Saving Verakko

Clecanian Series, Book 3

By: Victoria Aveline

Narrated by: Stephen Dexter

Length: 11 hrs and 13 mins

Publisher's summary

When Lily is freed from alien captivity, she refuses to wait for rescue - or recapture. She'll take her chances in the forest. Navigating the exotic terrain won't be easy, but it beats the alternative. Then, an enormous alien falls into her camp and makes her question everything. He's rude, grumpy, and annoyingly sexy. Trusting him would be a mistake. And yet...the idea of leaving him behind hurts way more than it should.

Verakko was supposed to liberate the kidnapped humans, then return home to fulfill his obligations. Getting dropped into the forest at the feet of the most confounding female he's ever met was not on the agenda. So, he'll help her, then they'll go their separate ways. That's the plan...until he starts to suspect that Lily is his mate.

She doesn't trust easily. He has secrets and responsibilities he can't avoid forever. Only one thing is clear. If Lily and Verakko want their happily ever after, they'll have to fight more than the dangers of the forest to get it.

Contains mature themes.

Two more books on Kindle

Not all books on audible. It's a great series but I wish all 5 books were on here.

Love This Story

I loved how the mains found each other and negotiated their relationship. It was funny, sexy and romantic.

Unexplainable

I’m not too sure why I enjoyed the series so much. It’s the typical alien society that does not have enough females. But how the Clecanians have dealt with it is interesting. A whole society wrapped around ensuring the continuation of their race without kidnapping females from earth. Then comes along some bad guys that do it anyway. I especially like the fact that the Clecanian society is matriarchal meaning that in regards to procreation the males don’t have a lot of power. The males normally treat the women as treasures which gives this listener a warm fuzzy feeling. Mr. Dexter’s narration gives it a gentle touch which seems to be very apropos for the Clecanian society.

Mixed feelings but still need book 4

The first book continues to dominate, but I think I liked this one more than the second…though it’s a tough call. This one I just felt like the drama dragged on for too long and it all could have been solved by CLEAR communication. Like why is Lily not asking more questions about things?!?! She’s sooo arrogant. I still enjoyed the book though and am dying for the next one!

2times fast

I was looking forward to this book but it fell short.
Verakko was previously a really strong character but was made weak, insecure, and a big whiner in his story. This book was dual POV so it literally switched from the human (Lily)to the alien pity pot. I had to listen on two times speed.
Narration was great I wish I hadn’t needed to speed it.
Spice 🌶️.5,
Good world building
I’m still continuing with the series because I liked the first two books so much.

Cute

All the books so far are good, they are not corny or silly/stupid they are cute, Especially this one. She made the aliens and the humans and how we both came about work.

🎶Love this!

I believe this is my favorite Victoria Aveline book so far. Mars Needs Women & Enemies to Lovers tropes. Victoria Aveline has slow burn to roaring inferno down to an art.
I highly recommended not only this book but, the entire Calcanian series. 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ and 5🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶

another excellent one!

this author does a great job of ratcheting up the tension and Everytime you think they are finally going to cave and give in to each other something real world happens and makes you wait again for them to put their confusion aside and give in!
I love the care she takes in making sure each female lead has her own thoughts and motivation outside of just being a damsel in need of rescue!

Hooked

The third in this amazing series. Such good stories and sexy fun! Sometimes romance novels are short on story and way over the top with sex. Not this series. Yes very steamy but also a cool world and addicting story. Keep writing please!

Loved all 3 books!!!

I only have one con... the "decision " was drawn out far too long. The book was amazing otherwise . Hoping for another book in this series. Maybe Izzo or Fayo or the demon... anywhere looking forward to more books from this Author.
