Three weeks ago, an alien species called the Vitat, invaded the earth. They broke through the earth’s atmosphere and decimated the human population in moments. Their goal? Nothing but destruction and to feed their endless appetites. Their hive queen orbits earth in their warship, waiting until her hive have taken over the planet and she can consume earth’s sun to grow her massive hive. But the …
But the humans are not alone in their fight to regain control of their planet. Another alien species, the Dahk, have come to their aid by order of their king. But what Fihk, the Dahk acting commander, is unaware of, is that his king had his own agenda regarding the humans survival. As does the Galactic Council. The humans are not only in danger of the carnivorous Vitat, but also a council of several alien species dedicated in their endeavor to enslave them. Fihk’s own council and the Juldo Master at the helm.
As the humans try to fight back and survive one invasion, another is already underway.
Bailey
Every minute of everyday is now a struggle to survive. Just one minute to the next. My brother is my only concern. His safety is everything to me. But aliens are making that an impossible task. Not one species, but two. The white aliens just want to gnaw on us, but the new aliens, the Dahk, want something different. Specifically, two of them. Olynth can’t stand me but can’t let me go either, and Fihk, he’s made it clear Nate and I are to help him no matter that all I want to do is escape them. I can’t trust them. They want things from me I can’t give them. Survival is the only thing that matters, even if I have to go through an entire universe of species’ to get it. Even my own.
This story is a standalone romance, with a slight reverse harem m/f/m set up, but it is recommended that you read Pythen and Home World first. Both of which are a pair featuring a different couple, m/f, than War For Earth. In War For Earth, the underlying plot is a continuation from the first in the series, Pythen, and will continue on throughout the series.
Warning. For readers 18 years and older. Contains explicit sexual situations, possible triggers, dark themes, and violence.

This is the third book in this series I actually decided to start from the beginning with this to refresh my brain so I reread book one and two to fully appreciate this one.
This fills in the blanks that were left when Tahk took Peyton off to Home World.
Tahk left Fihk behind on earth as acting commander in his stead.
His mission to impede the vitat invasion in whatever way he can whilst Tahk tries to get permission from the galactic council to interfere in the human invasion.
He also promised to locate Peyton’s mother Linda to repay a debt he feels he owes.
His task is not an easy one the humans are suspicious and hostile when it comes to the Dahk and there’s also rebellion brewing amongst their own species.
Whilst going recon on the planet surface Fihk and his team run into Bailey and her brother Nate, the former just trying to keep them both alive the best she can.
Bailey is initially sceptical and suspicious when it comes to these new aliens and that’s without all the sniffing and biting that just makes her even more skittish around them.
We learned in previous books all about the special bond of Pythe and Pythen well baileys hit the motherload here with two of these intense connections.
First, we have Olynth who because of past trauma and his iron control is able to hold back the mating rage he knows just who Bailey is to him but refuses initially to solidify this connection instead just watching over Bailey and keeping her safe.
Then Fihk is also affected and goes into a full-blown psycho mating rage with only one way out.
What I liked here was the struggle both males had initially with their instincts and jealousy’s it wasn’t an easy acceptance they never made her choose they just had to get there on their own terms and thankfully they both did.
Both males provide something very different for their mate and she loves them both equally.
So for clarification, there’s no M/M here and this was mostly one on one sessions and near the end, they come together to both pleasure Bailey on a couple of occasions but this is all about their mate and she’s the focus of it all and also their entire world.
This was a sexy hot read with plenty of chemistry Olynth is a beast between the sheets he’s all dominant control which included bondage and lots of growly orders.
Fihk has a much sweeter vibe but is still equally male and together they are protective and very possessive over their new mate.
Bailey and her brother are both foster kids and each other’s chosen family and as such Bailey doesn’t give her trust easily.
She’s defensive prickly and used to taking care of herself her priority is Nate and she like a ferocious mother bear when it comes to him.
Both Olynth and Fihk definitely had their work cut out in winning her over but their actions do speak louder than words.
This was action-packed very hot and a great addition to the series.
This is well written and the world-building is fabulous I’m incredibly excited to see where this series goes next.
Definitely recommend this series it’s one of my favourites.

Here’s the thing. I expected to absolutely hate this book. Knowing it was a reverse harem, my biggest book pet peeve, I went into it annoyed that the author would have this theme in the middle of the series. Being a completionist when it comes to books and series I soldiered through it and now having finished the book I got to admit that it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I didn’t love it, but I didn’t hate it either.
It was actually probably a good thing I went into it with the worst expectations, because it made me more susceptible and blown away by the things in the story that was working really well, the drama and conflicts being that. It also helped that it was first only one male drawn to her, making me only have to deal with one relationship at a time and not two crammed together. It built up nicely with some tenseness and struggles. However, when one relationship did become two it also added a little drama and jealousy that I enjoyed, but that is pretty much the only thing I enjoyed after that point about the romance. All three characters got over their issues with the the two way bond way too easily and quickly and after that their acceptance and enjoyment of the threesome just felt too unrealistic and too ridiculous for me to find any liking to it.
I can’t blame it all on the reverse harem either. No matter how I tried to get behind Bailey I couldn’t. She was way too selfish and self absorbed for me to like her. Her only good quality was her compassion and caring for her brother. That was the only time I felt that I got to see some humanity from her. Otherwise she just came across as rude and overly entitled. Sure, she had trust issues because of her upbringing, but mistrust and bitchyness doesn’t and shouldn’t necessarily go hand in hand. While I did enjoy the struggles that brought at some points in the story it also made the relationship at some moments ugly to me. Because the picture I got from the story was that she was pretty much top dog in the relationship and the guys were almost like servants, doing and being anything they could for her. Although the story had moments where it showed equality between the three and even her bending to their own wills, those were far and few between.
If there is one good thing that came out of reading this it is that I am more accepting of reverse harem. Not so much that I enjoy or even like the genre now, but it certainly wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be and it is always good to try new things, right? Although, I wish that the author hadn’t chosen to put it in the middle of a series. In a way it is forcing us readers who enjoy the series to read something many of us dislikes. Her work is of course her own so she is free to do whatever she likes with it, but if she likes to try a new genre that is so controversial (for lack of better word) I and probably many others would prefer she made it a stand alone or a new series instead. Now, I wouldn’t go so far as to say I hated the three bonds romance. There were moments I enjoyed, but in all I had difficulty with it. Not as much as I expected to in the beginning, it could have been worse after all, and that is probably why I feel a bit more lenient with the rating. The whole conflict on earth and the tenseness between aliens and humans helped me enjoy the story as well and I am curious to see how the whole galactic order and human conflict will be resolved.
Wow!
This book was action packed. I Love the heroine and the hero’s. I’m don’t really care for ménage. The secondary characters Nathan, Linda, Nick, Star, Gunner, etc we’re so interesting. I have binge read this series and I don’t think I can stop until I finish it. I m starting to want Chins story. I highly recommend this series
