Book Review: Alien's Captive by Tina Moss
Book Description
All I’ve wanted since my abduction from Earth’s first long-range space flight is freedom from my alien captives. But when I’m sold off to a Rhonar warrior, I learn I'm not the only one enslaved on this hellish planet, and survival comes at a cost.
The commanding alien they call Xelan may be in charge, but his fair dealings—and devilishly sexy charms—give me hope for the future.
If I can strike an agreement with the battle-scarred warrior, perhaps together we can change the destiny of those bound in chains.
And if I can’t—well, I haven’t backed down from a fight yet.
However, as enemies line up to destroy the alien warriors and subjugate the galaxy, I discover that the universe has a sense of humor.
Fated mates are real. And Xelan declares me his.
How can I attain my freedom if I’m tied to another being? Even if his possessive growls and single-minded attention ignite my desires in ways I’ve only dreamed, I cannot be his.
But how long can I fight the pull of a mating bond before I lose my head—and my heart—to the heat burning between us?
Only the stars know.
My Review
Xelan is trying to find a way to stop the slave trade and help the slaves find their freedom but there's a lot to do. On his mission he comes across a small human female who's sad eyes call to him. He sets out to free her by buying her and lets the slaver know this. But by the time he comes back for her, the slaver has tortured her and she's in bad shape. Xelan wants to take his anger out on the slaver but if he does his mission would be compromised so he has to wait to get his revenge for her.
After rescuing her and she finds out that he really is one of the good guys, she starts to trust him more and he realizes that she's his mate which is startling but gives him and his people hope for the future since the females from him planet have all been wiped out.
I liked that along the way they found others who are trying to stop the slavers as well and I hope to see more of them in the future. Some of the aliens they encounter in this story are big and scary but some are small and cute and I loved all the different descriptions of the different aliens.
These two really are completely different but they made it work over time.
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
