Thieves in Paradise — Bernadette Gardner

Kol A'Kosu, an Antarean bounty hunter, is on the trail of another rim colony criminal. Gifted with visions that show him future events, he's already seen himself capturing Charity Foster, the beautiful Human selenite thief, but that's not all he's seen. His visions have never been wrong before, but this time there must be a mistake. He can't possibly take a Human as a bond mate, or worse, subject her to the painful rite of separation, the only way to dissolve the intense sexual link that draws Antarean couples together.

Charity faces certain death at the hands of the Magistrate of Valencia, but before she loses her life, she'll lose her heart to the man assigned to bring her to justice.
