Blink Scrapwire will soon inherit a business empire—but only if her family doesn't realize her father is already dead.

Inheritance law among the Dwalli is complicated, which is why Blink has kept her father's demise a secret for years. The plan is to lay low, to manage the black market and used parts trade from her home base and pretend her father is continuously off negotiating various business deals. It's a plan that's worked for years...until now.

When Kye Cutterbolt and his brother walk into her parts shop, Blink finds herself wanting to do more than just lay low. A lucrative off-planet business deal throws Kye and Blink together and sparks fly, but getting close to the other Dwalli puts Blink's future at risk. Will Kye discover her secret and betray her? Can Blink do the unthinkable and trust her heart?
