Probed

Probed

G. M. Marks

Lucy has been abducted from her bed and subjected to dreadful extraterrestrial instruments that explore and molest her most delicate regions.

She knows nothing but fear—for the alien scientist with the shielded face and long white hair, and his little grey “helpers” with their disturbingly inquisitive fingers. Stranded in the vast emptiness of space, she has nowhere to run and no one to trust... least of all the enigmatic alien studying her.

But beneath the face shield is someone Lucy never expected.

Beautiful, intelligent and dangerously sensual, he is far more than his sterile laboratory suggests. And as fear gives way to fascination—and fascination to something neither of them can resist—scientist and subject begin an experiment of an entirely different kind.

With hearts and bodies firmly intertwined, they may discover more about their two species than any probe ever could.

With enemies closing in and trust in short supply, survival means risk, sacrifice, and facing a temptation neither of them is prepared for. In a storm of danger, will passion save them—or destroy them?
