Synopsis (Goodreads):

For years I kept my desire for her hidden. Until now.
Lashe
Piloting Ambassador Anna Abel’s transport shuttle from earth to my home, the living Destran space station, has been my assignment for five earth years. My orders are clear—operate the transport and leave her alone. When the shuttle is damaged, I’m forced to crash land on an uncharted moon. Now, we’re stranded on a storm-ridden planet with no chance of rescue. I may not be able to hide my desire in such close proximity, but I will find a way to keep her alive.

He’s quiet, strong and untouchable. Until now.
Anna
Being earth’s ambassador to the Destran people is a dream job, but terrible for relationships. Once again, I’m alone for the holidays, so when I’m invited to spend them on Destra, I accept. Lashe, my attractive transport pilot, is competent, polite, and has barely spoken to me in the five years he’s been ferrying me to and from the Destran station. When he admits to having secret feelings for me, our attraction blooms. But none of it matters if we can’t repair our ship and get out of here before a storm tears the ship (and us) to space dust.

Thoughts on Lashe: Lashe has the strong silent thing locked down so hard that Anna has no idea what he could be to her. Which is a shame because she and Lashe are gooooood together. But before they can be good, they have find themselves in a perilous situation with a low chance for survival.

Not that Lashe is going to let anything happen to Anna. Not only is she probably his mate, but she's also doing important work as the ambassador to his people. In his mind, her ambassadorship is more important than his feelings, so he keeps his distance. Until that distance gets obliterated and the truth comes out.

On Anna's end, she's locked down her feelings because Lashe has never shown even a hint that he might be interested. Let's just say that they both have a lot to deal with when THINGS HAPPEN.

A dangerous situation, a trap the duo can't avoid, a whole lot of suppressed feelings (that surge to the forefront), a male who denies himself for the good of his people, and a lady who finds the perfect someone for her right under her nose. GOOD STUFF!
