Publisher's summary

He’s shy and scarred and thinks no one will ever love him. She’s determined to show him he’s the hottest alien in the universe.

Durran: The Earthling females are settling into our clan, finding new homes high in the forest's canopy. Matches are being made, but not for me. Scarred as I am, none will ever glance my way. But one Earthling... Rayne's sweet and funny, and I want to scoop her up in my arms and kiss her until she moans my name. To protect my heart, I'll keep busy with my investigation into a new threat to our clan. Someone's harming our trees, and I need to stop them before our way of life is destroyed.

Rayne: To distract myself from my ongoing lust for Durran, I'm focusing on researching the substance poisoning the clan's trees and raising my five-year-old daughter. She's bonding with a trundier, and I'm worried she'll fly off into the sunset on the creature that pretty much looks like a giant hornet. But when Durran and I kiss, and kisses lead to other things, I'm thrown for a loop. Can a gruff alien trundier trainer and a single mom find true love on a planet far from Earth?

Tamed by an Alien Warlord is book two in the Fated Mates of the Ferlaern Warriors series but can be listened to as a standalone. It has heat, aliens who look and act alien, a guaranteed happily ever after, no cheating, and no cliffhanger.

Funny

The private thoughts of both characters, especially Rayne made me LMAO. Speaking of horny lol. Adding another child to the mix was again cute; however, I hope the author mixes it up a bit. Not fond of carbon copy books. Narrators did a fantastic job!

Maelstrom!

The heroine: Rayne - After a disease swept through Earth, killing most of the men, a few alien races who lost most of their women to the same disease contacted Earth, and made treaties and exchanged technology to work together and create a mail order bride type program. Rayne signed up for the program and went to a planet called Ferlaern with her small daughter. Rayne was determined to find out why their mighty trees were dying. She had worked for a landscaping company back home and had an affinity for trees.

The Hero: Durran - He is a Ferlaern warrior, who has been scarred and he thinks that no woman would ever choose him as a mate. He is attracted to Rayne, the human female with a precocious little girl. He is a bit grumpy at the start, but is a nice guy inside. He just wants to protect her and keep her safe.

The Story: Rayne wanted Duran from the start and was craving some intimacy with him, though he was oblivious at first, though he was sure none of the beautiful human women would ever want him because of his scars. Even after she showed him how much she wanted him, he thought she just forgot about his scars for a minute, but would ultimately reject him, so he rejected her first.

I don’t know why romance authors always in a series like this have to have one of the Hero’s with disfiguring facial scars. What is it with that? I mean if as many men in real life had disfiguring facial scars as in romance, we would be seeing men like that all over. Similarly romance authors always have to have heroines with red hair when in reality redheads only make up 1-2% of the population. But whatever…

The story overall was good. I liked the fact that Rayne was intelligent and wanted to find out what was killing the trees. She was brave enough to go out alone in the alien wilderness, though it wasn’t the smartest thing to do. The story got good when they determined that there was some dangerous things happening in the forest.

This book was told in dual points of view via dual narration and was narrated by Felicity Munroe and Stephen Dexter. Felicity Munroe does the narration for a lot of alien romance, and she is very good. She has a great voice and is terrific at showing emotion through her voice and sounding like she is speaking instead of reading. Stephen Dexter is also great. He has a deep yet soft voice and always does an awesome job.

love them all so far

will read again ..loved them just waiting on the next. Def up there with my favorite books..

Totally Enjoyable

I am totally enjoying this book series. The characters have depth and appeal. I am entertained by a little mystery and intrigue, along with the romance and the road to HEA.

no virtual voice

first I want to say thank you for not using virtual voice I appreciate you taking the time and picking narrators to read your book in the series is absolutely wonderful thank you

WORST than the first book if you can believe that!

****AUDIBLE PLEASE POST MY REVIEW *******

I feel CHEATED, because this author ends the books early so that she can give a pre-viewing of her next book! So you're thinking that you have 45 minutes to an hour left of your story but she crams everything up in one chapter and then she spends your epilogue and bonus epilogue basically trying to get you interested in the characters off the next book and that is a RIP OFF! She has the nerve to give you a 15 to 20 minute reading of the next book as short as this book is ! IF Audible says that it's going to be a 7-hour story then I EXPECT a 7-hour story they already shortened it up by a half an hour and then the author comes around and takes even more time off of that to set up her next book what a RIPOFF!!............. Also, IDK 🤷‍♀️ what's up with this lame ass comedy!..............




The male narrator was good, however he does have this kind of sing song whisper thing he does with his voice that I find kind of annoying.... The female narrator is HORRIBLE! She is TERRIBLE at male voices, AWFUL at female voices, however, those damn kid voices were ATROCIOUS!!!!! Drove me up the wall! EXCRUCIATING, CRINGE-WORTHY, and FAST- FORWARD WORTHY!!!!!! Every time she started speaking in those kids voices it made me want to cry ! 😭 I fast forward it through quite a bit of the story.......... For Christ's sake, I know it was other women in the settlement that didn't have children so why do we have to hear about all of these ANNOYING children in every book??? Not only that but both this book and book one was written lazily and rushed and the story content is the same.... Women that got hurt and is afraid to open herself up, men who wants love but it's afraid that he can't get it and the timing is not right!... It's the same story with different main characters and that's TO! Not only that, but the MMC was SO WEAK!!!!! I kept thinking to myself what a SISSY! He whined and shuddered and couldn't think of what to say... "Oh my gosh, could she really like me, what can I do?" "I'm not worthy" "Oh I would be so hurt if she said no" and she was saying the same and sounding just as desperate . They didn't even get together until chapter 23. It was so ANNOYING.... Every time she saw him she talked about how gorgeous he was and vice versa..... She wanted to touch him ALL OF THE TIME.........I never seen two people have oral sex SO MUCH and then still doubt what they have together,!! It's ONE of the DUMBEST books I've had the displeasure of reading! I accidentally ordered book 3 when I was trying to order book 2 so I listened to this book (HORRIBLE ) I feel as if I'm stuck with book 3, I may read it but I swear to God if it's as bad as this one I will stop in the first few chapters because I'm not listening to this garbage again!! This is like a 15-year-olds first attempt at writing. JUST SHAMEFUL!
