Plot Summary of The Warrior Within - Terrilian Series 1
"Terril the telepath is sent to work for Tammad the barbarian to help solidify his support on the barbarian council. But what Terril didn't count on was becoming Tammad's love slave. She tries it, doesn't like it, later comes to like it, and then he rejects her. Doesn't that just bite?"
Steve, Resident Scholar

"In the far distant future a government mediator and empath is forced to take on an assignment with a warrior king from another planet. She must mediate a negotiation by posing as a native woman. She is banded to the warrior king and is forced to please him, both in the furs, and without, or face the punishment of his wrath."
Christinna C, Resident Scholar
