a handsome asteroid salt miner. Intersolar mining entrepreneur Derrek Archer is extremely suspicious when he finds traces of a tranquilizer in Azsla's blood work, which is used by Firsts to hide their abilities. As a former rebellion slave, the idea of a First being on his ship is unacceptable, yet Derrek is extremely and uncontrollably drawn to the beautiful stranger. Unfortunately, Azsla's arrival in Zor's solar system brings not only the enemy, but unwanted feelings, as well. SOLAR HEAT is a hot, sexy sci-fi fantasy that takes your breath away. Susan Kearney has once again created a world of words that you can't put down until the last page is read.

SUMMARY

When Intersolar Mining entrepreneur Derrek Archer rescues Azsla from her emergency sleeping pod, he’s confounded by his desire for her. A desire so irresistible, Derrek wonders if he’s been drugged… or worse.

Is she better off with him or without him?

Azsla’s attracted to the sexy asteroid miner, but she fears getting close to Derrek might compromise her mission--and reveal that she’s an enemy spy. Her facade hides a complex and powerful woman, capable of enslaving Derrek and destroying everything he holds dear.

With a cataclysm of deadly proportions looming, Derrek and Azsla must overcome their distrust, suspicion and opposing loyalties. But while uniting forces might save a planet, working together might tear them apart or bring them together. Forever.
