I love both of these authors on their own so when I saw they were writing a book together I knew I had to get my hands on it. I was not disappointed as we are dropped into a world that has been taken over by aliens. Ella is a human female that is just trying to survive in this world barely living paycheck to paycheck. Her BFF is extremely selfish and her boss is words too bad to really put here. Her life changes though when three of the aliens start stalking her until they finally kidnap her after she tries to run away. What follows is one interesting dynamic to say the least full of twists and danger you could never guess is coming. Well built world full of characters that draw you in. Does have a slightly dark theme to it for those that do not like that kind of thing. Book two is going to be fantastic!!! I totally loved it so I give it 5/5 stars.
The heroine is kind of mild mannered. She takes everything. She spent so much time blacked out sheez. Derrial is neglectful. He seems too busy to bother with her much. We still don’t know what their status is in the society. She knows next to nothing about them. I just don’t understand why these things were not corrected. I’m annoyed. Not my favorite it’s just ok.
Bound: The Fallen World Series Book 1
by C.R. Jane & Mila Young 4 Stars
******** May Contain Some Spoilers ********
I will try my absolute best to keep spoilers to a minimum or completely out of my review. Sometimes it can be hard to do so.
I have read a few alien invasion of Earth , they are pretty much the same. Dark themes and brutal sex. I have to be honest, C.R. & Mila did not follow any of those themes. This is a totally different storyline. I absolutely loved it.
Ella is special but not for the reasons she was told. The alien race known as Vepar has invaded Earth . Ella somehow catches the interest of 3 Vepar. They are sexy and they want her. Thane, Derrial, & Corran will do anything to get Ella, even kidnapping. Ella starts to have high emotions for these aliens/men. They her she is special cause she can bond with them. She finds out that is not the whole truth. This book ends with a cliffhanger.
•••••• I highly recommend this book/series! ••••••
~~ I have Kindle Unlimited, and I used that service to read this book. ~~
When this book was announced, I was intrigued, as it’s not a co-authorship I would have put together. I’ve not read much from either author, but they do seem to have distinctly different styles (to me, anyway). The result was a hot, angsty(ish) read that drew from the best of both authors’ skills.
Aliens aren’t normally my thing. I’ve read a couple, and they were okay, but I could never really get into them. Not really. Even though I’ve read things I really could get into from both authors, I was still about reserved about this one. But I’d just finished a bully read, was suffering a serious book hangover, and wanted something on the darker side that, and I hate to put this way, I wasn’t already invested in and expecting great things from. I’m so glad I picked this up. It was a brilliant read, although it’s now another series that I’m invested in.
Ella is a darker character. She hasn’t had things easy, but she did rub me a little wrong at first. I tend to like stronger main characters, and initially, I felt that she’s quite passive, whiny and almost deliberately ignorant about those things taking place around her in the wider world because she has a little of a “woe is me” attitude. She would just let things happen to her and lament it. I know, I’m doing such a good job of selling this; stay with me here. I would argue that much of her attitude stems from unresolved grief, so I’m willing to cut her some slack. Towards the middle/end of the book, I feel that she started to find herself, and I’m hoping that’s going to become a bigger proponent of the books going forward. She meets these aliens who are used to having everyone faun over them and fall at their feet, and Ella’s not that person. Granted, some of Ella’s backbone on this point stems from fear, credit it to her that she doesn’t just fall in line. That was where I started to like Ella more as a character. She finds herself in this world that she knows nothing about (although that’s a little bit of her own fault, but not totally), and she fights back, in her own way anyway, against these aliens. This book is a fast-burner and the chemistry and scenes in this book are incredibly hot and sexy.
If you’re someone who hates a cliffie, I have bad news for you. Total cliffie. Huge cliffie. BUT, I would say it’s still worth the read, and the second book has already been announced by the authors, so it’s something to look forward to.
Not sure where to start besides saying OMG!!!! This book has it all. Mystery, intrigue, sexy men aliens…. what more could you ask for? Our girl Ella is just trying to make her own way in the new world after the Vepars come to Earth. She tries not to think about them, except to stay off their radar. Then on her Birthday, she meets not 1, but 3 and her life is never going to be the same again.
The Vepars have layers upon layers of mystery surrounding them that I can’t wait to learn more about.
Hot hot hot. I mean seriously this girl has 3 super hot aliens pretty much begging her to be with them. My favorite is thane there is just something about him that makes me need to fan myself. This book is amazing and the characters are awesome, it flows so smooth and sucks you in. I cant wait for the next one.

I love sci-fi alien romances and with the fact that this one is a reverse harem makes it even better in my opinion. The characters and world building are amazing and the storyline just pulls you right in. There is action, suspense and romance between Ella and the Vepar men, enough that Ella’s emotions are all over the place. I can not wait to read the next book in this series.
Darkish. Sci-fi. Alien Invasion. Rh. 3 Aliens. Invasion/abduction. It was a bit slow till halfway through. Mostly because they had to get the low down on the aliens and the Earths status. But once that was all out, it was pretty awesome. Seems like it’s going to be a bit of angsty mystery going on. The males are really Alpha. The story line is definitely intriguing. Ends on a cliffhanger.
