Kiera, a wild she-falcon on the planet Elterra, is shot down by an army patrol that suspects she was involved in recent violent attacks on rural villages. Imprisoned and collared like the wild animal they believe her to be, she is given one chance for survival: submit to the legendary falconer Jared Stone, whose scarred face and gruff disposition speak of his own mysterious past.
Jared Stone has spent the past five years trying to get himself killed in deep space. He'd left Elterra in disgrace, following the tragic failure of his union with his first falcon, Serena. Now he's been asked to return to his home planet, to try to do what no falconer has done before: to train a wild falcon as his bonded mate.
As the attacks escalate and the government threatens to rip them apart, Jared knows that the only way he can protect his wild falcon is to gain her trust and her submission. Can Kiera give up her dreams of returning to the wild, to belong to the man she can no longer bear to live without?
