May be offensive to a stout feminist!

Ok, let me start by reminding everyone that this a work of fantasy fiction and should be evaluated, as such. The community that this book is set in is a true patriotically society. Meaning, Men and Women have roles similar to prehistoric times. Men are the hunters and protectors and women are gatherers and do the child rearing. Therefore, to enjoy the intent, of the author, a listener can use feminist values to evaluate the book; it’s make believe, remember?
The whole point is that the Heroine is so attracted to the Hero because of his Alpha ways; which are so different than she is used to. Therefore, there is domestic discipline and a sort of D/s power exchange between the Heroine and Hero. Hey, this makes this couple happy so don’t be critical, just enjoy this explicit, sexy love story. I did!!!!Honestly, I wish this would have been a series.

Great Intergalactic BDSM Story

The Hand of Vengeance began with Dr. Lara Simmons being taken by the group of rebels lead by Blade Vengeance. Without knowing what Lara was kidnapped for, Lara did everything she could think of in escaping.

Blade has only one mission which is to bring Dr. Lara Simmons to perform an emergency surgery which would save the rightful exiled President's life and restored her to power. Lara refused to obey his rules which are to keep her safe. The only thing that Blade could do was to discipline her by spanking.

What Lara didn't count on was that her traitorous body like being spanked by Blade and has her sexually aroused. Tried as she might, she can't help but admired Blade for his heroic actions in freeing his people from the slavery.

The story is very well written and told from Lara and Blade's point of view. Both characters came from a different background. Lara couldn't trust Blade that he would keep her save and to keep his word that she will be released after she has completed a task for the rebels. Blade couldn't offer Lara anything after being a slave and a freedom fighter.

Blade didn't planned on falling for Lara. She was a distraction that he cannot afford when preparation for the final strike of the revolution against the tyrant in power.

Another thing I like about the story is that the relationship develops between Lara and Blade. Even both are at odds with each other, they develop a mutual understanding of each other roles.

The story is very well-balanced between the storyline, conflicts, and submissive spanking sex. This is one audible book that I will listen again.

The narrator, Sierra Kline does an excellent job in narrating the story. I love the tone and infliction of her voice for each of the characters. The narrator's voice held my attention and has me hooked to the story. I couldn't wait to listen to the rest of the story and really wanted to blow off work except that I can't.

I was given this audiobook by the narrator via Audiobook Blast and voluntary wrote a review for the book. I was not compensated or influenced in any way for writing this review.

In the line

This was a pretty good book until the end. The last great sex scene was boring then it went on to another epilogue with him massaging her clit while she gives birth. This is so implausible as to make the ending of the book destroy the mostly good book which came before

Sexy Alien rebels

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Hand of Vengeance?

I really liked this book, it had a bit more of a dom/sub relationship going on than I expected but it was very enjoyable overall. If spanking turns you off, this might not be the book for you, because there are a lot of mentions of spanking in this book. I liked how honorable both the characters were and they also seemed believable in a way most characters in novels aren't. I got this book in exchange for a honest review

FANTASTIC FANTASY

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Renee Rose knows how to capture your attention from the beginning and keep it throughout the entire story! Loved the kidnapping of the doctor and listening to the dominance of her warrior and the way their love story blossomed!

Very original si/fi romance

I have to say this book stands above and beyond all the other si/fi books I have listened to or read. You painted a very vivid picture while keeping me entertained with the story line. The female and male roles were strong. I loved both characters. Thank you so much for the epilogue. It just made the book even better. I recommend highly. Great steamy romantic, with a good amount of angst. Just wanted to also add the narrator was great.

Exciting sci-fi romance adventure!

The heroine in this audiobook is a doctor, on a war torn planet for a humanitarian mission. In the midst of surgery, she is kidnapped by the hero to save the rebel leader’s life. They go from having an adversarial relationship to one of love, but there are pitfalls and ambushes ahead for their lives. I really enjoyed this story a lot, but be forewarned there are some sex scenes and domestic discipline scenes in the book.
