Freeing Luka

Clecanian Series, Book 2

De: Victoria Aveline

Narrado por: Stephen Dexter

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 😏🥵

10/10 new favorite so good I need more

this series has it all spice, plot, action and the way I am so invested in the characters perfection! I usually don't leave reviews but I have to it's truly that good. I need the whole series hopefully more come out and with the same narrators just perfect

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.

Recommend? 7/10

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.

Another fantastic story

I agree with a reviewer that one person totally lied in her review. This female was very courageous and brave, she fought back from the very beginning and rescued herself & others, she was not whinny and didn’t spend the first 2 hours of the book crying. It was mentioned that she cried twice, no lengthy sobbing or feeling sorry for herself. These characters and new ones mentioned are very interesting and likable, there was a good amount of mystery/danger plus some very hot sex. The sex came later than I like but it fit the storyline. Can’t wait to start the next book. Great narration by Stephen Dexter.

Great love story

I know there is a negative post on this story, but I loved it.

I was a victim of abuse and it is very difficult to trust someone after that.

I relate the some of the heroins insecurities. I was lucky enough to find a wonderful person that also was extremely patient with me. We have been together for 19 years and I know they will be many more.

I praise the writer for thinking outside the box and shedding some light on the issue of trust.

I truly enjoyed the story and believe there is something for everyone.

Take the chance on it it’s good.

So I don’t usually write reviews but I was reading the reviews and they weren’t the greatest so I thought I had put my two cents in it. I’m just going to be realistic on what I thought. This book was pretty good it wasn’t the most amazing book I’ve ever read in my life but still a really good second book to the series! I read a review saying that she just cries a ton in the beginning and what’s actually happening is just character development. I actually liked the truthfulness of how she felt and her overcoming her past trauma to let Luca in. It would’ve been pretty boring if she was just some bad ass who is totally fine being taken from her home and then totally fine with some random stranger she never met before to be her mate. I think she only cried once maybe twice. There was only one moment where I was like OK come on let’s move on and that was in the middle of the book because of some repetition. but after that Little drag in story the story picked up and was good to listen to! I think if you like the first book this one will be good to just give it a chance!
