Publisher's summary

Luka has spent his life researching fertility in the hopes of discovering a cure for the Clecanians' low birth rates. After years of working tirelessly with little progress, he becomes enraged when he uncovers a sinister plot to abduct compatible species from their home planets. But before he can tell anyone what he's discovered, he's captured, drugged, and thrown in a cell.

It's just Alice's luck that when she finally begins to get her life on track, she's kidnapped by reptilian creatures and forced into a cell with a fierce incoherent alien 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 drag on, it becomes harder to keep her heart locked away, until she can't help but wonder what a life with Luka might look like outside their dark prison. When an opportunity to free herself, Luka, and the other human prisoners presents itself, Alice takes it.

Once free, can Alice and Luka's tenuous relationship survive on this planet? Will the evil men that held them prisoner ever see justice? Alice knows only one thing for certain - her life will never be the same again.

Contains mature themes.

Binged it

Choosing Theo hooked me so hard that I immediately started listening to Freeing Luka. I love a world-building story and I find myself imagining every location described in this book. It just adds to the thrill of the plot development. As a MMC, Luka didn’t quite grab me like Theo did, but he was no less endearing. Very sweet story, easy to read annnnnd… there’s a “Good Girl” snuck in there, too 😏🥵

Another very enjoyable book ❤️

Although I did not enjoy it exactly as much as the first one, it was not at all as bad as some reviews made it out to be. I especially liked the introduction of alien wildlife and other details that enriched this world, like the Pearl Temple and the queen. Luka was as attractive and interesting as his brother (the purring, the nickname "love", the needing to touch her, just great), while Alice made me angry a few times, keeping on comparing her exes to every situation she got into. I would've liked her to be a bit more grateful and aware of how special Luka was, even though there were a few misunderstandings between the two. In general I would've preferred the story to be a bit longer or maybe a bit more focused on the building of their relationship. In any case, there was more good than bad so I still recommend it. I also loved seeing glimpses of the other brothers, and of Theo and Jade.

keep them coming please

It was a good story but it in no way compares to the 1st book. It was nice getting to meet Lukka, But I think the real highlight for me was getting to follow up with Theo and Jade and see how they are doing. lol. also learning more about the other siblings.

Yes!

Love, absolutely love, the way Luka and Alice meet! Love the impression of a scary monster alien who turns out to be a complete softy where his mate is concerned. Miscommunications lead to them not seeing eye to eye for a bit, but it's easily resolved. A villain tries to get in the way of their love, yet they persevere. (I'm already listening to the third and I think I'm going to love it.)

I personally love these story’s

I eat this up, couldn’t stop listening. Iv missed the feeling, read so many meh books lately. This however was perfect for me. No big complaints, harsh at time but light hearted for most of it, makes me wish I had a Luka of my own to worship the ground I walk on. Happy ending no cliffhanger as it should be.

Another great Story

Liked that there was a bit more on the other character. Another great story. Great Narration.

Yes!

Such a fun, sexy series. I love the world building, the character development and the narrator! Start with book one for the best experience. I’ve listened to all this series a number of times and I love it! Please keep writing them. Please!

Enchanting story

Totally loved the story. Need to get the next one. Can't wait for it.

Incredible voice acting!

Excellent storyline, really strong narrator, absolutely a book I would recommend listening to! Very cute love story, you can count on a happy ending.

Cute listen

This was an entertaining audio. Not as much spice? But it was a great story. Luka was adorable and I was quite happy for Alice that she found somewhere she felt important and loved. Now in to the next
