Fresh from the Country by Read

I am a Healer and Princess of the Aerilon people; I never thought I'd end up a slave. When I'm rescued by a fierce Mosauran warrior, I am both grateful and wary. Rowan is a Prince of the Empire, and his species is one of the most feared in the galaxy, and also an enemy of mine. But the more time we spend together, the more I find myself drawn to him in ways I don't understand. I know I can trust him with my life, but can I also trust him with my heart? The fate of both our Empires may hinge upon an alliance. But our two races have been enemies for thousands of cycles and our differences are many. Can we bring our people together to fight against a dangerous enemy?
