Ruin by Stacy Jones

In a galaxy ruled by the ruthless, where the line between hero and villain is blurred, Lira’s only hope for freedom lies in the most unlikely of hands…
Those of a killer.
A corrupt, crime-ridden spaceport in the Outer Rims is the last place Ruin expects to see a human female. And damn sure not on the end of a Mogovian slaver’s leash.
Despite the instant pull he feels toward her and as much as he despises slavery, he isn’t there to play hero. He’s been hired for a job—to assassinate some high-ranking executive in the Onyx Corp.
Yet, one look into those haunted green eyes, and he knows there’s no going back.
He’s gonna free her, consequences be damned.

For the last seven years, Lira has been a slave, a pet. Stripped of her memories, she doesn’t know who she is or where she came from. But one look at the monstrous Lurian sitting in the shadows and she knows he’s her one chance at escape.
What she doesn’t realize is that the information she unwittingly holds could be the key to Ruin’s mission—and make her the target of a deadly conspiracy.
On the run through the spaceport’s dark underworld, their bond ignites into something neither of them saw coming—something raw, fierce, and unbreakable.
But with an intergalactic corporation hunting them and a galaxy’s worth of secrets threatening to tear them apart, survival is anything but certain.
