Freeing Luka

Clecanian Series, Book 2

By: Victoria Aveline

Narrated by: 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

love this series!

No freaky tenticle monsters here. if you love the enemy's to lovers vibe and fated mates- you're in the right place! a vivid world that isn't too out there and sci-fi for casual readers who don't like excessive world building. a nice level of spice that complements rather than dominates the story but is very sexy and well written. This series has action, intrigue and romance as well as humor and everything you want from a fish out of water romance. I wasn't sure what to expect and ended up binging the who series. the narrator is fantastic and does a great job with the male and female voices. not to breathy or growly like some I've heard recently and realistic female voices. I love interconnected romance series where we get to run Into our previous leads and see how they are doing. Haven't found a world I wanted to live in this much since Prythian. highly recommend.

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.

Awwww Luka is the best!

What a story! Love that Luka loves hard, and it’s just an altogether awesome story full of action, some spice, and alien vibe. Go Alice with your brave self! The purring is just chefs kiss!

romantic

It's got some funny parts and some scary parts but it is super cute with the romance! I really like this whole series.
