About the book: year / As the captain of the only all-female team of bounty hunters in the galaxy, Danica believed that she was ready for anything. But I didn’t expect to meet him. Stranded on a sand planet, injured and separated from her crew, Captain Danica Miller is not having the best day. When she is rescued from the desert by a huge, golden-skinned alien, she doesn't know whether to be happy or worried. Not only does he look like a barbarian - and barely dressed at that - but he is also able to read her thoughts. Even worse? She can feel his presence. And he seems to think she belongs to him. The last thing K'alvek wants is for a weak creature to distract him from his mission, even if he feels attracted to her. Then why couldn't he resist saving the stubborn woman and vowing to help her and her crew leave the planet? Especially if he really wants to drag her into his tent and never let her go. This stand-alone action-packed love story features a daring, all-female team of bounty hunters, ravishing barbarian warriors from a sand planet, thrilling battles and steamy scenes in an exotic desert oasis. If you like passionate alien warriors, strong women, and romance with happy endings, you'll love A Bountiful Gift, the first book in Tana Stone's science fiction novel Warriors of the Sand Planet.
