Despite being dumped on a primitive alien world, Lily is adapting to life there, with the help of Frrar, Tor, and Arruk. But they can’t stay in the safety of the caves forever. The flood waters have receded and it’s time to join the rest of the tribe… While traveling, their group meets a familiar face from Arruk’s past – a man half feral and covered in vicious scars. Something about him draws … him draws Lily in, despite those who already hold her heart. But that isn’t her biggest concern.
Can Lily keep the Tribe Mother from discovering just how much being with her has changed her new mates? Will the tribe accept her, a stranger in their lands? Or will Lily have to fight the very people who were supposed to offer her safety and a home?

Sci-fi. Rh. 3(4) outcast aliens. Human female. Having survived the flood and predators. Lily and her guys make their way to the guys tribes. Looking forward to the next in series.
Who knew aliens could be so hot?! The world building in this entire series is insanely good and the love between characters has me coming back for more every time. Can’t wait for the next installment!
If you’ve never read a romantic sifi this is the best series to start with! It’s so full of love and life it will make you want more!
This was another great book by Stacy Jones, and a great follow up to book one. Lily and her mates are adjusting to living in the cave and are adapting to learning each other’s language. Now that it’s time to move on, they have a whole other set of worries, and Lily finds herself a new friend or two. Again the amount of detail and description is fantastic and the relationships between the group are fun and lighthearted. When reading this you get a real sense of the writer’s personality and it makes reading this story even more fun. I look forward to book three.
This a good continuation of the story. The characters continue to grow and so do their relationships. I cannot wait for the next book!
Book 2 in this sci-fi reverse harem series
If you haven’t read book 1.. you freaking need to because
1) it’s so bloody great
2) it’s gives the story of how ellie ends up with the 3 guys
3) have I mentioned it’s great??
So… picking up not long after book 1 ends..
Ellie and her 3 husbands A F And T, who are furry, 4 armed ( hey I love forearms and they each have forearms!! BONUS!! ) and be-tailed are living in the mountain cave after escaping the annual flood.
After the floods disperse they plan to travel back to meet up with their matriarchal tribe for safety. When it turns out that ellie is a healer, F and A are more concerned than ever that their soft and small pascha will need more than just 3 mates to protect her and keep her safe. Not just from the number of predators on the planet but from other tribe members.
They hope that there will be worthy males that come forward and ‘present’ their interest in becoming additional mates. More specifically they hope that A’s twin brother and the boys lifelong friend, the reclusive scarred up loner D will join their family unit… that if they can find him. …and that ellie can see past his outward exterior and accept him also.
Again no more regarding the story because #NoSpoilers and it’s too great not to read.
This is a wonderfully constructed book that is filled with beautiful descriptive imagery that literally fills your mind with pictures. I adore how vivid the planet is and I adore even more how original and creative it is.
I’m really enjoying our boys individual development with their growing confidence with ellie and as a family unit as a whole. I adored the segments from the boys and it was great seeing their thoughts and personalities.
now I have my favourite of the boys…. it’s allowed! I can totally have a favourite…this book is a fantastic reverse harem that doesn’t play favourites or reduces one boys ‘on screen’ time or affection over another’s and it’s so well done that the equality in the family unit is clearly show and beautifully done. They each bring something to the units dynamic.
A as always is the marshmellow! The wonderfully big, gruff but gentle souled giant and my total favourite of the boys!
F Is the planner, the serious and soul hurt semi bad boy of the bunch and a very very close second favourite of mine!
T is they joker, the wonderful mood defuser and his obsession with Ellie’s potentially fatal dancing furry catepilars literally cracked me up!!
D… Im simply loving what I’ve read about him so far, he’s a daredevil and a shy guy rolled into one…filled with self doubt.
I’m looking forward to the next instalment. There is rumbling of difficulties and trials for our unit on the horizon with the unknown threat that has attacked the boys original tribe and I’m looking forward to seeing how it all unfolds as well as how ellie copes with her new ‘mother in law’.
I’m hoping that it’s not too far away because this series and author is continuing to become a solid favourite of mine!! And I’m not sure I can wait patiently!
This second book surpassed the first and I’m seriously I love with all of Lilly’s hot alien mates.
They are equally adorable and all in different ways, Tor with his mischievous playfulness. Arruk with his shy gentle teddy bear persona and Frrar with his serious protectiveness and constant hovering.
Their time spent isolated together in their cave retreat has only furthered their bond but now with the floods receding it’s time to journey back down to the forest and rejoin the rest of the tribe.
Lily’s mates are also concerned about being able to fully protect her and keep her safe but at the same time are reluctant to introduce unworthy males into their family dynamic as is their usual custom.
But there is a male they all-ready consider family Arruk’s twin brother Drrak a scarred and almost feral loner who is also like them on the fringes of their society.
So having a new male introduced was intriguing we aren’t quite there with Drrak yet he and Lily are both naturally optimistic and equally cautious but lily is also becoming open to the possibilities and does see just what Drrak could bring but she is also naturally wary at the same time.
Drrak for once in his life feels a glimmer of hope especially observing how Lily interacts with her mates accepting them fully and he desperately wants that for himself.
Because of his scars and his wild nature he has resigned himself to being alone now he finally feels that there may be a chance for him.
I worried that bringing in a fourth mate so late in the game would upset the balance and easy dynamics already established but it actually didn’t.
Drrak’s inclusion added something extra and he is different from Lily’s current mates bringing his own magnetism it was also undertaken really well he just slots right in like a piece of a puzzle you never knew was missing.
I’m interested in seeing how this new potential connection thrives going forward it’s early days yet but the roots are taking hold.
There’s much more going on in this second book and I was on tenterhooks when lily was finally introduced to her mate’s tribe man that was intense Tors mum was super scary.
There are also strange things afoot and it may have something to do with just how lily arrived on this planet so I’m intrigued to discover more there.
This series is so much better than I was expecting and I adore just how original it all is I definitely recommend.
