Synopsis (Goodreads):
She’ll do anything to free her sister and save the Earth from invasion, even if she’s blackmailed into stealing sacred alien artifacts…and becomes the prey of the dark, deadly warrior sent to hunt her down.

Special Forces Space Marine Lara Traynor wants to save her sister and her planet from annihilation by the deadly insectoid Kantos. Earth’s Space Corps give her one option: steal three gems sacred to the Eon Warriors. Lara has never failed a mission and she doesn’t plan to start now. What she doesn’t expect is the big, hard-bodied warrior the Eon sent to stop her.

Security Commander Caze Vann-Jad was born and raised to be the best Eon warrior in the empire. Honed by the military academy, his years as a stealth agent, and by his hard warrior father, he has never failed. He knows one weak, inferior Terran is no match for him. But when he finds himself face to face with the tough, skilled Lara, he realizes he’s underestimated the female warrior.

When they are attacked by a Kantos kill squad, it soon becomes clear that the Kantos are planning something far darker and dangerous. Caze and Lara are forced to change their dangerous battle of wits and skill into a fierce battle for survival. Neither of these fighters believe in love, but on the trail of a stolen gem, they will ignite an unstoppable desire, and discover that not only are their lives at stake, but their hearts as well.
Thoughts on Touch of Eon: The second of the Traynor sisters sent out to save the planet by harrowing the VERY PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO SAVE THEM is up and she's met her match in Caze. Or maybe he met his match in her. Either way, these two spar and spark and it's really no surprise that they'd end up being perfect for one another what with all the heat between them.

But before we get to them, I'd just like to point out that the higher ups who thought it would be a good idea to antagonize a race of beings who have the ability to take on the bad guys coming for Earth DO NOT HAVE GOOD DIPLOMACY SKILLS. I mean, really. Just because their hair-brained scheme happened to work out in a way that's ultimately beneficial to the people of Earth does not mean it was a good idea in the first place.

But let's not talk about them and what I hope the higher-ups have coming to them. Let's talk about Caze and Lara. They're both crazy driven and competitive and unwilling to back off in the face of overwhelming odds. Which pretty much makes them meant for one another simply because they're so perfectly matched.

They fight. They generate some heat. They go after the bad guys. And, MAN, are they fun. I love some good banter in between trying to beat the crud out of one another.

Wren's story is up next and yessssss. I am ready.
