Starborn (Lightning Strike Book 2)

Tina Santis Pulivok left Earth behind to be with Althor, an empathic starfighter pilot from hundreds of years in the future who helped her understand her unusual ability to absorb others' moods. Althor belongs to a rare race of psions whose abilities are essential to humanity's survival, making him valuable to three interstellar civilizations. Althor's enemies sabotaged his starfighter, but he unexpectedly returned. Now he and Tina face betrayals from multiple sides and become targets of a merciless enemy who uses pain as a weapon. This enemy seeks to destroy the emerging alliance between Althor's people and Earth. This novel completes the interstellar adventure that began with Earthborn.
