Robin Stevens never thought that her ordinary life would change in an instant.  But when a large barbarian warrior from the planet Malka burst through her bedroom and carries her off to his world, her whole life changes forever. 

Niro, the son of the Dascon clan leader Hakan, falls instantly in love with the little female that he was sent to collect.  The females on his home planet are few in numbers due to a strange illness that wiped out half of them, still more were lost to the battles that continue to rage between the Dascon and Larmat clans.  Though the earth women look as though they might be able to become mates for the strongest of Barbarian warriors, Hakan orders that only two would be taken, to make sure they could adjust to Malka.

Niro claims the right to be Robin's protector. Robin has no idea that by doing this Niro has proclaimed his love for her and his intentions of wanting to be her mate.  The strong-willed Robin must learn to fit into the seemingly male dominated society of Malka.  But together Robin and Niro find a love that will joined them forever.
