Publisher's Summary

Despite being dumped on a primitive alien world, Lily is adapting to life there, with the help of Frrar, Tor, and Arruk. But they can’t stay in the safety of the caves forever. The flood waters have receded and it’s time to join the rest of the tribe...   

While traveling, their group meets a familiar face from Arruk’s past - a man half feral and covered in vicious scars. Something about him draws Lily in, despite those who already hold her heart. But that isn’t her biggest concern.  

Can Lily keep the Tribe Mother from discovering just how much being with her has changed her new mates? Will the tribe accept her, a stranger in their lands? Or will Lily have to fight the very people who were supposed to offer her safety and a home? 

Note: This is a full length novel, is not a stand-alone, and ends on a slight cliffhanger.

I still love this series.

I have the first 3 ebooks of this series and have reread them several times already. I am in great anticipation for the 4th book and will get both the ebook as well as the Audio version as soon as they become available.

I simply enjoy the way Stacy Jones wrote Lily's character. Her attitude towards her situation seems to be realistic in my opinion. Well as realistic as a fictional character in a fictional situation can be. I find the character's way of readily adapting her way of thinking in accordance with her circumstances so much more refreshing than all those sci-fi romances where the main character finds herself in another galaxy yet still expects the beings to think and behave the way humans would. No. These characters as alien as they may seem are mature in the way they are written which makes it a very enjoyable read for this avid reader who abhors angst. There are lots of sexy times but not overly so.

The narration is spot on as well. As soon as the book begins, you forget that you are listening to the story. The narrator seamlessly brings all the characters to life.

All in all a very enjoyable read and listen.

I hate titles

This is part of a series that must be read in its entirety, in order. And I don't just mean that each book is not a standalone. I mean, there's no real ending to any of these books. The author originally wrote a trilogy (re: 1 book with 2 random breaks), but there are STILL loose ends (HUGE ones) at the end of the 3rd. Then she wrote a 4th book based on a dream she had which STILL didn't resolve the loose ends.

Yet, despite this, I still rated the 1st and 3rd books as 4 stars. These heros are my jam: unwanted, unloved, dejected and under the impression they have nothing to offer a mate. Lily is able to draw them out and give them each a chance to be their best away from their ultra-judgy tribe mates.

Yes, this is a reverse harem. The first book introduces the world and our 3 main heroes. The second and 3rd bring in a 4th male and the 4th book brings in a 5th. For some reason it was easy to accept the 3 original husbands, but just weirded me out to add more one at a time. The complete opposite of most alien romances where the Hero is overly possessive.

I understand the author will be continuing this universe, which is awesome because we still don't know much about the fish a$$holes who stole her in the first place, nor the wolfman who seems to be trying to kill the Shevarii.

If you just consider the romance, it's completely swoony and adorable and I reread parts just for that.

Wonderful

I love all the details the author puts in. It makes you feel like your there experiencing it yourself.

Love this series

great narrators that really bring the book to life! can't wait until the next book out available!

Continuation of a great read and story
