Book Description
London
Life has sure kicked me in the teeth. After I’m arrested for stealing, I’m given two choices: prison or get shipped to the human settlement on the planet Tavikh. Since orange isn’t my color, I guess off-planet it is.
Except when our ship lands we’re attacked by vicious aliens no one warned us about. I’m suddenly rethinking my decision. Just as I swear I’m about to die, a towering alien with long, flowing golden hair and muscles rippling beneath gorgeous purple skin saves me.
When the battle is over and the good guys seem to have won, my savior tells me I’m his fated mate.
I hate to break it to him, but I don’t believe in fate.
Zander
As shefir of the Tavikhi, it’s my duty to lead our tribe and fight against the Krijese. When word comes that another Terran ship has arrived, we rush to defend them against our brutal enemies.
I’m unprepared, though, for my mating marks to burn and brighten in color when I rescue one of the human females. Is it truly possible that the goddess, Deeka, has chosen her as my keeshla—my fated mate?
Despite her continued denial of the mate bond, the attraction between us flares hotter than our sun. I must do everything to convince her that we are fated to be together. Even seduce her.
My Review
After London gets caught stealing, she's given a choice to go to a human settlement on an alien planet or go to prison. Who wouldn't take the chance to move to an alien planet? But the humans who are sent there aren't told that aliens are already living there or that there's another warring alien race of beasts that are killing and taking some of the humans for whatever reason. So when London's ship arrives, she and her new friends from the ship are attacked right away but thankfully Zander and his people are there to lend a helping hand with the beasts and save most of the new people.
Planet Tavikhi is not the peaceful planet that London thought it would be. She doesn't even get a small house to live in, she is given a tent to set up. Life is nothing like what she thought it would be and there's no going back to Earth.
After Zander who is the leader of the village of aliens who saved the humans, meets London he knows she is his mate because his mate markings light up. He wasn't expecting his mate to be a human but he's not opposed to the idea either. Now if he could only make her believe that she's his mate so he can keep her safe and make her happy.
After the beasts attack the human settlement once again, Zander knows he has to help them and offers to teach them how to fight to keep themselves safe. He also offers sanctuary to anyone who wants to come back to his village to live.
I loved Zander, he was so sweet and so patient with London as she came to grips with her new reality and love interest. Not only is Zander muscled, tall and purple, he has a tail! If you've read any alien romance where the male has a tail, you already know why that's fun. *smirk* I'm looking forward to reading more of this series now.
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
I obviously need to read more widely. The tail thing passed me by...
ReplyDeleteOh, lol. It just means that he can move his tail and use it as a sexual appendage.
DeleteI seriously doubt aliens would look like that LOL
ReplyDeleteBut wouldn't it be nice if they did and had a tail? lol
DeleteGlad you enjoyed
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteThe purple people eater sounds like a fun dude!
ReplyDeleteOh he was fun alright.
DeleteAlien planet or prison... hmm, I'd take door #1, too. Sounds like a fun sci-fi romance adventure.
ReplyDeleteSo would I.
DeleteHaha, I'm with Elephant's Child on this one!
ReplyDeleteLOL He can use his tail to um, please her.
DeleteCool, a purple alien. I have a book coming up that has a green one and a yellow one.
ReplyDeletesherry @ fundinmental
I love the aliens.
DeleteOh those hot aliens
ReplyDeleteI do love a good alien romance.
DeleteUsually I stay far away from books like this but there is something, umm, appealing about a well muscled purple alien with golden hair and a tail whose mating marks are burning just for me. Now, should I go commit a crime or should I just read the book? Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteHa! Go read the book.
DeleteThat plot sounds vaguely familiar. I haven't read this one, but I've read a few that cover similar tropes.
ReplyDeleteYeah the alien romance books seem to have this kind of theme a lot of times.
DeleteSounds like a rough landing! Glad to hear the story was a fun one!
ReplyDeleteIt definitely was a fun one.
DeletePrison for stealing? Woah! Glad you enjoyed the read!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
