Publisher's Summary

Trisha Grove enjoys her job as a pilot for Boswell International, but she realizes something is still missing from her life: her family. She is ready to call it quits and head back home to Wyoming, where her father lives, but her last flight for Boswell ends with an unplanned trip out of this world. Trisha isn't sure at first what's real and what isn't; all she knows is she is determined to get back to her dad - no matter what it takes.

Kelan Reykill is the fourth son in the royal line of Valdier. Commander of the V'ager, one of the largest Valdier warships, he prides himself on his strict self-discipline, his ability to remain in command in any situation, and his skill at handling any challenge. That is until he meets a stubborn human female from the primitive planet his older brother sought refuge on. Now all he can think about is how to get her into his bed and under his control while staying in one piece. But when Trisha is taken from him, Kelan must track her to the ends of the universe and beyond. He knows one thing: She is his true mate, and he will kill anyone who tries to harm her.

Loved it!!

I love the entire series. I started with the Cosmos Gateway series and lived the story telling ability of S.E. Smith that I knew I had to read more of her books. Then I got super excited when I saw they were available on audio. I buy each one as it comes out.

Any additional comments?

I was a bit disappointed in Tracking Trisha. We meet her and her True Mate Kelan Reyhill who is the 4th son in the Royal line of Valdier and Commander of the largest warship V'ager. Trisha Groves Is a divorced 28 year old pilot and skilled tracker hunter. Trisha was taught by her father Paul who owes Groves Wilderness Guide a school for training elect military.

The story is fragmented and 50% of the story re tells books 1 and 2 with no variation. It's a complete copy of what happen in the former stories. There is very little story about Trisha and Kelan. The series has begun to look like a cookie cutter series to me. The really good parts were at the very last page and the epilog of the story. Which were only a few pages. I wish the author had invested her time in writing the story of when Trisha returns to earth Wyoming to get her father. The few different scenes involving Trisha and Kelan that were different from bks 1 and 2 were written in haste and very short.

I Cannot Recommend Tracking Trisha and I am not sure I will read bk 4 Ambushing Ariel. I don't care for repetitiveness!!

Awesome Blend of Romance, Sci-Fi and Paranormal!

S.E. Smith's Dragon Lords of Valdier series is awesome! I love how each story has the perfect balance between humor, action, suspense and steamy sex scenes! The world building and character development is excellent, and all the characters have distinct personalities. I especially like Smith's female characters, they are strong, smart and resourceful.

David Brenin's performance was fantastic. He always does a great job with both the female and male characters.

Worth a credit? A interesting world, full of adventure, action, great characters, toe curling sex scenes makes this an awesome series, and Yes, absolutely worth a credit! Perfect for both Scifi/PNR fans!

A FUN, SCORCHING & DRAMA FILLED SCI-FI ROMANCE

IMO, S E Smith can't write a bad Sci-FI book she has such imaginative world and character building that you can't be anything but blown away by her stories of sexy, handsome, Alpha, Alien Warrior Lords from Valdier who can Shapeshift into Dragons and suddenly they find their true mates, after hundreds of lonely years, amongst Earth's women. But these women are never the type of women they're used to - usually the few women on Valdier are pampered, spoilt and totally looked after b*tches but Earth women are strong, clever, independent, feisty and courageous. This makes for a volatile mix when the Warriors find their true mates...... women who are wanted by the man, the Dragon and the loveable symbiotic entity that all makes up a Valdier Warrior..... but Earth women just don't get it, don't want it and won't stand for being ruled over by these domineering Alpha studs...... but desire is their weakness.

Kelan is the Commander of a spaceship but when he finds his long awaited mate it's the Earth woman Trisha who has been beamed aboard when he saved his brother Zoran together with his Earth mate Abby (from book 1). However, Trisha is a Survivorist as taught by her loving Father so she can look after herself and it's not long before she's running rings around Kelan, teaching him, and his fellow Warriors, a thing or two about what she can do to outwit them.... and all the while falling hopelessly in love with naive, loving and patient Alien.

These books are funny, entertaining, very sexy, have parallel plots from the previous books cleverly entwined in amongst them and are filled with likeable characters. There's always a passionate lust-filled 'claiming' where the Lords inject, through biting, Dragon Fire into their mates which transforms the unsuspecting women into Dragon-shifters. But the consequences of this is never explained so Trisha thinks she is hallucinating everything that's slowly happening to her so, while on a Planet, she runs.... with some very ingenious, sneaky and rewarding results. But it's not until she's kidnapped that Kelan realises he loves her and is frantic to get her back. There's a sub-plot of an evil Uncle who wants to rule Valdier and tries sneaky and potentially deadly ways to do it.

Worth a credit? The things that really stand out are the humorous interactions between species which leads to verbal and physical sparring, funny quick witted conversations and, of course, the instant chemistry followed by a romance that isn't exactly conventional but it still works...... well that and lots and lots of fiery sex.

Good story line

Got a little tired of the graphic sex but the story line was great. Excellent narrator !!

Excellent story

I will admit to not realizing that I was downloading book 3, so I will say that was a little confusing, but it was still an excellent book. The plot is a little wide and covers a LOT of things in this book, but I was very happy with the ending and the narrators voice. I'll be looking for more books using that voice.

Wonderful

I was extremely happy with this book and reader. I am looking forward to the next book in the series.

Keeps getting better!!!

I'm totally hooked....in to the next one. I can't wait to see how the rest of the girls turn out😍😍

in love with this series.

I can't get enough of this series. I am wrapped up in it so much that I am sad when the story ends. Now onto the next book.

I Love this series!

I Love this series of books. Rhis is the second time I've listened to this story. I wish the series would continue!
