Publisher's summary

Dagger is a Trivator warrior. He is known for his dark and dangerous edge, making him the perfect warrior for impossible missions. He fears nothing, until he meets a young, delicate human female who wakens his heart. Her gentle touch, soft voice, and her shy sense of humor touch him in a way he never thought could happen. The thought of anything harming something so beautiful and fragile fills him with terror.

Jordan Sampson is slowly adjusting to her new life on a strange planet far away from war-torn Earth. She had been 17 when she was brought to the Trivator's home world of Rathon along with her older sister, Jesse, and younger sister, Taylor, a couple years earlier. Fear, confusion, and uncertainty of what the future holds threaten to drown her as she tries to fit in. There is only one hope that keeps her going. It is the handsome alien male that stirs something deep inside her and makes her feel whole.

When Dagger is captured during a mission and sold to the illegal fight rings, it is only the memory of Jordan that keeps him going. Time blurs as he slowly sinks deeper and deeper into a world of violence and pain until he becomes more animal than Trivator.

Jordan knows Dagger is out there, somewhere. She can feel him in her heart. The heart she gave to him the first time he held her protectively in his arms.

When she discovers where he is being held, she refuses to let anything stop her from rescuing him. What Jordan doesn't realize is that she has been Dagger's hope during his captivity. The one thing that holds the thin thread to his sanity.

The fight to save Dagger takes Jordan on a journey that she hopes they both survive. The star system is a dangerous place for a young human female and a damaged Trivator warrior. Can Jordan reach Dagger in time, and if she does, can she heal his shattered soul?

Loved it!

I really like Daggar, and his tenacity and will to survive, in a very brutal environment had me cheering for him.
Jordan's diced determination to find him, when others though him dead, was the driving force of this book. There was a terrible Bad guy, you wanted to kill and was glad when he got what was coming to him.
great story!

AWESOME LOVE STORY

I loved the bravery of the women in this series. I especially loved how the younger ones bloomed and fought for their Amate'! The fight scenes in the fighting ring was vivid and well told. loved it!!!

Oh my beautiful Dagger

I really enjoy this book and narration. Dagger stole my heart, this tortured man. Jordan in her own way is bad ass and never hesitated on her love for him. love love loved it

Great!

It was as great as I expected! S.E. Smith doesn't disappoint. All her books are wonderful!

Dagger's Hope. great to the end of story

if I could I would give the story a 6. the narrator did a great job

Fierce Determination

Jordan and her sister's all have one thing in common, and that's their fierce determination to protect the ones they love. As Jordan knows I'm her heart that Dagger still lives, Dagger continues to have the strength to fight by using his memories of Jordan. Both of these characters have suffered a lot to get their HEA, and this book is packed full of action right up to the end. I honestly cannot wait to listen to Taylor and Sabers story next. The narrative is outstanding as he makes the story come to life.

Didn't mind the flashbacks.

I actually enjoyed the story. It was different from the others. However, some didn't like the flashbacks. I thought it was better to do this than to start the entire beginning over again with it just being a different point of view. They fit.

AMAZING

Loved loved loved it! Tons of action and romance. Good follow on to the first book, loved hearing things from the first book from a different angle.

Love

I love this and all the rest of the series of these books. Great read.

So happy they found each other!

I grabbed this book knowing there are others before it, however, I'm not missing any piece of the plot. I think this could be read as a standalone; as the author does a great job of covering the past without it taking from the main story.

The narrator was great for the story and brought the characters life.
I will be getting the other parts in the series to see what the others went through to find each.
I recommend this book!
