She runs from authorities across the planet Harmony until Drake Sebastian appears at her door with an unusual proposition. He needs her special abilities to locate two dangerous paranormal crystals hidden somewhere on Rainshadow Island. She needs legal protection from murder accusations. A marriage of convenience will solve both problems. Alice agrees to the arrangement and travels with Drake to the enigmatic island for their honeymoon mission. Rainshadow Island guards ancient secrets and harbors treasures that people have killed to possess for centuries. As Alice and Drake search for the deadly crystals, their partnership ignites unexpected passion. The island's volatile energy amplifies both the danger they face and the attraction growing between them. Alice discovers that her new husband brings his own dark history to their union.
