The aliens are savage animals.Zandra wants nothing to do with them. She has plans for her life.But when she gets kidnapped by TerraMates, she doesn’t have a choice.Suddenly Earth is far away, and she’s expected to be a wife and a mother.Her husband? He’s bloodthirsty and ruthless. He’s the feral leader of the tribe.And now Zandra belongs to him.
This book starts out with Alisha and Zandra going to meet Maxine who is a match maker who pairs human women with Alien males, Alisha wants to be a mate for an Alien but Zandra wants nothing to do with any of it.. She only wants to support her friend and co-worker.
Jurgen is an Alpha/Cheif of Erusha and his tribe needs women cause all of his women have been killed during a war between the different tribes. So they contact Terra Mates to ask for 30 Brides for their tribe.
Maxine pretty much drugs and kidnappes Zandra and a few other women puts them in Cryo sleep and sells them to off.
Eventually after many battles Jurgen and Zandra come together but even though there is chemistry between these two there are also many gaps and fighting cause of pride in between this couple. Eventually there is HFN.
I like this book and story, it was a little better than some of the other’s that I have read in the past. At the same time it has left me with allot of questions about what happened to Alisha. After the begging and the few times Zandra thinks about her friend there is no mention of her or of Maxine even though, she did wrong Zandra saved Maxine’s life in the end??
** I received an advanced copy of this book from the author and volunteerly decided to review this book**
I voluntarily offered to review this book with no obligations and my opinions are honest!
I loved the book!
Zandra was at the matchmaker office for moral support,
How was she to know that she would be sold as a mate as well.
Jurgen does not “want” a female, but he “needs” a female.
Will these 2 kill each other, before they learn to live w/ each other ?
I loved the storytelling + the characters.
It has all the ingredients that you need for a great book!

Great read

When he agrees to use TerraMates to bring in Earth woman who are interested in marrying Aliens he never dreamed of the adventure that would ensue or the glorious, fiery red-head who can change his world.
This is not your usual Terramates romance.
As you can see from the title of this book
Zandra Didn’t sign up to be a mail order bride.
The action in this book almost starts right from
the beginning of the story and keeps on all the way through.
Definitely a read that had me with the plot and characters.
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.
Terra Mates have come a long way from the original storyline and I guess in order to keep the story fresh you had to change it up a little bit.
What this story you have Hannah who has decided to become a career woman doing a favor for a friend Alisha by going to a mixer at Terra mates.
Jurgen lives on a planet that has been at war among the various tribes for years to the point that their particular tribe has been decimated down to nothing but men. He knows that he must do something to try and rebuild his tribe and to keep his place as chief even if at the time the thought is abhorrent to him
Let’s just say things don’t go as planned either for Hannah or Jurgen and they will have to learn to work together and make the best of the situation.
I will admit I didn’t think the story was originally supposed to be about Hannah more about her friend Alisha whose story thread was left hanging as far as I’m concerned. For me that was one of the unsatisfying aspects of the story as you don’t know what happens to her.
Overall the book is not bad the storyline is more than adequate to give the readers a sense of who these characters are and what’s happening in their lives.
This is an entertaining read. It is different from the other TerraMates stories I have read. The story showed the dark side of the mating business. This has wonderful, well developed characters. The female lead is realistic in who she is and what she feels. The male lead looks intimidating. He is the head alpha chief of his tribe. He is commanding but has a tender side to him. The story showed him in different vulnerable situations that he handled with modesty and humility. The supporting characters were excellent especially the TerraMates matchmaker. Under the guise of friendliness, she was evil. The way she was written, you could feel the hate oozing from her eyes. This is an excellent story, full of action and adventure, war and strife and last but not least romance. I totally recommend it. I received an Advanced Readers Copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Once again Ms.Lace has written a story that will keep you turning the page until the very end. Zandra had no intentions of applying to Terra-Mates. She was happy with her life on Earth and had no desire to leave. Jurgen needed women to help his “clan” rebuild and survive after the deaths of all the women and children. When he agrees to a contract with Terra-Mates, Zandra’s life will be changed forever. These two are like “oil and water”. Needless to say it will be a rocky road they will travel on their way to a HEA>

After being kidnapped and sent to an alien planet, Zandra is far from Earth and is expected to marry and become a mother. She is not happy about it and will do anything to find a way back to Earth.
Her soon-to-be husband is Jurgen, the leader of his tribe, who must marry and have an heir to remain in that position.
After an agreement, Zandra and Jurgen decide to marry, but when problems appear, will they be able to overcome them, or will Zandra have to marry another alien?
I loved this story because of the romance and small twists. I recommend the reading.
