A human and an isolated alien on an ice planet

The fourth Ice Planet Barbarians novel places Harlow in an unusual position within the small human tribe: she is drawn into a bond with Rukh, an alien who has lived apart from others and has little language or knowledge of human customs. Their relationship takes shape through communication and the challenge of learning each other’s ways, alongside the series’ science-fiction romance elements of alien mating bonds and life on an icy world. The setup brings together captivity, cultural unfamiliarity, and Harlow’s effort to understand the stranger she encounters. This paperback edition includes bonus materials and an exclusive epilogue.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For readers following the Ice Planet Barbarians series, particularly its fourth installment.
  • For readers interested in science-fiction romance involving alien-human relationships and an unfamiliar world.
  • For readers drawn to romance plots built around communication across cultural and language differences.

Book overview

The fourth novel in the international publishing phenomenon the Ice Planet Barbarians series, now in a special print edition with bonus materials and an exclusive epilogue!

Harlow receives the shock of her life when she wakes up to see Rukh, a stranger who has clearly been on his own his whole life, but she soon learns that there is much more to this gruff, barbaric alien than the savage he appears to be.


The ice planet has given me a second lease on life, so I'm thrilled to be here. Sure, there are no cheeseburgers, but I'm healthy and ready to be a productive member of the small tribe. What I didn't anticipate? That there'd be a savage stranger waiting nearby, watching me. And when he takes me captive, the unthinkable happens...I resonate to him.

Resonance means mating, and children...but I don't know if this guy's ever been around anyone before. Rukh is utterly wild. He's completely uncivilized, can't speak more than a few words and doesn't know what clothes are. A human--a human woman--is mystifying to him. He's truly a barbarian in all ways, and like Tarzan in the stories, he's kidnapped me and claimed me for his own.

Being with him means I'm going to have to teach him to speak, how to kiss, and how to be human. Or even alien. It should be a terrifying prospect...so why is it that I crave his touch and hunger for more?
