Synopsis (Goodreads):
Ruthless alien bounty hunter Wraith has buried his past so completely that not even he remembers his original name. All that matters now is that he's the best at what he does. He lives by two ironclad rules: never break a contract and never get involved with a target.

But then he retrieves a fragile human female whose gentle spirit begins to thaw his icy exterior, and suddenly both of his rules are in danger of being broken.

When kindergarten teacher Willow is abducted by aliens and thrust into a perilous world far from Earth, she refuses to give up hope. The enigmatic alien who rescues her claims to be devoid of emotions, yet Willow glimpses the deep loneliness behind his icy facade. She's determined to help him remember the male he used to be.

When Wraith’s memories are restored, will he stay at Willow's side or will his past drive him back into his previous lonely existence?
Thoughts on Willow and the Wraith: Wraith, the mysterious bounty hunter who seems to have a code of his own, is up and he's been tasked with finding (and breaking) the smuggling ring abducting human women for nefarious purposes. Wraith is a hardcore loner, can get a champion brood on, and has no memory of life before he became what he is now. To say Willow and the others he rescued from their predicament shook up his existence is an understatement.

I mean, the guy went from being alone aboard his ship to sharing space with three other individuals. And Willow stirs things in him. Not just the usual physical things, but some serious protectiveness. All that combined sends him into a bit of a tailspin and this shakeup has him reevaluating the things he finds important.

On Willow's end, she's also had a massive shakeup. Being abducted, rescued by a pint-sized alien kiddo, and then by Wraith has her spinning. But Wraith makes her feel safe and she something in him that makes her inclined to believe he isn't the ruthless bounty hunter everyone else sees him as. So she follows her instincts and let's whatever it is they have between them develop as it may.

A little danger, some terrible abductors, found family, buried memories, a bounty hunter with secrets, and a lady who sees the heart of gold hidden underneath his stoic exterior. GOOD STUFF!
