Resisting the Alien Rider

A surly alien rider, a human woman meant for someone else, and the family that was never supposed to form…



All I want is to fall in love and get married. But my romantic hopes are dashed when I find out my alien groom, Oaken, is too injured to come meet me. The only way I can get to him in the mountains is if somebody else takes me.

Enter Garrek. The biggest, grumpiest alien rider on the planet. He doesn't seem to like me much and he's got a lot on his plate caring for his convict-ward, a young boy named Killian. But he grudgingly agrees to let me tag along as they travel towards the mountains with their herd.

The journey is dangerous and my guide is surly. But the longer I spend with Garrek, the more I uncover the rough tenderness that looms just beneath his hard exterior. He's ferociously protective of Killian…

And of me.

But while every night of quiet fireside moments and stolen looks draws me closer to Garrek, every day of travel pushes me closer to the man I'm actually supposed to marry.

I have to resist this growing attraction.

Because if I don't…

I'll fall hopelessly in love with the wrong rider.

Ursa got her MA in Creative Writing from the University of Toronto in 2017 and has been writing novels ever since. She lives in Canada with her ever-supportive husband, their daughter, and their two cats.
