Finally, Rick's Story

His Woodland Maiden is the long awaited story I have been waiting for, Rick's story. I have not read the first book so from the summary of the second, third, and fourth book, it is basically all Rick's fault for getting his four shipmates and himself curse in finding love. Rick is cocky, irresponsible, and too carefree. When it comes to his ship, that is his only true responsibility and relationship that he has.

His Woodland Maiden shows flashback of Rick's past. It definitely explain a lot of his past and his relationship with Harper. Rick did find his true love except that Harper kept erasing his short-term memory of her. There are moments I was wondering the long term effects on Rick's memory. I felt like Will Smith's character in MIB, protesting whenever Rick's short-termed memory kept getting erased.

This story definitely did not disappoint. Love Rick and Harper's story. I'm just sad that this is the end of this series.

The narrator, Michael Ferraiuolo is the right person to narrates this series. I do hope he does come back for the other series the author, Michelle M. Pillow has. I am looking forward to listening to him again.

I was given this audiobook by the author. I have voluntary decided to write an unbiased review for this book. I was not compensated or influenced in any way for writing this review.

Rick and his own starbeam

I’m so happy with the way the series wrapped up! Everyone with a HEA! It also ends with a giant stroke to ricks ego … like he needed it lol. I adore Harper. She’s so fierce and brave. She brings out a growly over protective alpha in Rick, which is adorable!.

His Woodland Maiden

This is the fifth and final installment in the Space Lords series and is Rick and Harper's story. This was thoroughly enjoyable and a fitting conclusion to this series. I love that it tied things together so well and answered some questions I had about Rick's childhood and a friend he lost back then. Rick was his usual cocky self and Harper the perfect individual to put him in his place. Harper was an HIA agent that Rick had met and fell for several times before but he didn't remember because Harper kept injecting him with something to make him forget so that she could keep him safe. The storyline is quite involved but involves them trying to save people enslaved on a planet by a family of royals. The prince from this family was also tracking their ship because he found out Harper had deceived him and he wanted revenge. Can they outrun the prince and save countless people from being worked to death and the periodic purge. Guess you will have to check this story out if you want to find out. There's also a little surprise for Rick and Harper at the end that makes for the perfect HEA.

RECOMMENDED ADVENTUROUS SERIES

I often wondered at Rick's story when reading the previous stories in this entertaining series. I thought it would have to be as mysterious as his personality and it certainly was. I really enjoyed his story and listened twice it was so packed with answers and adventure.

Rick's story, last but not least

This is the fifth and final Space Lords audiobook. Even though I'm sad to see it end, Michelle M Pillow does a great job wrapping the whole story up and bringing it full circle. Since it's the finale this review will be short as I refuse to give the ending away. With that said:
This is most hysterical because it is Rick's story and he's such a lovable goofball of a character. All questions you may have are answered and a special something makes it way to Qurilixen.
It's action packed, laugh out loud funny and so enjoyable you'll want to listen to the whole book in one sitting.
The narration is top notch and I have found my second favorite male narrator. This may be listened to as a standalone but the whole series is worth every penny!
I highly recommend this as well as all of Michelle M Pillow's audiobooks/books.

His Woodland Maiden, a great ending to series

The fifth and final book in the Space Lords series. Space Pirate Rick Hayes and Agent Harper Virant's story along with the rest of the crew. There is suspense, drama, danger, villains, a surprise and romance. I enjoyed listening to this story. Michael Ferraiuolo's voice had me enjoy listening to the story.

Love These Space Pirates!!!

His Woodland Maiden by Michelle M. Pillow is the 5th and final book for these space pirates!!
I loved it!!!
I was sort of on the fence about Rick throughout this series and ending up just absolutely loving his story and so glad I had him pegged all wrong - it just made his story that much better. Great storyline and as always with this authors books, my attention was grabbed at the very beginning and I couldn't put it down. I loved the audio narration as well!!

Funny man gets his turn

Rick is a jokester playboy that we have war he’s through the series flirt his way through every adventure. It’s going well till he finds himself tied up in a cave with a girl he seems to be obsessed with. This book spans space, entertains us and throws surprises even I wasn’t ready for! Loved diving into Ricks backstory and the softy who cover his feelings with big smiles and inappropriate comments finally get his turn. The narrator did a good job though I did speed it up. I didn’t feel like it lost anything just put his voice at a normal Speed as it felt very slow. Each book in this series is a short fun listen that will keep you entertained with their adventures.

I Love this series!!

Rick Hayes is a lot of things: great pilot, ladies man, space pirate. When he's tempted by a beautiful woman, she sees right through him. What he doesn't know is that she's keeping secrets from him. This was such a great ending to thw series!.
