The Huntmaster by Natasha Wingfield:
 
When exobiologist Lyra crash-lands on the unforgiving planet of Xylos-Vra, survival becomes her only priority. The towering forests are alive, the wildlife is deadly, and the native Oru-ka view her as an omen sent from the stars. Stranded light-years from Earth, she expects fear, isolation, and a desperate fight to stay alive.
 
What she doesn't expect is Kaelen-Thul.

Feared across the canopy as the Hunt Master of the Oru-ka, Kaelen is a warrior bound by tradition, duty, and instincts that have never once failed him. The arrival of a fragile human should mean nothing to him—yet from the moment he lays eyes on her, something ancient stirs within his blood.
 
A truth older than memory.
 
Mine.
 
As their worlds begin to intertwine, Lyra finds herself drawn to a place that feels more like home than the one she left behind. But the deeper their bond grows, the more the shadows of the past begin to awaken.
 
Ancient secrets sleep beneath the roots of the First Nest. Old enemies stir in the darkness. And a destiny written long before either of them were born threatens everything they hold dear.
Because some bonds cannot be broken.
 
And some hunts were never meant to end in surrender, but in claiming.
