They came to Earth for a single purpose: to breed.I was on a routine patrol when my ship encountered an anomaly orbiting Earth. I broke protocol to investigate, only to suddenly find myself in a very small cell with a very large alien male.He is Talon, captain of the Virility, and I am now his captive. His crew’s mission is to spread their offspring throughout the universe, breeding with every … universe, breeding with every form of life they encounter.
Including me.
Publisher’s Note: Bred includes spankings and rough, intense sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

Wow…this was such a great book! This is set in the future of Earth. Lycra is a loner who works to protect the world from it’s inhabitants. One day she sees an anomaly and goes to investigate. What she finds is an alien ship. Talon is the captain of the ship. The aliens go about the universe spreading their seed with the goal to make the universe more the same. Once Lyra is aboard, she must stay, but she wants to go home. She makes trouble and gets punished for it. She comes to love being on the ship. Of course, there has to be difficulties. And how those difficulties are solved makes this story so great. There is a HEA.
I liked everything I read in this story. Lyra was a hoot, she goes where no one has gone before, saw what should not be seen and experiences everything she could wish for but never knew she could have. Captain Talon of the ship Virility, who travels space and seeds nebulas among other things. The Captain and crew travel space and breed every source of creation they can. Lyra is about to crash and die when she lost control over her ship and is rescued, saved, abducted? by Capt Talon. On the Virility she must be dealt with by Shank, the Captain’s second and the ship’s punisher, and now Lyra’s. Luca the unexplainable but perfectly perfect man who has it all and knows how to use it.
Talon has two and Shank’s shank undulates. There is also an unknown entity that swallows up any space it enters and leaves only negative matter behind. All that makes for a very enjoyable story where I could laugh and cry and worry and enjoy all the great sex, punishments and situations that Lyra gets herself into, while thinking, I want to be her, yet I’m glad I’m not. Luca I want, I really would love a Luca of my own! There’s so much going on, yet I want more. I think this is my favorite Loki Renard story to date.
Lord this was such a fun and so different interesting story I just loved the characters and their situations all about the loving and super hot with sexy Aliens and cyborgs YES!!! and their all different I loved that. Lyra who ends up on this love ship is one strong determined woman god I loved everything about her I was laughing out loud at her antics giving them the run around and all the sauciness and her favorite word haha. Captain Talon, Luca and Shank find her fascinating and all play their part with different opinions and ways to make her behave as they go through space spreading their seed from the VSS Virility. Fantastic plot and characters so well developed you will fall head over heels for these guys they are so perfect. I loved it.
I enjoyed this steamy read. The unique story line was entertaing and the scenes were sizzling. Dark, hot, intense and different, I thought this was a very fun read.
A futuristic experience for a government pilot, Lyra always followed the rules. Being a woman, she’s had to work harder than most to get where she is. Her best friend and co-worker? Not so much. That’s why they’re on the phone speaking when it happens. Should she follow protocol and inform someone or turn around and investigate? Feeling invincible for having technology that allows her to see what other countries think they’re cloaking, she does an internal debate as to what to do when her screens are showing something in space her eyes can’t see. Her best friend convinces her to turn around and check it out. In Loki Renard fashion, this is an extraordinary tale of her adventure and the discoveries she makes along the way. It’s fun, it’s sexy and it comes with an Happily Ever After.
The surprises and plot twists in this one left me breathless. There are a lot of things that I didn’t see coming that took the story in a whole different direction. I LOVED IT! There are few things about this dirty sci-fi that are realistic, so leave your real world behind before jumping in.
Lyra is a snarky, stubborn, independent, a little bit lonely, a little bit bored, and has mischievous streak that is a mile wide. She made me giggle with some of the antics she gets into. Tallon is the exact opposite. He is controlled, used to being obeyed at all times, protective, and has a strict set of rules. He’s also on a mission. There are a few other notable members of the crew; Shank, who is the second in command and the disciplinarian, and Luca, who is a hot sexy guy that Lyra can’t keep her eyes (and other body parts) off of.
This isn’t a very long read and the plot moves at a very fast pace. It is full of action and excitement, and there is a lot of sexiness going on. It isn’t a super dark read but there are a few elements that keep it from being light and fluffy, so know what you are getting into before starting this one. If you love your books a little bit hotter than this is the perfect read for you. Ms. Renard has created a story that will not only heat you up, it will also grab a hold of your heart and bring tears to your eyes. This is one of my favorite books by this author and I highly recommend it.
An exhilarating and satisfying read on all levels. This was the perfect book for me: intricate storyline to cover more than the main characters, creative characters to stretch the imagination, steamy scenes to melt you, and humor which is not often found in this author’s more dark reads. Everything just worked to create a book that grabbed your mind and body, making you feel invested in the outcome – a sci-fi gem of unintended consequences, wrapped up in a sizzling bow. Just pick up this book, and I quote, “Have fun.”
When Lyra’s shuttle is destroyed while she is checking out an anomaly she spotted while on patrol, she is taken captive by the Captian of the ship Talon, his first mate Shank and Luca a droid they used to seduce their captive. They have ventured into Earth’s space to breed, it is their goal to breed all species into one, which will end any conflicts between species. Lyra who has really never had much of anything except her work is coming to realize that there is more to life then work and love just waiting to happen. A fast reading interesting stores with enough twists and turns to keep you interested and enough heat to burn up the pages, what a great story, Loki has done it again!
What a fabulous story. It is unique and creative. The characters really make you care and you want to know how everything turns out for them. I enjoyed how they all connected with her differently, they each met a different need. And Luca was just perfect. This story has so many layers that you just want to reread it as soon as you are done.
Sci-fi romance at its NAUGHTIEST, at its rockiest, and at its BEST!
OMW! I have always wanted to travel through space. Yet that dream went unrealized until I read VIRILITY by Loki Renard. I saw so much of myself in Lyra: her love of travel, love of space and her drive to earn her position. And that rebellious spirit and wicked tongue, I could see right away that Lyra was going to be a favorite. Yet, I don’t think that Lyra gives herself enough credit. When everything in her world changes and she realizes that she truly has no control, Lyra finds a new pleasure in the only thing that feels familiar. . . I was so invested in Lyra, I read the book instead of sleeping. Watching how the alien beings (from Lyra’s perspective) try to understand and interact (from Talon’s perspective) with her, and then try to better control her made me laugh, swoon, and giggle some more. You’ll never guess – not in a million years – what they do subdue her reckless endangerment of the ship I hope Renard writes another book or two in this world she has so lovingly created. As always, Renard’s prose is eloquent and descriptive, her characters are incredibly well-developed for a novella, and the plotlines are innovative and creative. I could not put the book down. Yes, readers will have to suspend logic, but that is part of the fun with science fiction writing when it is done well. And VIRILITY is done well. It is exciting, full of suspense, STEAMY beyond belief, and now I want to be an astronaut again. I voluntarily read a copy of VIRILITY by Loki Renard, and this is my voluntary and HONEST 5+STAR review because VIRILITY is so out of this world! However, VIRILITY is also for readers 18 and over and may have triggers. If you like sci-fi erotic and romantic, then I STRONGLY suggest that VIRILITY be your next romance purchase! Happy pages!
This story is filled with tension, eroticism, intelligence and heroism.
Lyra is flying an earth spaceship when she accidentally crashes into an invisible alien craft. Captain Talon manages to save her life, but allowing her to return to Earth is out of the question. In order to try to escape, Lyra triggers damage to the alien craft, causing her to incur a stern punishment session from the Disciplinarian.
At first, my mind had a hard time trying to figure out how these aliens, who are configured so differently from tiny, delicate Lyra would find a way to merge their needs and desires. Well, if you want to see if they do, read and enjoy this book!
Go F#$k a nebula
This was not Loki’s normal writing style. I was leery at first but thinking it was going to be too tame. Well, I was proven wrong, it’s a space opera. The characters each have their own personality, species and quirks. The story leaves you with warm fuzzy feeling with some really hot sex. I would recommend this book for everyone to read
I’ve long been a fan of Loki Renard. Her books are so unique and entertaining, the stories are well presented, and I absolutely adore some of her characters, especially the women, who find themselves in some very upsetting circumstances.
Bred is the story of Lyra and her journey to love and freedom through her association with three alien males: Talon, Shank, and Luca (read the blurb for more plot lines).
Lyra is one of my favorite Loki characters. There were parts in her dialogues where I would laugh outright at her audaciousness or I would nod my head and say, “You tell ‘em, sister.” She is a thoroughly delightful and daring young woman. These harsh, and honestly lonely, males need her in their lives.
The book held my attention from beginning to end. It was exciting in some parts, funny in others, and it was heartwarming as well. Highly recommended.
Spectacularly entertaining sci-fi storyline
—>>> Captain Talon and his crew on the VSS Virility have been one a ten-year mission when they encounter a lone female piloting a shuttle which was on a collision course with his ship. Bringing her on board, Talon soon realizes that this human, Lyra, an Elite Global Officer, is much more than one lone male can handle, with her bravery and boldness for adventure.
With enough savant premises to impress the science geek in you, uniquely detailed characters to round out the uniqueness of the story (e.g. Major Tom), as well as the consequences of playing God with alien entities, Loki Renard has created a spectacularly entertaining sci-fi storyline, one of my top-shelf favorites by far!
