Welcome to Luxiria, where the twin suns are hot and the alien warriors are hotter… their prize: human pleasure mates. Even worse? She realizes she’s one of them.
Vaxa’an, the Prime Leader of Luxiria, has a duty to his warrior species: continue their race. Infamously ruthless and deadly, the Luxirian knows he’ll have no trouble claiming a Breeder at the Pit. What he doesn’t expect to find is his fated mate, with her lush curves and tempting body. And he will stop at nothing to claim her.
When Kate becomes the warrior alpha’s prize, her only goal is getting back to the life she was taken from. Certainly not to fall for the sexy, overbearing barbarian with a wicked tongue, who is determined to make her his own…
Features a curvy, stubborn human female and a seven-foot tall hot alien with a dirty mouth and an impossibly large (-ahem-) package that does deliciously interesting things. Full-length 55,000+ word Sci-Fi Romance novel!

Wonderful SFR book by an author who’s writing I enjoy very much. I liked these characters and how they worked through their issues. I love how Draven writes heroes. Great book.
Loved this story. I enjoy reading good alien live story’s, especially ones with language barriers. Hilarious how they try to communicate with each other. This book has romance, drama; alpha sexy alien and humor. A must read. Great plot. Live all the characters. Can’t wait for the next book.
I voluntarily reviewed this advance reader copy of this book.
Scifi is not normally my go to genre but having read her other series I figured I enjoyed her writing so much I’d give this a try and I’m so glad I did.
Whilst it took a little getting used to I must confess I enjoyed the heck out of this one!. I love the unique world building and character development in her stories. There’s no unnecessary angst or drama and it’s not this super drawn out push and pull game either between the hero and heroine. Both characters are very likeable and despite the circumstances have immediate chemistry.
Kate unexpectedly finds herself chained up, stripped bare and in what’s seems to be an alien planet.. it’s safe to say her patience was short and her fear loud. Even still she stood strong and fought back. I loved that she was feisty but also understanding and willing to listen. She was the perfect balance and suited Vaxa’an perfectly.
Vaxa’an bless his heart did not have a clue how to deal with what he assumed was a weak race. He had a shock with his feisty mate, that is for sure. I loved that despite the power he held, he did not once try to control her. He was strong and sweet.. and totally at ease with showing her his vulnerable side. He was also just an all-round overachiever at everything.
I loved these two and what their mating means for the future of that world. I loved the whole concept of this story and world. It’s a sweet love story with a quirky mixture of humour and uncertainty. I felt the connection between the characters and was rooting for them from the beginning because that chemistry was palpable. I am so excited to see what comes next for them in book two because this book ended in a happy for now ending. Not quite a cliffhanger but also not finished. I’m glad because I wasn’t ready for them to be finished just yet. Now onto the next!! I’m excited to see where it takes me.
I enjoyed Kate and Vaxa’s story it was charming and incredibly hot.
Here Kate awakens to a new reality kidnapped by Aliens and potentially a future as a slave.
Kate is offered up as a prize in the Pitt and Vaxa a luxirian and prime leader on his planet is here to compete for a breeder.
The female population of his race has been decimated by a virus and the remaining woman are now infertile.
It’s a fight to the death which he of course wins but rather than getting himself a breeder his instinct recognises Kate as his Luxiva his fated mate.
So this isn’t a long read it’s a bit instalove in nature and the sex sciences here are incredibly graphic and hot.
It’s not really a complicated story but it was enjoyable and if your after something that’s isn’t really angsty just with lots of feel-good vibes this is the story for you.
This ends in a HFN and Kate and Vaxa’s story is concluded in the next book.
Though technically you could actually stop here as this did give you closure and the next book is more of a continuation of the resolved story and there is no cliffhanger, Overall this was an easy light quick read.

I started with her Horde king series, and then made my way over to this series. I enjoyed the book thoroughly, and I know I’ll be picking up more of her books.
Everything was well put together and the characters drew me in. Romance, angst, and thrill. I always enjoy a “pit” scenario, and wished the “pit” scene was a bit longer, but it didn’t detract from the story. Kate and Vaxa’an were a great couple that kept me reading until the end, and Vaxa’an ended up being quite the sweetheart, in my mind. And the sexy scenes were hot! Super hot! I’m hoping the rest of the women left at the “pit” will get their own stories.

Trying to get thru the others,…lol. great work.
Great series
Good read and different. Enjoyed it.
If you like just a fun easy read with romance & new fun imaginative sci-fi reading you will enjoy this series of books.
I enjoyed the world building and I am curious to see where the series goes from here. Kate is kidnapped from Chicago and finds herself naked and chained to many women that are offered as prizes in a gladiatorial style arena. Vaxa is prime leader of his race and has entered the tournament to win a breeder, as a virus decimated the females of his race and left the remaining women infertile. When he sees Kate he knows she’s his fated mate and nothing will keep him from her. They must overcome language barriers and being from totally different races not to mention Kate’s desire to return home. I am already reading book 2 of the series the alien’s mate.
I already have purchased another in the series, even though it wasn’t .99 cents. I rarely do this but have thoroughly enjoyed these books and look forward to reading others by this author
A great read
I enjoyed this book. There characters were entertaining to read about. I like how there is some breadcrumbs in there that I know will lead to future books. Can’t wait to read what happens to Vaxa and Kate next after reading that ending
Great read!
An intricate and absorbing story, and what a fantastic beginning! I am hooked! This storyline is interesting and held my interest from start to finish. The action was steady, the emotions were realistic and the characters were sympathetic. The writing was technically clean and also beautifully dirty. I can hardly wait to read the next story and see what happens next!!
Oh my GOSH! 5 LARGE BRIGHT STARS!!!
This was great! I downloaded it right away after a particularly long day at work! I know it sounds strange, but it was SUCH a good way to relax!
I loved the story line – Kate was a strong character, kept her wits about her when she was kidnapped, realizing if she fell apart she would have less hope of surviving. She was no whimpering, weak female! And Vaxa’an was a strong leader but after they were better acquainted, treated her with respect, listening intently when Kate spoke of her concerns about how others were treated, for example.
The story flowed very well, not too slow nor too fast. It felt very “evenly paced”. The main characters were developed well so that as the story went along, you could understand why they were reacting as they did. And the timing seemed right for their romance to develop – not too rushed even though Vaxa’an was very eager. And, of course, the sex was VERY HOT…
I absolutely loved this and CAN’T WAIT to read more about Kate and Vaxa’an in the sequel!
The author provided me with an ARC however, this is my own honest voluntary review, always.
