Short, quick, fun, fated-mate, alien/human. :) That's really all you need to know. Oh, and pirates! :) I mean, that is what corsair means even though I didn't know that going in. We meet a band of pirates who sees a human woman who's been purchased by someone and they rescue her. Nice, clean, happily-ever-after. :)
