Great book for the genre. Even more spunky heroine than normal, a no wuss hero, and good tension between them. All set in an intergalactic war, keeping it interesting.
Always love anything by Grace Goodman
Grace cannot write these fast enough. I am in love with this series and always waiting for the next one. Characters are great mix of strong and vulnerable and always get the girl the plots with the bad guys add the suspense that’s makes these action packed like a action movie with some romance nice balance
For once we have a hero who isn’t a control-obsessed brute.
Some authors have difficulty keeping a long running series from becoming redundant, but not Ms Goodwin! Grace Goodwin keeps her Interstellar Brides series fresh and engaging by creating complex characters from all walks of life and all worlds. Warlord Nyco and Megan Simmons are not your regular military couple. Their backgrounds and family history are integral to who they are as soldiers and mates. Well done Ms Goodwin and I look forward to the next in the series!
Completely formulaic. While I hate giving bad reviews, this reads like a ‘fill in the blanks alien/human romance. She’s a “curvy” lethal warrior, he isn’t curvy but bulges in all the right places, they fight bad guys; they win; and move on to just rewards.
Even the sex is ho-hum, or I am just jaded by all the overly graphic sex scenes in these alien/human novels today. Don’t get me wrong, I’m no prude, but I am creative enough to think that throwing in formally forbidden words and describing sex as if observing a lab experiment just isn’t sexy, romantic or appealing.
If that’s your thing, you’ll probably enjoy this.
If you have more discerning taste, move on. There is so much more out there that is fulfilling and not a waste of time you’ll never get back.
Another fantastic installment in the Interstellar Bride Series. This is the third Atlan Warrior and I have to admit that Atlans are my favorites. This book has more story than $ex and I actually, like it better this way.
Megan is from a military family and joined the Coalition to hopefully, finally make her mom proud of her but didn’t expect it would happen. Two days away from the end of her 2 year enlistment and she has decided that she won’t be returning to Earth and will instead become an Interstellar Bride and have a family of her own to love. Nyko is everything that makes the Atlans my favorites – he’s big, protective, caring, and will die unless he finds his mate (OK – he won’t die if he doesn’t find a mate – he will be executed). Nyko has been having more and more trouble controlling his beast and will soon have to find a mate. Fate throws these two together during a conflict with the Hive and that’s when things get interesting.
The story leads us into the conflict with the Hive on a level that we have only seen in Mated to the Beast (Sarah and Dax’s story). It gives us a glimpse into the magnitude of the fight that the Coalition is up against in fighting the Hive. In my personal opinion, it made for a much more interesting and absorbing story.
I was given an advanced copy by the author but will be purchasing it as soon as it goes live. Do yourself a favor, if you are into hot aliens – grab this series. I cannot recommend it enough
I like the paranormal Bride Interstellar Series. They are hot and steamy books besides who could resist an alien who would take care of you forever. People don’t stay together forever a lot these days. So it is refreshing to read these books.
