Lita has always accepted her world's strict order, until her grandmother arranges for her to be impregnated by Adonis, the temple's most sought-after breeder. What begins as duty transforms into an intoxicating obsession when Lita discovers the golden-haired man's gentle touch and burning passion.
But the temple holds dark secrets. Men aren't the pampered treasures Lita was taught to believe, and when Adonis reveals the brutal truth, Lita faces an impossible choice, accept the life laid out for her, or risk everything for the man who awakened desires she never knew existed.
A steamy sci-fi dystopian romance featuring forbidden love and a heroine who defies an oppressive matriarchal society. Adult erotic fiction (18+) with intense passion, rebellion, and dark secrets hidden beneath a seemingly perfect world.
