Anders

An Auxem Novel

By: Lisa Lace

Narrated by: Connor Brown, Piper Fairweather

Battling pirates is easier than resisting their heat...

Gwen has always denied her attraction to Anders. Even after her marriage ends, getting involved with Anders is unthinkable. It's not only that he's a hot alien prince. He's her co-pilot and best friend. She can't risk losing him.

Anders has always been a rebel, but a near-death experience has made him question his priorities. Now that Gwen's single, he can't pretend they're just friends. He's always loved her, but if she doesn't admit she cares for him too, he'll get his heart broken.

When pirates seize their starship, taking the rest of the royal family hostage, it's up to Anders and Gwen to look for help. Can they stay alive long enough to defeat the pirates and save the passengers? And if they do, will Gwen finally stop fighting her feelings?

another brother.

Great books.. I love the Auxem characters. i want to read more about the brothers. I believe this could be a separate series from the Terra mates. This book was just as good as the first two in the Auxem world.

Tales of the sexy winged alien Royals continue!

Another story of a winged alien royal brother. Lisa's books in this series continue to be great. . Each brother's story is so unique and well written. A little heat and a lot of action makes for a great, romantically enthralling book. These Royal boys sure provide a lot of interesting antics as they find their life mates and work to save their alien race. A wonderful addition to this author's work.

Lisa does it again with a great book

I received this audiobook free for an honest review. I try to listen to ALL of Lisa Lace's books because they ever disappoint me, and this one was no exception. I love her books. She is a very creative and talented writer. She brings me in from the beginning and never lets go. I can't stop listening to her works. Always looking forward to the next one. The narrators did an excellent job of this book, its story and its characters. Every book of hers is a standalone and can be read separately. One of the great things that she does. Every book has a story that is very different from any others that she has written.

an entertaining tale

I was pretty amused, haa Anders is pretty clever alright I liked him, poor Gwen having to get all of that punishment in their relationship and she couldnt decide either why ?

now this indecision was part of the enchantment of the book because they kept making mistakes so basic it was funny, now the piloting was so hot really.

and I liked that this one too interwined with other books on terramates series that eas a super plus.

Anders and Gwen

Anders is the typical middle child, he's never really been appreciated and he has never really taken the time to prove himself. His one achievement is that he is an excellent pilot. Unfortunately he has managed to get himself banned from ever flying the best fighter ships because of a drunken mistake.

Gwen is human and his co-pilot and Anders thinks she would be a perfect mate/wife for him and has loved her from afar for a long time. She has always been out of bounds because she is married to another human worker on the ship. The ship in question is carrying the "Human Brides" and the hope of the Auxem race back to Auxem. Also on the ship are Ander's four brothers and his father. His father is King of Auxem which makes Anders a Prince.

The previous two books in this series were the stories of Arnon, the Crown Prince and Ayrie and how they met their wives/mates as part of an agreement with Earth to provide women who do not carry a certain gene because carriers of this gene give birth to boys and Auxem is a world without women. All the women having died from a virus and now that same virus is beginning to effect the men, they will all be sterile within a few years and the race will die out without the birth of lots of girl babies to carry on the race.

In this book Anders finds out that Gwen's husband has left her and she is now divorced. He thinks his attraction to her is not reciprocated and that he will have to be content being just her friend and partner at work. On the day he finds out that Gwen is a free woman their transport ship is captured by space pirates. Gwen and Anders are the only ones able to escape and try to get help. The pirates intend to sell everything of value on the ship, especially the women, and will probably kill the men.

Whist Anders and Gwen are off ship trying to elicit help their attraction deepens and they not only have to contend with finding help they have to battle their attraction to each other because each believes that the other is too good for them and to just have a fling is not possible because once a man from Auxem has sex with a woman they are bonded and if they bond without love then both of them can go mad! Added to this the men of Auxem have a secret that they are not able to tell not even to their mates/wives by Royal Decree, The future of their race depends upon it.

Even once they find help they still have to free everyone on the ship without the pirates finding out and killing people or selling the women. It's a really exciting tale and is beautifully told by the excellent narrators. Piper Fairweather and Connor Brown.

I can't wait for the next book in the series. All the brothers are so different as are the women they end up loving.
