Part of New Species, book 8
First published 2012
Dr. Allison Baker has exhausted every medical option to revive the unconscious New Species male known only as 880. Desperate to save him, she breaks protocol and kidnaps him from the facility. Her plan defies all rules: use her scent and touch to stimulate his senses back to consciousness. She climbs into bed beside him, wrapping her body around his still form. When 880 finally awakens, he finds a small human female pressed against him. He stays motionless, analyzing each caress while fighting his body's response to her proximity. Rage consumes him when he realizes she's human, the same species that destroyed his life through the Mercile corporation. He decides to claim her as compensation for everything they stole from him. But his initial desire for revenge transforms into something deeper. Taking the name Obsidian to reflect his dark nature, he becomes determined to keep Alli by his side. He will battle anyone who tries to separate them.
