He’s big. He’s bad. His claws are epic.Frantic to avoid detection, Lila hides for the night in a condemned outbuilding on the edge of town. She checks each bunk for comfort and rests on the one with a strangely enticing scent and falls into an exhausted sleep. One problem—this place isn’t abandoned. Miners actually live here. And she’s chosen Zayzon’s bed. The loudest, tallest and sharp-clawed … and sharp-clawed out of a band of tragically messy Xylan brothers who can’t clean to save their lives. And he keeps standing much too close. And sniffing her hair. And muttering something about mating compatibility.
Whatever.
She’s just that desperate, so she offers to become their housekeeper if they’ll let her stay. The brothers accept, and Lila cleans up their freaking mess, relieved to have somewhere safe to live. Meanwhile, Zayzon keeps insisting that she continue to sleep on his bunk. And she keeps accepting! Because it’s getting harder and harder to deny her attraction for his possessive gaze, razor-sharp claws and his large… um, personality?
But Lila can’t fall for anyone, even a scary male who turns out to be cuddly. Not when demons from her past are about to return for their down payment.
Can a human save an alien miner’s life, without breaking his heart?

Lila is on the run and she has no ideal what she gets when she escapes and enter Zayzon’s room. The connection between both characters is explosive hot. Zayxons and his brother are bit of a slop and Lila is willing to be there housekeeper. The story plot is entertaining the sexy scenes . I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.

Great Story & Narration A Fascinating Delight!
Big Bad Claws
The Fever Brothers, Book 2
By: Michele Mills
Narrated by: Lauren Sweet
This is my first Michele Mills’ book and consider me wowed, she is a gifted author with a creative and imaginative mind. She created a wonderful, out of this world, SciFi Romance with interesting storylines that are captivating from start to end. The fascinating characters are easy to relate and connect with. I adored the lead female character, Lila, her character growth was remarkable, she starts off as a weak and fragile person with issues, the rug gets pulled out from under her she needs to learn to cope and survive. Sent to a planet unknown she finds a place to hide out, thinking it was abandoned, she was surprised to find that was not the case, other surprises came her way too. One being in the form of a big, scary male Xylan named Claw, aka Zayzon. Thankfully Xylan’s were allies to humans unbeknownst to her Zayzon was much more than her ally he was her intended mate. I loved how everything plays out in this book, the story is cleverly plotted and there is never a dull moment. There is plenty of drama, some action, angst, twists and turns, thrilling and suspenseful moments, heartfelt and emotional ones and a wonderful romance. Michele Mills, thank you for this wonderfully entertaining story, I am looking forward to checking out more of your work.
I listened to the Audible edition, Lauren Sweet is a talented narrator and versatile voice artist. She does an awesome job portraying the characters, bringing them to life and humanizing them with their emotions and personality. She gives each character their own unique voice which makes it easy to follow the story and who is who. She is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another fantastic listen
A very entertaining, romantic, enjoyable story. He’s charming. She finds herself. Really enjoyed this book. The only thing I didn’t like was the ending details. They were things out of left field in my opinion.
Loved it! I’m a huge fan of this author and this book did not disappoint. I loved the aspect of it feeling like a combination of different fairytales. It was a lot of fun to read and I can’t wait to read about the rest of the brothers!

There was adventure, comedy, and romance. I honestly recommend it. I really enjoyed the story and the world the author created. I thought it was very entertaining for being a short story and very hot. I can’t wait for more.
A cute and exciting love story, I loved Lila, but Zayzon was also likable. Lila starts off timid and milky but has to learn how to save herself. It was easy to read, a lot of stuff going on. Some of the writing was repetitious and I’ll admit that I skimmed over some overly worded inner dialogue parts. They weren’t that many, but enough to have to mention here. There was danger and action right from the start, and I really hope that the assassin ends up with a Fever brother too. By the time Lila and Zayzon touched palms, the sexual tension was very high and it was timed perfectly!
While this works as a standalone, it is actually the second (not counting the prequel) story about the Fever brothers. They are big and bad and dangerous miners. Lila is on the run from danger when she finds an abandoned outbuilding. She sneaks in for a night to sleep and after checking the beds, she settles into the only one that “feels” right.
The house is NOT unoccupied and she meets the Fever Brothers who can’t keep house. They are Xylan miners and she’s sleeping in the bunk of the biggest, baddest of them, Zayzon. He stands too close but she can hold her own and takes over as the housekeeper. She continues to sleep in Zayzon’s bunk at his insistence and the attraction spikes. But danger still faces her.
Loved this story. It was a fast and easy read and totally fun. Lila is strong enough and the danger real enough for the story to flow. Zayzon knows she’s his and even though he’s big and bad to everyone else, he’s putty in her hands. They were both great. We still have other brothers. I’m ready!
So…I was wondering why the blurb sounded so familiar! This is a take on Snow White but so much hotter! Totally enjoyed every moment of this book. Love that the heroine never backed down from the hero and how the hero wouldn’t give up on the heroine even when she turned him down. Fated mates stories are always a great read especially since it means no cheating and HEA and Michele Mills series are always a sure thing for those who want no cheating. And guess what, since there are six more brothers, that means six more hot books to look forward to! Hehehe…
Zayzon aka Claws finds his mate sleeping in his room. He needs to wear gloves because he needs her consent to made by clasping hand to claw. Lila is running for her life and finds an abandoned building for shelter after she escapes New Earth. These two are destined. Zayzon’s Pledges his life and honor to keep her aka his bride safe. Only if he knew from what. It does not matter. Adventure is called staying alive. No cliffhanger

I am loving this adventure. Seven miners return home after a grueling double shift in the mines. They find that their home has been invaded by someone, and the person is still there. Sleeping. Does this sound familiar? Well, that is where the similarities end.
Lila is on the run and looking for a place to hang out for a month. Zayzon of Forty-Five aka Claws is a Xylan miner who swore he would never mate.
The camaraderie between the crew Zayzon belongs to is a fun group of guys. I had fun reading the back and forth between them. Lila at first comes off as weak, but I liked the way she develops in the story.
I enjoyed reading this book and laughed a lot. One particularly fun spot is when the reader gets to discover why Zayzon has the nickname Claws.
This is a quick read that I think fans of S.E. Smith and Zoe Chant will enjoy. Have fun.
This is new to me alien romance series and author and I really enjoyed this short, funny and super adorable read. Lila is being hunted but she is saved by an assassin that her father helped and send to a random planet, she ends up in Minecorp Timbur where she sneaks around until she finds what looks like an abandoned ” unlocked” dwelling where she seeks shelter. In true snow white fashion she ends up with 7 huge alien miner brothers (no 8 was exiled), where she inadvertently ends up in Zayzon (Claws) bed and he recognizes her as his mate and wants to mate and protect her. To protect the brothers she refuses to mate them and hides in the house where she cleans for them. There are some really fun, funny scenes and a viral video. The chemistry between Zayzon and Lila was intense and sizzling and while he is huge and scary he is so sweet, lovable and protective with Lila and he respected her wish not to mate for 1 month (moon cycle). Lila is a survivor, she is smart, strong and honorable and tries not to put the brothers in harms way. She knows she is attracted to Zayzon but she also knows she can’t risk giving into her feelings.
The story line was an adaptation of snow white and the characters were well developed and you could not help but love them and relate to them.

Finding fated mates delivered right to your bedroom? Sign me up for it!
This book, slightly out of my normal preference, was an unexpected pleasure. I really enjoyed watching Lila grow, while Zayzon and his brothers softened toward her. It is exciting to think that there are six more Fever brothers for Ms. Mills to match up.This was a great read.

The more I read about the Fever Brothers, the more I want. I adored reading about Zayzon and Lila and gobbled it right up. With the strength of the the brothers in this story, was like a cherry on the top.
The stretch of the characters, (how each brother and bride are unique,) the chemistry of Claw and Lila’s connection, in a well written and plotted story with a detailed and fascinating new world, make this book a high recommend for me. And I’ll definitely be looking for more in this series.
Great read! And bonus: each book can definitely be read as a stand alone!

The second book in The Fever Brothers series a well written story with a great storyline, this story kept me turning pages. I want to read the next book. Human Lila and Zayzon’s story there is suspense, drama, danger, villains,one very nasty one, bounty hunters, and romance.

I was laughing with the blurb and then the story just kept me riveted. This was funny and utterly sexy. I love that the story itself is not super long but has enough to keep you reading. I read it in one sitting and now can’t wait for the rest of the brothers.
Zayzon just might be my favorite from this author. He will definitely be hard to forget. When he finds his mate in his bed, he is determined to win her heart. Lila feels safe and protected with Zayzon, but she is more concerned with keeping him and his brothers safe. These Xylans have proved their loyalty throughout the series. For both family and their mates. Zayzon will wait for Lila, as long as it takes. A sweet adventure with a touch of romance. Great addition to the series. I can’t wait to read about each of the Fever brothers.

The Fever Brothers are really sexy and their they are protective of Claws. These brothers were really fun and cute. Lila has actually chosen the loudest, biggest and sharped clawed of the messy Xylan brothers. They are rough miners and still very gentle and kind to Lila. Zayzon proved to be the most daring, fierce and is constantly sniffing Lila’s hair. She promises that if they let her stay she’ll clean their messy place. She is becoming much to enamored with Zayzon and she can’t deny her attraction for him. Will they be there for her when her demons from the past come looking for her? Will her cuddly male turn fierce to protect her? I received a copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
3.5 stars This was giving me very heavy Snow White vibes. Evil stepmother, finding a ramshackle abode in the woods (albeit on another planet) 7 people living in the same house…you get the picture. Add that onto the whole fated mates aspect and it was enough to keep me listening. I think Ms. Mills hits a nice niche for me when i’m in the mood for an sci-fi romance but don’t want to get bogged down with world building.
