Secrets are revealed; questions must be answered, as two lovers caught in a maelstrom of opposing loyalties face their toughest fights yet.For five years, Earth ruled Hathe, taking what they needed, especially the energy-rich mineral, urgonium, it must have to survive. For five years, the Hathians kept their world safe by hiding behind a façade, posing as subservient peasants and pretending all the wealth and knowledge of Hathe has vanished. Then came the time for Hathe to fight back, and for the Terrans to learn how wrong they were. Now the war is over.Hamon Radcliff was once head of security for the Terran forces. His wife, Marthe an Castre, belonged to the Hathian resistance. Surviving the peace was always going to be tough for lovers caught on opposite sides. Both did whatever was needed to protect their home worlds, and those actions have consequences. The end of the war doesn't take away all the anger and bitterness still lingering on both sides, and when it turns its glare on Marthe and Hamon, peace time becomes downright dangerous.About the Author: Mary Brock Jones lives in New Zealand, but loves nothing more than to escape into the other worlds in her head, to write science fiction and historical romances. Sedate office worker by day; frantic scribbler by night. Her parents introduced her to libraries and gave her a farm to play on, where trees became rocket ships and rocky outcrops were ancient fortresses. She grew up writing, filling pages of notebooks and filling her head with stories, but took a number of detours on the pathway to her dream job. Four grown sons, more than one house renovated and various jobs later, her wish came true.
