Ghan-Zahr by Bella Blair

I came for vengeance, but fate guided me to the one female I can’t live without…

Rachel: I’m an investigative reporter, not a damsel in distress. So when I’m kidnapped by an alien warrior—one who’s as dangerous as he is captivating—it’s hard to wrap my head around. One moment, I’m ready to interview Dr. Weidenhof about the wormhole that connects Earth to Vandruk. The next, I’m taken by Ghan-Zahr, a powerful Vandruk khadahr who came to Earth on a deadly mission: revenge.
I should despise him. He’s torn me from everything I know—my career, my family, my world. But Ghan-Zahr isn’t the ruthless monster I expected. As we travel across the wild, untamed lands of Vandruk, something unexpected happens. I start to understand his pain, his loss… and worse, I start to feel something for him. More than fear, more than fascination—it’s something deep, something dangerous.
As I start falling for him harder every day, one question tortures me: how can I sacrifice my life on Earth—my family—for a future with Ghan-Zahr? Is love enough to make me abandon everything I’ve ever known?

Ghan-Zahr: I came to Earth for vengeance. The humans destroyed my people with their wormhole, and I’ve sworn to make them pay. Dr. Weidenhof was my target. But then I saw her—Rachel. She wasn’t supposed to be part of the mission, yet I couldn’t leave her behind. She’s mine.
She’s nothing like the other humans. She’s fierce, intelligent, and maddeningly stubborn. As we journey across Vandruk, I feel the bond between us growing. She’s my mate. But I can’t force her to stay with me. Especially when I know she’s torn between her world and mine.
My people plan to destroy the wormhole, cutting off all contact between our worlds. But that also means Rachel will have to choose between her family, her life and Vandruk and us. How can I ask her to stay with me when I know the cost?
Yet, losing her is not something I can bear.

The wormhole will be destroyed. Time is running out. Can I fight for Rachel? Will she choose me—before we’re separated forever? Or will the destruction of the portal destroy us, too?
