Helpful Score: 2
This story is very heavy on plot which you do not always have in erotic romance. The relationship between the two main characters is very interesting as they adjust to each others cultures. I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it.

Futuristic erotic romance from Ellora's Cave. Dr. Myrina deCarte finds herself en route to rescue colonists who are sick on a remote planet. She finds herself mated to the leader of the mission, Judan Ringa. The love story is sweet, the characters likeable, the sex scenes hot and the plot is fair. I found the scientific parts a little hard to follow. Overall, the book is better than fair.
Good read - a futuristic romance with an action plot and good characters.
The heroine is an environmental geneticist. The hero needs her to help save his people trapped on a strange planet which has suddenly become both incompatible and fatal to leave. The efforts required to save the people trapped on the planet added a nice sense of urgency to the plot.
The author did a good job with the h/h's confusion about each other's cultures, something that is frequently neglected in futuristics. [Think about the range of 'appropriate' behaviors and courting customs here on Earth - and we're all the same species!]
Her world building was unique, her hero was more than adequately hunky with amazing hair, and the plot was interesting with a satisfying resolution. Robie Madison has gone onto my wish list...
