D'zia's Dilemma (An Alien Exchange Trilogy, #2)

Guardians of the Galaxy meets The Princess Bride.
The second book in the trilogy, D'zia's Dilemma features a disembodied galactic gangster, a snarky spybot, and a sentient, lovesick spaceship. If you like non-stop action, powerful emotions, and sensual aliens, you'll love the next installment of An Alien Exchange.
A woman betrayed. An alien duke faced with an impossible decision. Can two lovers who long to be together overcome those determined to keep them apart?
Lora Dharma Callahan excitedly agrees to leave Earth to attend "The Exchange" and meet the alien mate of her dreams. Instead of finding true love, she's forcibly kidnapped and held captive by an alien lunatic who plans to take over the galaxy. He's going to use her to create a serum that will ultimately enslave every human female on Earth. But no emperor wannabe is going to keep this girl down. Lora will find a way to save not only herself, but her planet as well.
Duke D'zia Yaq E'etu, cousin to the crown prince of Zerin, suspects a malicious plot to overthrow the galactic government. When the opportunity arises to insinuate himself in the suspected traitor's stronghold, he doesn't hesitate to use his infiltration skills. While there, he encounters Lora, whom he soon recognizes as his TrueBond. The only problem…she's imprisoned and scheduled for experiments that will destroy her.
Now D'zia has a hard choice to make. Should he stay and get the proof he needs to prevent a narcissistic megalomaniac from taking over the galactic government…or escape with the only female he can claim as his own?
