Love Among the Stars (Fire & Ash Book 1)

Broken both physically and mentally, and struggling to face each day with no direction, Blake searches for a way to bring meaning to his life. He finds solace staring up at the stars, dreaming of adventures on distant worlds as a way to distract himself from the nothingness he experiences on Earth.
Vice Kalis Torran, a dovrik shifter known for his strength and honesty, is the commander of the flagship vessel in the Dolian fleet. He focuses everything on his job and protecting those he loves. But when circumstances force him to seek out a rare stone or risk being stranded in the depths of space, he is forced to travel to Earth. Little did he realize that travelling to Earth would bring him exactly what he needed, and more than he ever imagined.
Drawn together by fate, Torran’s dovrik senses his mate is close, but Torran is torn between finding the stone that will save his crew or finding the mate who just might save his soul.
