Defeat the Darkness

the long version

Hard-eyed and hard-bodied, Hunter Fitzsimon isn't what Tate Justice expected in a tenant for the apartment above her garage. Terse and intensely private, Hunter's mission is to protect a narrow stretch of the barrier between Earth and Kalithia against the Paladins' ruthless enemies- a job that would be much easier without his sexy, landlady nosing around. So, when she follows Hunter into the woods late one night, he decides to teach Tate a lesson with a passionate kiss that brings her to her knees... and unexpectedly ignites red-hot desire deep in the soul. But the warrior's dark and dangerous world is no place for his fiery lover. Does possessing Tate mean turning back on his brethren... or will Hunter forsake the woman of his dreams for the harsh duty he's always known?
