This is book 2 in the Made for Two series.

When Lieutenant Velvet Meadows loses most of her comrades in battle, part of her withdraws to protect her heart from future loss. Because she's an Adept — a race that adapts to changes in their environment — she does a damn efficient job of it. Velvet's emotions are in lockdown.

It doesn't help when Lieutenant Graham Hamm goes to Velvet's room, determined to humble the proud little hellcat in front of his friends. But when Gray falls for the beautiful Adept, he ends up hurting no one more than himself. Now Velvet's shields are up where Gray is concerned. Only through her trust for another man will her love be resurrected.

Lieutenant Jed Castille can see that Velvet needs help. He knows that he and Gray must work together to unearth Velvet's deeply buried emotions. Unfortunately, Graham and Jed are longtime rivals.

Together the trio embarks upon a dangerous mission to eliminate a Spaceforce enemy, while the two rivals pit their desires against Velvet's resistance. By the time victory is theirs, the three officers will have made an unlikely alliance…in the bedroom and in love.
