Publisher's Summary

Alessandra Kennedy wakes up to a veritable hell, locked in a cage and held captive by aliens. But her greatest fear is of what lies beyond those cell doors. What horrors will the new life beyond her prison have to offer? 

She imagined every worst-case scenario and all the horrible things that might await her, but never once did she imagine she would become an alien's bride. The strange new culture that takes her in certainly does things differently than humans. Will she be able to get through the time she shares with her alien husband (without arguing) for long enough to make it home? Or will she lose her heart somewhere along the way?  

Kye Amara, the rich and cocky diplomat, has always had everything at his disposal: money, women, success. But when a neighboring government tries to impress him with a gift of five beautiful slaves, he finds himself drawn to one of them. Quickly, this human tears down everything Kye thought he knew about himself, challenging him in a way he has never experienced before. 

Has Kye Amara finally met his match? And will he be able to prove he is man enough for his alien bride?  

Contains mature themes.

Annoying heroine

It's really hard to like the story when you despise the main character(s). I found the heroine to be extremely annoying. Her stubbornness was just stupid and unnecessary. As for the story itself, it is slow with very little substance to hang on to. Not worth the credit or the anticipating for the release.

what a witch

the story was fine, however, the lead female character was just a hag. all she cared about was herself and no matter what the guy tried to do she treated him like the villain. no consideration for cultural differences and no empathy. she was just a jerk. made it hard to enjoy the story because he really deserved someone nicer at least.

Hard to believe, so much attitude

This young lady was captured, held prisoner in a glass cage nude and then rescue. And the whole time she was friends with everyone but the one who saved her. It was that way through the whole book. I found myself skipping her dialogue ( that always rambled ) just to get past her unrealistic way she looked at only her husband. It was an exhausting read. But the narrators were great. This book get better one hour before it ended. So if you buy, try to wait until the end.

Could not Finish

I love the narrator of this book, however even with the amazing job I couldn't handle the grating main characters. They guy isn't as horrible as the main female. Quick to strike out, selfish, no ability to think of her surroundings, other worlds customs, and most of the time afraid. Always droning on about her on issues regardless of others around her. I absolutely couldn't finish this book mainly because of her. I thought it would be good because in the beginning it gives a more realistic view on a person's response to being abducted and sold into slavery and that's where my appreciation for this book ends. Listening to this story at parts where it was about the main female character was like nails on a chalk board. think really hard before you waste you money or credit on this book.

I LOVE the heroine!!

All the people that said shes "bitchy" are idiots!

She was kidnapped as a sex slave, "given" as a fucking gift to some arrogant asshole! Throughout the entire story he was actively trying to sweep what happened to her and hundreds of others under the rug. Even with that she was very fair to him. If you love weak, stupid heroines who make shitty choices then this is NOT the book for you. I did love their romance and I loved it because she was so strong! Excellent! I almost didn't buy this because of the bad reviews on how awful the heroine was. Sooooo glad I did!! to be clear I fell in love with the hero too! he didn't remain a dbag!

Toward the end she did become irrationally unfair to him. That one situation made me get why so many thought she was irrational.

Of course the performance was absolutely amazing!!

A Great Book

I enjoyed the narrators but the storyline got really annoying in some areas. However, the overall story was interesting enough to see through the rough edges. Worth listening to and overall a good book.

Not her usual style

I am usually very happy with these books. They are a quick read and enjoyable. Unfortunately this time I felt that the heroine was a spoiled brat. It got me more annoyed and frustrated at all stupid things she was saying and doing.
Narration was excellent

Takes quite a while to like the characters

The narration was incredible the book was just okay.
The main characters, in my opinion, are both unlikable for at least the first half of the book. Alexandria is annoying and misunderstands almost everything. I should have felt sorry for her predicament and I did, but she seemed to disagree with Kye just to have something to complain about. I am not really sure if she changed much until the very end.
Kye on the other hand was egotistical at the beginning so that he had some way to show growth. Which happened about the Midway point.
So if you are willing to stick with the book until the end then you will likely enjoy it. I was disappointed at first that we had a new couple rather than following a couple from book one but they eventually ended up on the new planet with the previous characters which helped tie it together.

love it.

I just want to smack the chick upside the head. Bad manners rudeness is just annoying. But she is funny. The scary thing is I know a few women who have a similar attitude without horrors happening to them. Haha love the series and look forward to more of cray antics.

Good story despite the hero

The hero was immovable for me. Yet still the story was engaging enough that I was eager to hear what happened next. Despite Kai's insensitivity, selfishness and dishonesty the author managed to craft the tale so I did still care what happened to him and want Alessandra to have her happily ever after. On to the next tale in this series!
