Liam and Talon are both warriors but from different planet. Both far descendant from Earthian, they share common genes, but not the same customs. Talon is from Kury, a planet whose people are proud and fierce, and always in control; they have a strict code of honor, and they will kill themself to not break it. Kury's warriors are also extremely handsome, lean and lethal, similar to Native American warriors; when they meet their mates, they release pheromones to imprint the female and make her desires the warrior. Female... not male! When Talon realizes that he desires Liam, the only right thing to do is to commit an honorable suicide.

Liam is a friendly and open big man. Jovial and always ready to a joke, he has a perennial smile on his face. He can admit without problem that Talon is an handsome man, only a blind wouldn't notice that, but Liam is a woman's man... or not? When faced with the perspective to lose his new-found fellow fly-fighter, Liam decides to do anything to prevent it... anything!

This is not a long book, less than 90 pages, but it's very funny. Usually a futuristic novel involving planet wars and aliens is strange, interesting, but not funny! Liam and Talon's story reminds me a bit Top Gun... who has not imagined that Iceman would be a better match (in bed of course!) for Maverick, rather than that insignificant woman? And so Liam and Talon play at wargames and in the bedroom with the same strenght and attitude: Talon all honor and duty, stick to tradition and hierarchy, and instead Liam is always ready to rebel and to make a risky move that in the end gain him the victory. So with Talon, Liam will risk and win.

Again a rather light and easy book, surely not a serious "futuristic" novel. Don't search for detailed description of new-worlds, but if you want a quite charming romp between the sheets... well try it.
