He defied his destiny. She awakened his heart. Now they must fight for their future.

Jo'Nay, an Intergalactic Warrior bound by duty, is approaching his final flight -- a genetically engineered death at 400 years old. Emotionless and unyielding, he has spent centuries as a protector of the Nine Galaxies, his life dictated by a rigid code that forbids love, family, and rebellion.

Everything changes when he meets Winn, a spirited and compassionate human whose very presence stirs something long dormant in him. She awakens his heart in ways he never thought possible, and their connection becomes a love so powerful it shakes the foundations of his existence.

But their romance is forbidden, and a twist of fate -- a single bite of a forbidden Earth apple -- grants Jo'Nay a second chance at life and a future he thought he could never have. As their passion grows, so does the danger, and they uncover a devastating secret: the Vettian government has been manipulating Intergalactic Warriors for centuries, controlling their lives and suppressing their true potential.

Now, Jo'Nay and Winn must risk everything to fight for their lives -- as well as the life of their unborn child. Their bond will spark a rebellion that could change the course of the Nine Galaxies forever.

First is a breathtaking science fiction romance that blends forbidden passion, thrilling action, and a love powerful enough to to overcome even the most formidable obstacles. For readers who crave fiery love stories with heart-pounding stakes.
