His Reluctant Alien Wife

Sela Quinn wakes on an alien planet with an infant in her arms and no memory of the night that made her. Her physician, Vekhal, is patient, kind, and lying. He calls her his bonded mate and he says it like a diagnosis. Somewhere in his perfect Hesh records is the real story: a crash, a rescue, a bond he was not supposed to survive, and a choice the Council would have been happy to make for her. Sela is nobody's unclaimed property. When she finds the file, she takes the baby and runs. He lets her. He also follows. One alien world, two stubborn hearts, and a truth that will take an entire night to say out loud.
