Description
As a gifted psychokinetic healer, Adena Thornwood's skills are in constant demand. She's built a solid reputation for her willingness to make sacrifices at any cost. But when she's betrayed by members of her own family, she may finally be broken. Regaining control will be near impossible with her heart in shambles. Suppressing the rebellion on Crucible should have been just another mission for Commander Nic Vistuv and the men of his garrison unit. But lies and misinformation plague their mission from the beginning. Ghosts from the past haunt them, threatening his life and those of his brothers-in-arms. The only way out of their predicament may lie in the form of a bribe, but this bribe is different. It's wrapped in the body of a young healer, whom is battle-scarred and broken by a deep betrayal. As secrets unravel and enemies draw nearer, Adena may be the key to understanding the truth of Crucible. Can a wounded healer and an embittered soldier come to trust each other in time to forge a second chance for both?
