Viper

Viper is the first novel in the Second Wave series by author Mikayla Lane[. The Second Wave primarily focuses on the [[Tezarian]], Zendarian, Prime, and Dranovian alien races, while the First Wave is primarily about Valendrans and Relians. Characters from each series crossover and appear in the books from both series.

Summary
As one of the first to arrive and assist the Valendrans on Earth, Viper fle’ te’ Trugh thought he was prepared for the mission he undertook. He was terribly wrong. When he is caught by a rogue band of Relians and suffers a concussion that prevents his ability to communicate on the shengari’, his hopes for rescue or escape dwindle.

Lara Blain was an Iraq veteran with a bad case of PTSD and even worse luck. She didn’t expect to rescue the strange-eyed man who set her emotions on edge when she stumbled upon a group of strangers interrupting the peace and quiet of her mountains.

On the run and looking for his people, Lara is confident that she can keep the man alive. That is, until the dark ones are sent to recapture them. It will take every skill she’s ever learned to stay alive as she fights an enemy she can’t see and feelings for a man she thinks she doesn’t know.
