A diplomat captured as a spy and a sultry songstress flee their enemies on an outlawed planet in this action-packed science fiction romance. Disguised as a trader, Lord Rolf Cam'brii travels to the slave planet Souk on a secret mission to establish contact with the resistance. But when his ship crashes during an ion storm, he's captured and thrown into a forced labor camp. Here he catches the eye of the beautiful female overseer, Ilyssa. Ilyssa possesses the gift of siren song with the power to drive men mad, but no one realizes she's a prisoner, too. Her parents are being held hostage by an overlord who uses her to control his enemies. Until Rolf's arrival, she's had no hope of escape. But now with his help, she could rescue her parents and leave the planet, if she can convince him to trust her. Although Rolf doubts Ilyssa's story, he accepts her proposal. They flee the labor camp and embark on a dangerous cross-country journey to freedom. Along the way, their attraction to each other grows. However, Ilyssa's gift comes with a price, and to succumb to passion means losing her gift of song. Dare she risk everything for love?
