Bloodflower (The Hidden Flames Artifact Book 1)

Description

Jàden’s been trapped in hypersleep for 4000 years, connected to the beating heart of a terraformed moon. Only when she wakes does her nightmare begin. The tracker who trapped her in stasis is furious she’s escaped. As his ship tracks her from the sky, her only hope is to find the man the tracker murdered before her long sleep—his son, and the love of her life.

Because one life is not the end.

The man she still loves has lived more than twenty lives without her, and Jàden’s alone in a world of mercenary soldiers with deadly blades. When Captain Jon Ayers, an exiled prison guard, defends her from an attack, Jàden seizes the chance to use him as a shield against the tracker hunting her from the sky, and the soldiers who want to siphon the power she carries from the moon’s connective threads.

But Jon is a dangerous man with a haunted past, bound by the brand on his arm to the mercenaries hunting him for the pendant he carries, a key to the gateway between worlds. The closer their enemies get, the more their path entwines, stirring a desire neither can ignore. And when her tracker finally catches up, Jàden will face the hardest choice of her life between the man she still loves, and the prison guard who carries her heart. Saving one lover will destroy the other, and the wrong choice will land her in chains she can never escape.
