Single Stroke by Holly Bargo

Kidnapped and left for dead by the Sivuul, Louella Jefferson defies the odds by surviving her horrific fate. Her chance for escape presents itself when the Sivuul come under attack, but a rescue mission thwarts her hasty plans.
General Superior Yas’kihn of Ahn’hudin cannot believe his luck. He has rescued the lost human bride and is convinced she’s his perfect match. However, Louella is far from submissive; she’s fierce, brave, and unafraid to challenge him.
Louella has battled relentlessly for everything she has. Adjusting to a culture that coddles its women—offering privileges, not rights—goes against her independent nature.

Bound by his high status, Yas’kihn faces societal pressures regarding his new union, and he’s committed to not letting his people down.
Someone must compromise. A lot.
