The Empath — Keri Kruspe

Alien Legacy: The Empath is the first installment in a SciFi Romance series that mixes steamy romance, action, adventure, and psychic suspense to explore the mysteries of alien romance and the human heart. An alien empath who long ago closed himself off. A lonely woman, unaware of her vital role in preventing an upcoming alien invasion. Thrown together by chance, can they overcome their mistrust to save us all? Just his luck, alien-human hybrid Ben finds he's the only one for the job since it's his alien kindred that is preparing to destroy Earth's economy prior to invasion. If successful, humanity will be ripe for a destructive occupation. Only he has the empathic powers to uncover a key ally needed to thwart the alien's insidious plan to destroy the world. When he meets the intriguing Julienne, he's alarmed at their instant attraction. He struggles between the delectable woman or concentrating on finding the person he came for. Too bad the fate of billions doesn't leave room for anything personal. Julienne suffers a stressful professional life that doesn't leave room for anything else. To make matters worse, an arrogant, hotter-than-hell, aloof outside consultant has the nerve to butt in her business where he's not needed or wanted. After stumbling on an insidious global scheme where she works, Julienne ends up kidnapped by one of her hateful bosses. Unless she confesses what she's found, fretting about a demanding professional life will be the least of her worries. And what if she isn't who (or what) she thinks she is? Now it's a race against time. Can an overwhelmed woman and an alien-human empath conquer their mistrust and not only work together, but discover their love is the key to mankind's salvation?
