Toran Unbound - Unbound, #7

Toran Bladewielder's life was upended when a battle injury forced him to leave his order -- the Holy Defenders of the Gods. It is upended again when he catches a thief pilfering food from the warehouse he is guarding. Although the miscreant turns out to be a beautiful woman, his duty is to hand her over to the authorities. But when he discovers she is a slave who escaped from a ship in the harbor, his sense of right and wrong urges him to hide her. Desperate to maintain her freedom, Farah will do anything escape the clutches of her cruel master -- even seduce a man whose sexual innocence and moral decency are clear to her. But as she angles to keep Toran on her side, their relationship heats up.
Neither expected to ever find love, yet the intensity between them builds -- until Lord Camari's men find Farah and drag her back to him for punishment. Can Toran rescue her, and is there any way for these unlikely lovers to forge a lasting relationship?
