Synopsis (Goodreads):

Can Mina survive the icy cold of an alien winter? And melt the heart of the hardened alien warrior who rescues her?

Her home. Her job. In a few short months, Mina has lost everything, including hope. Freezing and alone on a winter night, she isn't sure if she will make it to the next day. Or even if it matters.

She wakes up to find herself naked and freezing, but no longer alone. An angel appears out of the snow to save her. An angel with fangs and claws, and a pain in his eyes which matches her own.

Betrayed by everyone he cares about, Myk-El retreats into a solitary life of study and discipline. When he finds himself alone on a strange planet, his only real regret is that his books did not accompany him.

Then he finds a fragile, helpless female in the snow. Experience has taught him not to trust, but he cannot resist the appeal in her big, blue eyes. As he thaws her frozen body, she begins to thaw his frozen heart.

But when the hidden forces behind their arrival on the planet make their presence known, will Mina be able to save him in return? Or will they use her to destroy him?

Thoughts on The Buff Beast: Another unknowing couple (well, not a couple YET, but the potential is there when then find themselves alone on a strange planet) is dropped naked into an unknown landscape and, well, naked is good when it comes to these aliens, I guess. They make things work. Naked. And they aren't terribly bothered by said nakedness. I mean, the human women are a little bothered by it, but the alien dudes? They're good.

So. Mina and Myk-El. He's a winged, scientifically-minded man who's dealt with love and betrayal once and has no intention of dealing with either again. She's a human woman who doesn't want to head back to earth since her circumstances there were not so great.

He's trying to ignore the growing attraction he feels for her. She's trying to figure out a way to stay on this non-earth planet. A few kisses, a little steam, a dose of danger.

Yup, I'm still digging these aliens and humans and the experiment they're sucked into against their will. *thumbs up*
