This has less spice than their first book BUT more action, twists, and turns! It was so much fun diving back into this world! Zarrah and Keris both learn to become the best version of themselves and make difficult decisions for the good of their people. Loved seeing them grow individually and as a couple.

I picked this up because some friends reThis is only meant for people with a partner who are struggling to find a balance with home responsibilities. I picked this up because some friends recently read this before they had their baby and found it useful for dividing up responsibilities.
If you’re arguing with your spouse because of home responsibilities, this would be a good book to read. However, my husband and I don’t, and already have a good system of ‘fair play’ integrated into our lives, so I didn’t really learn much. So, I ended up skipping some sections since it wasn’t applicable....more
3 ⭐️ perfect to listen to if you want something ridiculous and funny (audiobook review)
I don’t usually do audiobooks, but overall, this was a fun book3 ⭐️ perfect to listen to if you want something ridiculous and funny (audiobook review)
I don’t usually do audiobooks, but overall, this was a fun book to listen to. It was almost like watching a dumb, high-drama TV show. The characters and the situation are ridiculous, but I enjoyed the story and the romance.
WHAT TO EXPECT: ✨ billionaire romance ✨ pretty woman retelling (she's not a prostitute just unemployed) ✨ dual POV ✨ instant attraction ✨ contracted fake engagement and pregnancy ✨ resisting each other to lovers ✨ age gap ✨ forced proximity ✨ smut
As I already said, I enjoyed the overall story. I'm a fan of the billionaire and fake dating, or in this case fake engagement, romance. The story kept me entertained while I listened during my workouts and walks.

Out of all the women abducted, Vanessa is the on5 ⭐️ Screw choosing Theo, I'd choose Fejo ❤️
"I love you, and I'm never letting you go."
Summary:
Out of all the women abducted, Vanessa is the only one who hasn't accepted her situation. She can't. Because she has a family back home on Earth who needs her. And nothing will stop her from getting back to them, even if it means marrying (and betraying) a sexy space pirate to do it.
Fejo wants nothing more than to have a wife to cherish, but his come-and-go lifestyle as the captain of a merchant spaceship makes him an undesirable choice for Clecanian females. So when the gorgeous human Vanessa chooses him as her husband, Fejo is ecstatic. He doesn't know how he got so lucky, but he will do everything in his power to keep her. Unfortunately, his sharp-tongued bride is reluctant to accept his kindness - and pleasure - making him wonder why she chose him in the first place.
Vanessa’s plan was simple. Until she started falling for her ridiculously charming husband. Now, she has to figure out how to get home without breaking Fejo’s heart—or her own.
My Thoughts:
I think this may be my favorite story in the series! I need to reread Saving Verakko to see which wins the spot for my #1!
I felt so many things while reading this story. My heart ached for Fejo and Vanessa’s insecurities and past. I laughed so many times because of their stubbornness, the banter, and Fejo’s ridiculous humor. My pussy throbbed throughout the entire story because of the smoldering sexual tension and many explosive sex scenes. And I felt so much adrenaline during the end fight scenes.
I've seriously fallen in love with Fejo and adore Vanessa. Because of their past traumas, they both feel unworthy of love and struggle with vulnerability. But they decide to take a chance on each other. After some misunderstandings/truths are revealed, they start to see each other for who they truly are underneath the persona they offer the world - Fejo with his pomp and bravado and Vanessa with her rough, bitchy demeanor. It’s a beautiful, comical, sexy story about two people who take a chance on love.
This is the spiciest book so far! Loads of incredible tension and many sex scenes. We even get some 69 action, and he calls her 'his good female.' ...more
After surviving for weeks in an alien plant forest with fellow abduction survivor Lily, they 4 ⭐️ Another fun, sexy story in this series!
Summary:
After surviving for weeks in an alien plant forest with fellow abduction survivor Lily, they get separated and Alex suffers a terrible head wound. And things only get worse when a monster tries to kill her. But at the last minute, the most intense, grumpy, and insanely tempting man she's ever seen saves her. But sadly, that's just when everything gets even more complicated.
Auzed is ordered to find the missing humans and deliver them to Tremanta, the other human females currently residing. After trespassing in Sauven territory, Auzed finds Alex being attacked by a sefa, a creature sacred to the Sauven people. Forced to kill the beast to save the human, Alex and Auzed are placed into the custody of Sauven. To protect Auzed from getting in trouble, and to protect Alex from being forced to marry a Sauven stranger, they pretend to be intended for marriage.
Their relationship was supposed to be fake, but the more time they spend together, Auzed and Alex start to wonder if maybe things could actually be real. However, Alex is determined to go back to Earth and Auzed's job prevents him from marriage. Is it possible for these two star-crossed opposites to have their happily ever after?
My Thoughts:
Alex and Auzed took so freaking long to get together and even longer to admit their feelings, but it was all worth it!
I really loved the world-building and the continued development of the human women’s storyline on Clecania!
Also, huge fan of the fact that Alex is a movie critic, so we got loads of movie references.
4.5 ⭐️ This one is my absolute favorite so far in the series! I love Lily and Verakko!!!!
Summary:
When Lily is suddenly freed from an alien prison/4.5 ⭐️ This one is my absolute favorite so far in the series! I love Lily and Verakko!!!!
Summary:
When Lily is suddenly freed from an alien prison/lab, she refuses to wait for rescuers in case they are just as bad as her last captors. Along with another human named Alex, Lily takes her chances in the alien forest. Luckily, she grew up with survivalist parents, but navigating the exotic terrain isn't easy. Things become even more challenging when Lily and Alex get separated and a wounded alien falls from the sky into her camp. He's rude, grumpy, and sexy as hell. But can she trust him?
Verakko was supposed to liberate the kidnapped humans, then return home to fulfill his obligations. But instead, he gets wounded during the attack and ends up in the middle of the forest face to face with the most intriguing female he's ever met. He decides to help her find her friend and then they'll go their separate ways. But his plan changes when he begins to suspect that Lily is his mate.
Lily doesn't trust easily. Verakko has secrets that threaten to ruin their relationship before it even begins. If these two want their happily ever after, they'll have to fight more than the dangers in the forest to get it.
My Thoughts:
I am obsessed. Seriously, adore this story! Amazing banter, lost in the wilderness trope, and top-notch alien spice.
Lily is a badass and so hilarious! Verakko is a big ball of love. Together they are formidable and sparks fly! The pacing of this story was perfect. I also love how these two grow as individuals and as a couple.
I’m obsessed and can’t wait to start the next book in the series, Tempting Auzed!!!!!
*I've read the series once and listened to the audiobook 3 times now and LOVE it! Stephen Dexter is an amazing narrator!
Luka, Theo's brother, is a fertility researcher trying to discover a cure for the Clecanians' low birt3.5 ⭐️ Luke is just so f*cking hot!
Summary:
Luka, Theo's brother, is a fertility researcher trying to discover a cure for the Clecanians' low birth rates. He uncovers a sinister plot by a fellow scientist to abduct compatible species. But before he can tell anyone what he discovered, Luka is captured, drugged, and thrown in a cell.
Alice is kidnapped by reptilian creatures and forced into a cell with a drugged and incoherent Luka for some kind of breeding experiment. Even though they aren't able to communicate, Alice and Luka find solace in each other's company. As the days pass, Alice starts to wonder what a life with Luka might look like outside of the prison. When an opportunity to free herself, Luka, and other human prisoners present itself, Alice takes it.
Once free, Alice and Luka have a hard time navigating their relationship. Is what they feel for each other real or is it because they shared trauma or is it the mating marks that appeared once they were free? Neither Alice nor Luka want to push the other into something they don't truly want, which leads to a lot of misunderstandings.
My Thoughts:
This was an entertaining story overall, and I mostly enjoyed how it expanded the abduction plot.
What I loved:
The world-building. We learn so much more about the Clecanians' history and planet!
Discovering more of the nefarious plot about abducting humans. Turns out these weren't random abductions, and it's widespread and led by a secret organization! I’m excited to see where this goes and who’s really behind it!
Luka and Alice’s playfulness with each other (once they finally overcome the relationship hurdles). They’re so damn cute. I love how Alice brings out his goofy side. ☺️
The sexual tension and spice. I would say there's more smolder than smut in this story, but it's good all the same. I especially loved when Luka calls Alice ‘mine’ and ‘good girl’. ...more

Summary:
Jade is abducted by aliens but escap4.25 ⭐️ I’m so hooked it’s insane! Perfect alien romance for all you Ice Planet Barbarian lovers!!!!
Summary:
Jade is abducted by aliens but escapes and is rescued by the Clecanians (who have the same ancestors as humans). Unfortunately, Jade can't go back to Earth and according to the rules of the Intergalactic Alliance, she must stay in Clecania for one year to learn how to take care of herself under these new circumstances.
And during that time, Jade must follow Clecanians' customs and marry. But marriage is different on this planet. Due to a lack of females, their race is slowly dying, so marriages are seen as trial periods and only last 3 months.
Jade ends up choosing Theo, a sexy mercenary who has been previously passed over due to his scars (which look like beautiful tattoos to Jade). Theo thinks she's a spy sent by his enemies while Jade thinks he's a grumpy, sexy asshole. But something pulls them together and after a while, their chemistry becomes undeniable. However, Jade is determined to return to Earth, so she can't possibly fall in love with an alien. . . right?
My Thoughts:
You're telling me this story is about a human woman who gets abducted and taken to a planet where there are sexy males who go to husbandry school to learn how to be the best possible partner???? Where they learn how to cook, clean, provide comfort and pleasure for their females??? Sign me up!
This is a fun story with an interesting romantic plot, fascinating world-building, and amazing sexual tension/spice! ...more
