Consisting of two stories Wicked Lord and Carnal Empress, Crystal Jordan's steamy PRIMAL HEAT tells the story of two Kith warriors and their Ones.

U.S. Sergeant Major Bren Preston is seen as a traitor when she decides to use Lord Farid Arjun to get her an audience with Emperor Kyber to convince him to become invested in the trauma his ships caused when they began hovering above Earth. While trying to get to safety, Bren and Farid fight their passions because of their fears.

In addition, Emperor Kyber has been searching the planet for his One, but the trouble with finding a Kith's One is that the combined emotional and sensual links between Ones make them great hostages for tyrants of desperate planets.

Although short, the stories were erotically passionate and detailed, and the back stories were interesting.
