The General was demoted on his planet also. He is the Uncle of the Emperor . But the Emperor is very cruel. The General finally captures the human commander . This is a series that needs to be read.

Loved every word. One of the more original space / alien stories. Great charachter evolution. Good guys - bad guys and interesting ideas. Some romance but only as a side to the story ; no blatent sex  just for the sake of having sex in the book. This is a fairly long book but at least it was the complete book. I don't like having to keep getting more books to find out what happens to the story line. I would read future stories by this author. If he wrote more about the people we got to know and love in this book I know I'd love that book too.

The Princess by Ariel MacArran was wonderful. It's mostly science fiction romance with plenty of action thrown in for good measure. I really enjoyed it. Liri was my favorite character and I loved her backstory. Now, I have to read the rest of the series. lol! Highly recommend!

Disclaimer: I borrowed it from my best friend.

My Rating: 4.5 stars

Wonderful characters and plot.  Handsome male aliens finding their fated mates.  Feisty human females that make them work at winning their hearts.

Beautifully written! The guy is fantastic, having a bit of an awkward persona and it lends beautifully to the romantic relations with his girl, who, of course, is brash, bold and totally unaware of his interest in her.  Add a bit of space adventure and it really makes for a well balanced alien/sci-fi/romance. Would definitely read again!

I admit, I'm hooked.  I love that most of this is based out of the Tampa area, where I live.  I love that these aliens are all different, that the women that they fall for are all shapes, sizes, colors and personality types.  If you like romance with a side of sci-fi, this is definitely the series for you!

I just discovered this author.  The Challenge is the first in a series of great romance sci-fi.  The heroine Tessa, is a Secret Service agent who has been called by her country (of the future) to participate in an intergalactic `challenge' to determine if Earth is worthy of joining a galax-wider Federation of planets.  She is trained by a giant warrior from an ice covered planet named Kahn.

Kahn's training methods, are uhm.... shall we say unconventional?  This is the giggling part - his training  forces Tessa to learn to use her unknown psi abilities, by ummmm..... torturing and frustrating her sexually until she `discovers' her psi abilities.  Guess how he frustrates her?

SMALL SPOILER:
Tessa escapes the brute, and after being recaptured, is informed she has signed her and Earth's death warrant (and messed Kahn's planet's future too) by stealing a spaceship.  Her only option is to........ (grins!) Marry sexy Kahn!  That's right, no court hearings, or administrative dispensations, just death or marriage.  Hummmm......

Tessa turns out to be the salvation of both Earth and Kahn's home world both financially, and by achieving success at the challenge.  She makes business decisions that affect the entire Federation, and change the face of their trading routes for centuries.

COOL STUFF:
The world Kearney has developed is fascinating!  I loved the `suits' that the people had to learn to use with their psi.  They controlled every bodily function, and acted as an endless wardrobe.  Plus, they would allow the wearer to move and/or fight at the speed of thought, and made gravity an optional rule to follow.

The romance between two completely different creatures (culturally speaking )was amusing, as they learned to at first tolerate their marriage, then cherish it and each other.

Plus there are several sequels, that I'm diving in and luvvvingggg!!!

Yeah for sci-fi romance!

Gerri and the Paranormal Dating Agency are at it again.  This time they are matching an alien jaguar shifter with a beautiful, curvaceous woman who just always seems to pick the right man.  Loved this book because I got to return to an alien planet see and hear about old friends I got to know in earlier novels. There's romance, action, suspense, sci-fi and more in this story.  I read it in one setting. Yes it is that good!

I was gifted this book for an honest review.

The Alien General's Fated is a true SciFi story.  If you're looking for gratuitous sex, don't look here.  There is romance, and some really scorching scenes, but overall this is a SciFi adventure.  Works for me!

Aria is an engineer, she's smart and she is brave.  At first she has no respect for the Brion general who comes to protect her Galactic Union headquarters.  Ryden is a newly minted Brion General, but he's been mentored by General Hagen for years.  Is it enough to prepare him for this enormous battle with the Clayors and the Galactic Union Council?

5 Birght Shining Stars!

Received through NetGalley for an honest review.

Alien romance with some interesting twists. The beginning started of okay but as I read the book it kept getting better. The story could of stopped at several spots but instead kept going. We got to learn more about the characters and got a great story in the end. Can't wait to read the next story.

I love the blending of science fiction and romance. It's one of my favorite subgenres, but it's just not as popular as its cousins, paranormal and time-travel. So, when I find a new series of scifi romance that can blend the best of scifi and a sexy romance I sit up and take notice. If you're the same way you are going to love FORTUNE'S HERO.

While I wouldn't quite compare Quinn Conlan to Han Solo, scifi fans who love the hero with a questionable sense of morality will like him from the start. He's taken some stomach turning torture as the story opens and still hasn't betrayed the secrets he's holding even though it's of no real personal benefit to him to keep mum. When the opportunity to escape the Rhenian prison he's stuck in on Marica-3 pops up, he doesn't hesitate to take the med tech in the room hostage. Elsa's been doing her duty as a Rhenian, working under her mentor torturing information out of useful prisoners when Quinn kidnaps her. They're so opposite there's no way an uptight Rhenian could ever fall for a scoundrel like Captain Conlan.

Therein lies a great premise for a tense adventure in the wasteland beyond the prison. The hostile landscape leaves little chance for survival beyond the walls and Quinn refuses to leave his crew behind to rot. But being thrown together by circumstance and facing certain death no matter what they do finds chemistry burning between them but trust isn't so quick to follow.

Gah! I couldn't believe this clocked in at more than 350 pages because it flew by. There were moments when even I wasn't sure they'd live long enough to rescue the crew and had to remind myself that it's a romance and the formula of romance demands a HEA ending. Without that I'm pretty sure I'd have lost hope. Bennett really rakes Elsa and Quinn over the coals and then some. If you like romances where the hero and heroine face life-or-death circumstances to get to their HEA then you will be greatly rewarded with FORTUNE'S HERO.

Scifi romance lovers this is definitely not one to be missed! The series is looking to be really good as whole and I'm super excited to get my hands on the next Soldier's of Fortune book, FORTUNE'S HONOR, hopefully sometime later this year.

This was an interesting alien romance story. MS. Cummings gives us new imaginative worlds to visit. The characters, Glib and Vera are believable. I really enjoyed their adventure while watching them try not to fall in love with each other. You'll enjoy this romance story. I received this book free for my review.

Here we have another great Sci-Fi romance by Lisa Lace. She delivers every time and keeps you turning the pages. I didn't want to put this book down, and even though I regretted staying awake to get it finished, it was worth it, as this is a great series and one I would definitely recommend to those of you who love Sci-Fi romance

This has been my favorite so far.......I am reading them out of order, which fortunately works fine. I love alien stories and this series has an interesting concept that puts the Earth women with their mates. The writing is hot and steamy with an enjoyable story to go with it. I am anxious to continue on in the series.

After aliens made contact some years ago and brought along with them the cure for cancer as a peace offering to humans, the two races have been working on an alliance. Cara Sweeny is all for it, the cure saved her mother after all, but when they tell her shes going to be living with one of the Leihrs exchange students things get complicated fast. Her Leihr couldn't be more alien if he triedrobotic, with a superiority complex that may or may not be warranted, and too beautiful for words.

Melissa Landers debuts into the YA with a full on humorous teen voice and a unique story! Alienated surprised me with its fully fleshed world building of the Leihr civilizationeverything from what they ate, their language, unique ways of communication, social and systems, climate and flora of their world, and much more. I also liked the alien namesAelyx, Eron, Syrine, Elyxa, Stephabecause they looked and sounded alien, yet not over the top.

The reaction humans had to everything (protests, riots, murders) was very realistic. After all, humans fear everything that is unknown and many would become specieist jerks if aliens ever made contact. I did think things slowed down a bit much in the middle of the book. There was the hate mail and threats in school, but nothing actually came to pass until we got closer to the ending. But Im getting ahead of myself.

Cara was a fun heroine to follow. She is intense, isn't afraid to go after what she wants, and is really good at debates. Caras blogAlienated: Your exclusive source for close encounters of the nerd kindwas a nice touch and served to provide the reader with more information about the Leihr. In contrast, Aelyx scenes were wrapped up in mystery and conflict. Hes planning something with Eron and Syrine, and that something isn't very nice. So, I was kind of torn between liking his alieness and hating his quick dismissal of the human race.

The development of Cara and Aelyx relationship worked pretty well. It might have been a bit instaloveish on Aelyxs part, since its only two times of them being friendly before he remarks on his sudden interest for her. But I saw it as natural, because hes never experienced this sort of thing before. So, okay. Clara was doing amazingly well too, even during their physical attraction test that left me a feeling a few degrees hotter than normal. Cara was left excited, but calm and collected, thinking things rationally about how Aelyx would eventually leave and she would be heartbroken. But then I turn the page and its like Im reading about a completely different character who is acting like a bimbo, spouting things like she was pretty sure they were a couple now. Excuse me, WHAT? Then, of course, we get all the drama about him ignoring her and I was just like, this is not the story I was reading five minutes ago. The whole thing was just weird, because after that Cara got back to normal, even telling Aelyx she wasn't going to be his intergalactic booty call which was just hilarious. But I got whiplash from going to serious, to silly, to serious again.

The ending was quite a thrill and I was surprised by the outcome. It certainly paves the way for an exciting sequel and, by the skill she has shown in this book, I know Landers can pull it off. Cant wait to see where Cara and Aelyxs story will go next! I mean, I know where they will go, but what will happen there? How will they survive? And can the triangle plz plz plz not happen?
