Jack Morgan’s life of crime just got more complicated. Raised by his late uncle to be a thief and con artist, Jack has always managed to stay one step ahead of trouble—until he’s accused of a crime he didn’t commit. Forced to flee, he hides out on a remote, uninhabited planet, where he hopes to lay low.
That plan shatters when a spaceship crashes nearby, carrying Draycos, a warrior from a reptilian race hunted to extinction. Draycos needs Jack’s help to survive and clear his name, but there’s a catch: to stay alive, the alien must bond with a sentient host.
Jack faces an impossible choice—team up with the strange creature or risk losing everything. Can an unlikely alliance help them both, or will it lead to even more danger?
