Verdana - Nadine Little

Her name is Godkiller. But what if she's been killing the wrong gods?

Axelle of the first generation born on Verdana is the perfect soldier. Loyal. Deadly. Compliant. She protects her little corner of humanity against the indigenous intent on wiping them out.

Until she's captured by Zorian. A Verdanian warrior. An enemy. Leaving him alive and agreeing to spy on her own people is treason. But he proves the Elders have lied to her.

And there's never only one lie.

The deeper Axelle goes, the more she questions everything she's been taught. Can she betray her race and be more than a killer? Can she resist the forbidden attraction between her and Zorian? Because if their species can't find a way to live together, one side won't live at all.

And humanity is on the losing side.

If you like alien romance, the colonisation of new worlds and a badass heroine who commands troops, you'll love Verdana. Read the first book in the science fiction romance series Verdana and learn that the thing to fear most is not in the jungle-it's a lot closer to home.

This book is written in British English and contains violence (including physical and psychological torture, mutilation of a secondary character and an attempted rape) plus steamy scenes.
