Romance Suspense

As the daughter of the tyrannical Supreme Leader of the Imperial 'Verses, Carina knows how to wear a mask; how to show only those emotions and expressions that will keep her safe. As her father's power grows and his insanity deepens, he cements the loyalty of a man who can provide him with weapons of senseless slaughter by betrothing him to Carina. Her father hopes to imprison her with the man's twisted desires and dark appetites. Though Carina would bear much for the safety of her people, she has no choice but to escape to the Federation, carrying vital knowledge of the new weaponry, to keep her father from destroying more worlds.

Daniel Haws is part of the Phantom Corps, an assassin sent to eliminate those who have betrayed the federation and to accomplish missions that may require the ultimate sacrifice. His newest assignment is to bring a pampered princess, and the information she carries, to the Federation. To do so, he must enter the heart of the enemy's territory, endangering his own life and the lives of those who are fighting behind the lines to bring an end to the madness.

As Carina begins the first leg of the dangerous journey, she vows never to hide behind false words or a mask again. She comes to trust in Daniel's strength to keep her safe. More importantly, she begins to trust him with her heart. Daniel is kept off balance by the Carina's artless honesty and her freely-shared attraction to him. He fights to do his job as the impartial weapon he has become, knowing only that he wants this woman more than he has wanted anything since gaining his family's safety.

Book three of the Phantom Corp series, INSATIABLE provides tension and violence leavened with humor, and flaming hot sexual encounters. Dane has another winner here, bringing readers into a future universe while keeping the story grounded with passion and danger.

SUMMARY

Desire is the most dangerous sensation of all.

With tensions between the Federation and Imperial `Verses rising, one woman may hold the key to victory. The dangerous mission to smuggle her out of Imperial Territory falls to Daniel Haws and his team, the ultra secret Phantom Corps. This elite squad of the Federation Military is the only one trusted and skilled enough to remove her from under the watchful eye of her father, the Supreme Commander of the Imperial `Verses.

Carina is used to wearing a mask. Her father and his men think her little more than a pretty prize to be won by a man more ruthless than the rest. When he announces his intention to marry her to one of his henchmen, a man known for his cruelty, Carina knows she has to move as soon as possible to get out. But getting secret information to the Federation has served her well for years and she appeals to them for help.

She expected rescue from a man who'd been her enemy. But she wasn't prepared for just how intense her attraction to Daniel Haws would be. Born as adversaries into different ranks, and on the run for their lives, they now need each other to survive-by holding on to the only thing they have in common: a growing desire that is dangerous, irresistible, and insatiable...
