About this ebook

Braden, a level-three Shareem, never thought he’d find anything interesting in a library—that is, until he spies Elisa n’Arell sitting behind a reference desk. She’s lovely, polite, and uses cute words like “shan't.”

The trouble is, the pretty librarian is a registered celibate, off-limits, forbidden, especially for the nearly outlawed Shareem. The second problem is, Braden has come into the library to research a way to get Shareem off the planet, an activity that could have him arrested and all Shareem killed. He needs the librarian’s help to access a restricted databases, but he can’t tell her why.

Elisa knows good and well that her motives for donning the robes of a celibate were less than pure. When Braden walks into her library, he takes her breath away. He tempts her to put aside her vows for a time and find out what she’s sacrificing.

Elisa asks Braden to teach her, and enters a world she’d never known existed. Too late, Elisa finds that forbidden fruit tastes the best of all . . .
