Resumen del Editor

Brittany

Awakening in the middle of a nightmare, I realize I'm being sold like an animal to be studied and dissected in the name of science. Tragedy strikes, leaving me abandoned and sick. I am only moments from taking my last breath, when strong arms pull me from the darkness. I thought it was a blessing that he found me, the green man who had haunted my dreams. But what is the old saying? "Don't count your chickens until they hatch!"

A blood sucking parasite is eating me alive, literally, and no matter what, I'm not going to survive this horror story. He holds me down and I struggle weakly against his immense strength, choking as blood fills my lungs, when I can't fight any more, Death opens its arms and invites me in.

XuL

My harsh, brutal features have deterred all females, no matter the species. Then I find her, my Kismet, the only one made just for me. But the fates are cruel, especially to a male like me.

I am being forced to destroy the fragile bond that has formed between us, as I have to make the hardest decision of my life. One that will make me lose her either way. Upon her final breath, I vow not even Death will keep what's mine.

Contains mature themes.

The heroine: Brittany - she was seventeen years old when she was taken captive by alien creatures then sold at auction to a zoo on an alien planet. Though she wasn’t tortured or cut to pieces like some of the women, she saw it all.

The Hero: XuL - oldest son to DaR of the House of DaR. He is half Orc and though he is considered good looking among other Orcs, the way he looks pretty much scare most of the females he meets on Darvarius. He found himself more than interested in humans when he met his father's female, Kira. So, when Kira told them that another woman named Brittney was also sold at the same auction, XuL says he will go find where she was sold and rescue her.

The Story: Brittany ends up as an exhibit in a bestiary, where an AI tells her she is there to be studied. XuL doesn’t have an easy time finding Brittany and when he finally does, he has to fight his way to her, but he knows she is his Kismet, his fated mate. He is determined to not give up until he saves her.

I love this series so far. I have read the first and fourth books so far and each book is completely different than the one before, so this is great. DaR and his 22 sons are all different species, so it is nice that each book is about a different kind of alien. I liked the fact that everything that happened was completely unexpected. Brittany’s time at the bestiary really surprised me and nothing happened like I thought it would.

This book is told in multiple points of view via dual narration and was narrated by Emily Sutton-Smith and Tor Thom. Tor is one of my favorite narrators with a super deep voice which is great for alien or paranormal romance. Emily has a soft, feminine voice that is very pleasant, and I enjoyed her narration quite a bit.

I love it

I wish it’ll last longer because the history and performance are awesome I can’t wait to read the next one

A little fast pace

A little fast paced and sporadic. In the beginning. It gets a little confusing. It’s kind of hard to keep up with male lead.

Awesome

I absolutely love this book. It was amazing it drew you wearing it kept you in. Treasa kept wanting to go the narrators both have an amazing voices. They gave it a realism and they draw you in all around. It was an awesome book.

Green is Good!

When a Green alien saves you life will be better … eventually.
What a fun out of this world adventure! This story also starts out with great descriptions of what is going on. It’s very different and readers will love the hood guy’s completely! Enjoy

Another well done

Much better

The first one did not show romance but this one was definitely better showing more passion for each other. Narrated better!

Enjoy the books. can not wait until the last 3 books are available in audio books

I enjoyed this book

Definitely enjoyed this book but I do think it was a bit rushed and too short. I would have loved to hear more about their story. I think the ending with the baby is my favorite part.
