Book Review: Alien Claimed by Julie K. Cohen

 

Book Description

The blue horned alien says he won’t touch me. What if I want him to?

Ivy
Earth wasn’t exactly paradise, not since the Coalition took control, but it was home... until Ivy’s brother shoved her on an alien ship to be a mail-order bride. The truth be told, she is better off without the murderous psycho, but that doesn’t mean she wanted to be thrust into the universe, totally unprepared, and she certainly won’t marry some horned alien.

She’ll make her own way back to Earth and stay far away from her brother and his criminal ties. Nothing will change her mind. Not even a tall, sweet, protective warrior who makes human males look like boys and the universe look much more appealing than she ever thought possible.

Quinnov
Quinnov’s alone in the universe. Except for his planet... war torn, burned out Zyan. No one in his family survived the war, except maybe his older brother Jaizon. Quinnov’s been searching for him since the war ended. But when he crosses paths with his heartmate, his priorities shift. To keep her safe from those hunting her, he may have to return her to her world, even though she makes his heart soar and both of his cocks harden.



My Review

After Ivy is forced to leave Earth because her brother gave her no choice but to get on the ship and sold her as an alien bride to an alien, she's not very trusting anymore. She escapes the ship and her intended  mate and is free on an alien planet but the males there seem to be just as bad as all the other's she encountered until she comes across Quinnov. 

Quinnov is a big blue alien with horns and he seems to want to help her get to safety because she's not safe where she's at. He finds out what is really going on with her and wants to help but the bad guys are going to be after both of them if he does. Quinnov starts to feel protective of her but he thinks he can't keep her with him because what he's doing is dangerous and doesn't want to put her in danger. 

They quickly realize that they don't want to part ways but things get in their way and make their relationship difficult. Quinnov is looking for his brother after most of his family is killed by the same alien invaders who have taken over Earth and it's going to be dangerous. 

Even with the difficulties they had I really liked both of these characters. Quinnov was such a nice guy and Ivy was competent. When she found herself in a situation, she found a way to get out of it. This was a good read. These two were different from each other but were so good for one another. 

I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
