MM Alien Romance · Meridian Lock
The Warmest Room
He flagged the seal twice. Then it gave way, and the only thing warm enough to save him was the Kethri who cut him out.
Cargo inspector Emiliano Quiroga files everything and chases nothing. After eleven years on Meridian Lock he has worked four meters from the Kethri every week and never touched one, until Durran, the seven-foot-four crew chief of the hull engineers, carries him out of a frozen hold in his own wrap.
The clinic prescribes heat. Durran offers the warmest room on the station: his own quarters, a bed-shelf heaped with felt, a palm between Emiliano's shoulders every night, and one condition. Emiliano can walk back to his cabin any day he likes.
Then, over breakfast, Durran says he wants him. He'll wait until Emiliano is well and asks.
But the inquiry into the seal failure blames the inspector, his flags are missing from the record, and Durran is called to give evidence. To keep both their careers, Emiliano will have to stop saying the polite thing and say the true one, in public.
A tender, very hot open-door MM alien romance about hurt, comfort and four hearts, with a bond-rite and a guaranteed HEA.
Perfect for fans of Everina Maxwell and Ruby Dixon.
