Pure Desire — Carolina Barbour

Future. On planet Sanguine, Noor goes on vacation. But it ends abruptly when he's summoned to headquarters and given an urgent assignment; transport to the past to Legend, Texas. Once there, find and convince a woman he wasn't a nutcase and she was the only person who could save planet Oridus from ruin and the galaxy's nemesis. It seemed simple enough-until he meets the woman and his world is turned upside down.

Past. Instinct tells Allura Deverill to be suspicious of the man from the future. There are too many unbelievable tales, starting with his arrival in Legend in a machine that can fly. Then he would have her believe she is the sole person to save a galaxy. She doesn't believe Noor until the tragic accident that changes her life. Under distress, Allura puts her faith in a man she doesn't trust.

Present. The first encounter, Noor and Allura find their attraction is combustive as unknown feelings surface that are foreign to both of them-awakening passions that go beyond sexual gratification to deep-rooted affection that surpasses time. They forge ahead struggling with untamed emotions threatening to keep them apart, as furious as the evil they must evade.
