Hunger's Harmattan (WindVerse #6)

Hunger's Harmattan Charlotte Boyett-Compo "WindVerse" Amazeen warrioress Lieutenant Colonel Shanee Iphito has been awarded the coveted rank of Primary Riezell Guardian. She accordingly has been sent by the New Coalition of Planets to Theristes, one of the homeworlds of the infamous Reapers. She is in search of Ailyn Harmattan, the duke of Kentsington, the rightful heir to the Harmattan fortune, who has been missing since the War began. For almost twenty years Ailyn had been held captive on Riezell-Nine, a maximum-security medical facility where atrocious experiments were carried out upon the prisoners. Now a Reaper-a shape-shifting vampire who must consume blood in order to survive-Ailyn has hidden himself away on Theristes, unwilling to return to his home, unable to face his family and the obligations he knows are his. In the steamy jungles of Theristes, Shanee will find the love she has unknowingly sought all her life and Ailyn will find the true mate of his heart. Together they must combine their strengths and knowledge to help defeat an evil greater than the blossoming love that has grown between them. Come back to the world of the Reapers where nothing is ever what it seems.
