Wed to the Alien Assassin

Accidental Alien Brides, Book 6

De: January Bell

Narrado por: Mason Lloyd, Hollie Jackson

My husband is the deadliest alien warlord of all, and I hate that about him... until he's exactly what I need.

I've dedicated my life to doing as much good as possible. I won't let my marriage to the big and buff alien assassin, Feruz, wreck my plans. I don't care if I accidentally swore to be his mate at what I thought was a welcoming ceremony. My morals are the polar opposite of his, and I want nothing to do with him... even if my new life on his planet is a bit lonely.

When Feruz offers me a way out of our marriage, I take it in a heartbeat. If I go on one date with him to a relaxing resort and still want out of our marriage, he'll leave me alone.

Except, our date quickly goes bad: my husband is the target of ruthless mercenaries who also want to kidnap me. I am determined to abide by my non-violent oaths… an oath Feruz agrees to honor as well, even if it goes against all his training and instincts.

I never imagined Feruz would be the sort of male I'd want by my side, but when push comes to shove, he might be a better partner than I could ever imagine.

Went to the assassin

The story was not in line with what we had been led to believe the assassin was really like. That kind of bothered me a lot through the whole story he went from being extremely difficult and surly and rude to being a marshmallow. It just didn’t work for me. As a stand without the background of the surly rudeness in the previous books, it was OK.

Formulaic, but it works!

The heroine: Tati - she is a doctor from Earth who joined the Federation after the Roth attacked Earth. She doesn’t like killing and believes in saving lives instead of taking them. The federation sends her and a bunch of other women on what they called a diplomatic mission to Suevan territory to befriend the Suevan people. She is not happy to find that the “Welcome Ceremony” was actually a wedding, and her government basically sold her and the other women in exchange for Suevan tech that will help protect Earth. She finds herself married to not only a strong Suevan warrior, but an assassin who stands for everything she hates.

The Hero: Feruz - he is not only the assassin for the Suevan people, but the most lethal Suevan assassin who has ever lived. He chose Tati to be his wife and wants her to accept him. When she looks at him with loathing and repulsion, it truly hurts him. He offers her a deal; to come with him in his spaceship and spend a day with him, he will let her go when it is over if that is what she wants. He plans to take her to a resort planet to get a massage and spa treatments because one of the other women said she likes that.

The Story: Tati is not only a doctor, but since coming to Suevan territory, she has been a researcher. She came up with a contraceptive patch for her fellow females that works against alien sperm, she also has created a pain killer and some other medicines that work well out of the Suevan flora. She doesn’t think there is any way she will ever accept being married to an Assassin so she agrees to go with Feruz, hoping to be let go when their time is over.

This was another enjoyable book in this series, with the same format as the rest. The two main characters go off alone together and go through some dangerous and suspenseful situations that end up bringing them together and ultimately getting to know each other and understand each other, before they fall for each other and give in to their attraction and eventually fall in love. This is a formula that works well for me, as I love a journey story and there is also some steam, but not too much to overtake the story.

This audiobook was told in multiple points of view and was narrated in dual narration by Mason Lloyd and Hollie Jackson. I really like both narrators for alien romance. Hollie Jackson has a very expressive voice and her voice for male characters is not bad at all. Mason Lloyd has a deep voice which works well for massive alien warriors. The narration on this book is terrific.

The all over adventure

I like the protectiveness of husbands to their wives even though they’re feeling we’re not return they never gave up

It was ok

Not sure how to rate the female narrator always irritates me, but I did like the male. So a bad ass make becomes a homemaker mmm not sure if that was ok to me.

My favorite of the books so far

I love this story. It was quite interesting and thrilling. I hope they have a series for the dragonsss

Another gem!!! .

I love this series, how wvery booke seems to have a different trope, this one was more alow burn. Also Love how every story over laps at some point. and we still get blips of the other Federation officers lives and marraiges. The action and romance are fantastic. Both vioce actors play their role perfectly, even when voicing 4 different characters at the same time. each character has their own pitch and vocal patterns that are easily differentiated. The only thing I wish was that they voiced not only their seperate chapters but individual lines.
This story revolves around the accidental bride Tatiana.One of the federations best doctors whose sole purpose is to heal others. Her new husband is the Assasin. She finds her self at odds with their differences and his smug behavior. He kills people and doesn't bat an eye. Their perfect date gets spoiled and they have to work together to get back home alive. Several new characters have come in to play.
By the end they are coming to terms with each other and sharing their truths. the last few chapters give us a glimpse into the next couples story , and continue to follow the others which helps tie everything together.

The pacifist’s hangup drags things down

This installment lacked as much humor as the rest of the series, which was unfortunate because it also upped the angsty backstory for Tati. As she and Faruz find themselves hunted by droves of mercenaries, Tati must come to grips with the past traumas that formed her into a pacifist.

The friction between pacifist Tati and assassin Faruz also meant a slower burn compared to the other couples, and fewer naughty scenes.

Several of the formula bits were also lesser copies. For example, the pets that Tati gains come into the story very late and add very little. Or, for example, the schtick where she gets drunk, dosed or poisoned with something that makes her sex starved once again pops up, but just didn’t work for me as well as with previous couples.

“Either whip out your Twinkies and measure them … or let’s keep moving.”
The one new and improved bit was the addition of Pol as a third wheel to this couple’s killer conflict.
This was enough to make this a satisfactory sale purchase.

Life and Death lead to love

I was very intrigued by the alien massage table, I want one. I wasn’t crazy about another we’ve got to fight our way out troupe but if it got them together I suppose it was worth it. I wasn’t crazy very excited to find the boxes onboard the pirate ship contained coffee and other Earthly necessities. I hope Cecile went willingly with Paul, she’s been through enough.

So weak

Tati was a weak crazy main female character. The female in captivity had more balls than Tati; someone trying to kill your mate and all you can scream is”don’t kill him!” I don’t think so 🤔. It took a lot to continue listening to this. Faruz was pretty easily beatable to be an assassin. Pol was much better at warfare. Narrators did a good job, brought some humor to the story which is why it deserved at least 2 stars. I like to listen to a book about Pol.

really hard to finish.

I wish I would have read the reviews before purchasing! I really don't want finish this book. The FMC is annoying, and very unrealistic. I just do not understand why these characters were written this way?
