"Royal Consortium princess Ada von Hasenberg fled home to avoid an arranged marriage to the scion of a rival house. After two years moving between space ports to avoid her father's minions, Ada is captured by mercenaries intent on collecting a vast bounty. She puts up quite a fight and is summarily thrown into a cell with Marcus Loch, the other most wanted individual in the universe. Ada is intrigued by him but learned from an early age never to trust anyone, not even family, and certainly not a rogue soldier convicted of mass murder. When her rejected suitor suddenly shows up with a warship to escort her home, Ada wonders why but knows she must escape immediately. Her best hope is to free Marcus and draw him into her plans."--Publisher's description.
