The Alien’s Human Mechanic

Résumé du livre

When down-on-her-luck mechanic Mara Chen accepts a mysterious royal contract, she thinks she’s won the jackpot—fifty thousand credits for thirty days of ship repair. But her new client isn’t just anyone. He’s Prince Vexar Th’azrix—Drakosian warrior, second heir to an alien throne, and the most intimidating male in the galaxy.

He expected a master engineer.

He got a stubborn, grease-stained human who talks back.

When Mara boards his warship, the Shadowfang, she discovers more than broken machinery—the ship has been sabotaged, and the next hyperspace jump could tear them apart. Trapped in deep space with no communications, a killer lurking in the systems, and thirty days of forced proximity, the two must rely on each other to survive.

Vexar’s icy control is melting under Mara’s fierce competence and impossible warmth. She’s everything he was taught to avoid: emotional, impulsive… human. Yet every sarcastic remark and lingering glance chips away at the walls he built after betrayal left him alone and unbonded.

For Mara, fixing ships is easy. Fixing a guarded alien prince—and her own heart—isn’t.

Every system she repairs uncovers new secrets. Every brush of his scaled hand threatens to ignite a bond neither of them can afford.

Someone aboard wants the prince dead.

And the closer Mara and Vexar grow, the more dangerous—and undeniable—their connection becomes.

When the final sabotage strikes, one choice will decide everything:

Save the mission… or risk it all for love.
