Something or someone is siphoning off energy from the Milky Way and beyond. Rosik, Commander of the Miramid, from the Province of Gattonia has been sent to identify the source of the power drain and destroy it before it creates a tear in the fabric of the universe. What he finds is a combination of seductress and fiery woman. Cherry Dare's degree in space engineering gives her a chance to work on a space station. She is thrilled to be a part of the team that will ultimately create a halo surrounding Earth-to save it from all threats-present and future. When a drop-dead-handsome man breaks into one of the labs, she immediately knows he's a threat-to her heart and peace of mind. Once the gloves come off, Rosik and Cherry are plunged into a ballistic web of treachery, deceit, and death. A pheromone collision waiting to happen-an all consuming love that no man-made halo can contain and no man or beast can tear asunder.
