Long-buried family secrets arise to disrupt her perfect life when she awakes to find a mating mark upon her neck and her lover, turned mate, gone from her bed. Will Liona’s family let her keep her mating mark? Or will they make her have it removed when she refuses to divulge her mate's name?

However, their orders to not interfere in the timeline are put to the test when their recording bots encounter a medical emergency and alert the crew of the Midnight Angel to the urgent situation. Their great-grand ancestor, Darrol Jun, is in danger of losing not only his life, but the life of his unborn daughter, Vivian! A decision has to be made. Alter the events of the timeline and risk being court martialed by the Grand Admiral, who granted this mission, or cease to exist due to the grandfather paradox!
