Suspected of kidnapping. Broke. Dumped. Katie thought things couldn’t get any worse.Then, she was abducted by aliens.Sure, they were hot warrior aliens, and the space station she was taken to was the coolest place she’d ever seen. Holographic fantasy suites? Over-the-top weddings complete with over-the-top alien wedding planners? Katie knew the tabloids back home would pay a boatload for a scoop … pay a boatload for a scoop like the one she was sitting on. If only she could find a way off the station and tell everyone on Earth.
But first, there was a problem of the Drexian warrior she was supposed to marry. The one whose scars and nightmares scared her. The one she couldn’t fall for.
Zayn knew he didn’t deserve a tribute bride. Those were for heroic warriors, not for soldiers who’d been captured and tortured.
The human with fiery-red hair may stir something within him, but he knows she can’t be his. Not when he’s sure she’s been sent to spy on him. He needs to prove that he hasn’t been turned by the enemy and keep his distance from the human. No matter how much he wants to claim her.
This standalone action romance novel features steamy scenes on a holographic fantasy space station, a high-strung alien wedding planner with a penchant for platform shoes, deadly aliens hell-bent on invading Earth, and smoking-hot Drexian warriors with extra erogenous zones who are equally determined to protect Earth.
If you like hot alien warriors, spunky Earth women, and steamy romance with a happily ever after and a few laughs, you’ll love Exposed, the third book in Tana Stone’s sci-fi romance Tribute Brides of the Drexian Warriors series.

I really liked this book and in fact it is my favorite of this series so far. There was an extra layer of emotion to this story due to Zayn’s history. This added extra feels to this romance and a lot of complexity to the character. This couple was very appealing and I found myself actively rooting for them. Zayn made my heart hurt and I found him quite swoon worthy. He was brave and strong and I just loved him. As for Katie, she had spunk and sass. All together this was a very fun read that was romantic and steamy. Only single narration on this book but the narrator’s voice was pleasing and they did a wonderful job of bringing this story to life.
This is the third book of the Tribute Brides of the Drexian Warriors Series, an interconnected standalone Sci-Fi action romance, with crossover characters. Katie and Zayn’s story is intriguing, fun, and steamy. Katie is feisty, independent, and strong. Zayn is a complex character, strong, and caring. I loved to follow them in this adventure, and I love the ending. The supporting characters are great. I like their friendship. The world building is well done and intriguing. Once again, the Epilogue gives us a glimpse of what’s to come. Jodie Bentley has a beautiful voice, easy to understand. She also has a great range of voices, and the characters were easy to distinguish. She did a great job with the narration. Looking forward to listen to the next installment in the Series, Ramsomed. I was given a free review copy of the audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
Celebrity photographer and former grifter Katie is abducted by aliens to become alien warrior’s tribute bride. She decides to play along so that she can escape and tell her story to the tabloids. Zayn, a scarred warrior who was captured and tortured, doesn’t want a tribute bride. Suffering from survivor’s guilt, he doesn’t think Katie is good enough for him. There’s plenty of distrust to go around. But just as their love blossoms, strange things, seemingly linked to Zayn, start going wrong on the space station. Exposed was a well-written creative, alien abduction romance. Nothing too heavy, just a fun story.
This series just keeps on getting better. I’m loving the overarching story and how it is progressing with each couple. I enjoy seeing things from the new characters point of view and I like that the older characters are still around and a part of it all. I loved the set up of this story, such a great idea! So many misunderstandings, sad to say I love watching those play out, lol. I love watching as the relationships build and the characters figure things out. Now I can’t wait for the next book!
Of stealth, sleepers, and deceit as the background for love
Exposed continues the saga of the Drexians and their covert protection of Earth in exchange for human brides. This is book 3, and readers of the series may find a little too much reiteration of explanations from previous books. No doubt it’s an attempt to make it more stand-alone, but honestly – read the series! The original tales are way better than the rehash, and the events in this book will make more sense. It’s all about the Kronock war for Earth, and their planned galactic expansion, and they’ve come up with a doozy of a plan! NO SPOILERS, but let it be known that Drexian warrior and former Kronock POW is a hottie with some serious issues. PTSD is only one of them. He’s not gonna marry a human Tribute; he doesn’t deserve one. But he wants her… Human Katie is a former papparazzo and current criminal suspect who is brought to the “Boat” space station as a Tribute Bride. Basically it’s a rescue. She’s not grateful. She’s a born con artist and can’t trust – or be trusted. She’s not going to stay, not gonna marry that scarred, sweet alien hunk, not gonna drink the aliens’ Kool-Aid. But she wants him. Resolution of the ensuing sexual tension doesn’t even begin to settle the issue, and the malfunctioning space station keeps messing things up. Unrelated issues somehow come together, but will it be in time to save lives, and love? It’s a nail-biter ending to a sad-sweet sexy story, and a good continuation of the series. Grab it!
Just the absolute best story. It had me captivated from the beginning with the hot steamy scenes. I really enjoyed reading this book and I would recommend it! Everything I like to read about and more. Such a great story I will read again and again. A keeper!!

Great read
Enjoyable sci-fi romance
—>>> Kidnapped and taken to an alien ship is just the latest on her list of unbelievable things to happen to Katie, but at least she will be able to avoid the terrible reality that she has no boyfriend, no money to pay her rent, and no photo to sell to the tabloids. There IS a connection, however, responsible for her being taken from Earth, and now she is forced to become a Tribute Bride to an alien warrior. But what a story that could be, right? After all, she has to be able to make the most of her situation, no matter what she feels for this sexy warrior she was given as a reward to.
The emotions of what the main characters go through in the aftermath of life-changing events were well described and honest. Great first read from this new-to-me author, and I look forward to more from this series and author!
Drexian warrior, Zayn doesn’t want a consolation gift for being a surviving troop leader. But once he sees Katie’s red curly hair, he’s a goner. Katie, trained con artist by her Dad. Used the talent by being a type of paparazzi. Open she’s kidnapped, to maybe be this warriors bride, she’ll do almost anything to expose the plans to the unsuspecting earth. Katie needs to make a choice of exploitation of her “matched” mate. Steamy scenes, HEA and some crazy characters. Stand-alone romance but connecting story line. One can follow the romantic vibe without getting confused with everything else going on in the story.

Katie and Zayn were the next in the human / alien mates in this episode of the Tribute Brides of the Drexian warriors. These two didn’t want what was thrust upon them at first but they ended up fighting for each other in the end.

I couldn’t put this book down!! Zayn’s a Drexian warrior whose been put through horrid torture by their enemy. When he escapes his captors, who murdered his whole team, he doesn’t stop to ask himself why it was so easy to get away. When he makes it to his fellow drexians, he’s put on the “Boat”. He doesn’t realize at first he’s getting a tribute bride. Katie, a paparazzi photographer, has had her own troubles. She sets out for work one morning, and everything goes to crap. She gets home and her boyfriend has taken everything except for some of her belongings. All the sudden a man is at her door. Next thing she knows, she wakes up in an unfamiliar place, meets/finds the person she thinks is responsible for her life falling apart, and gets told she’s getting married to the big alien sitting on the balcony! This story is hard to put down! I don’t want to spoil the rest of the book for anyone, do I’ll stop there. Zayn and Katie go through so much together, it is so heartwarming how their story ends. I felt like I was there with them, feeling the heartbreak, betrayal, confusion, and love right along with them. I truly can’t wait to read the next book!

This is the third book in the series but is the first one I have read from this series but I will definitely be checking out the rest of the series. I enjoy a good Alien romance so this was a great read for me. I thought the plot was good and well thought out and I just loved the characters this was a good interesting read and it will have you absolutely hooked and on the edge of your seat.
I LOVED this book!!!! Tana Stone had become one of my go to authors. Her plot, word and character building are off the charts. She makes you feel as if your part of the story. Zayn and Katie are so hot and steamy together. Zayn is a drexian warrior imprisoned and tortured by the Kronock until he escapes.Katie works for the paparazzo who is being chased by the paparazzo after taking the last known picture of Mandy who was taken by the drexian’s to be a Tribute Bride. Now Katie is taken to be a Tribute Bride also. It’s a fast paced read with drama, suspense, twists and turns and lots of hot and steamy romance. I won’t give any more away so you’ll need to grab yourself a copy to find out is they get their HEA!!! I highly suggest this author and her books!!!

I mean, who does not love a romance with an alien! Being a warrior is a perk too. The story had a good pace and it was interesting to see the main characters mesh.

This is the first time I have read a book written by this author & I will admit that I enjoyed reading it. It has an interesting, well-paced story-line & plot. The complex characters are quite well-developed & display realistic emotional feelings & are inclined to be devious at times.
There is: a young female paparazzo (Katie) at the receiving end of paparazzo hounding, a Drexian military intelligence officer (Zayn) with survivors guilt, twists & turns, intrigue, suspense, various kinds of aliens, humans, friendship, abduction, danger, threats, enemies, conflict, torture, escape, deceit, betrayal, tribute brides, devious plans, strange attractions, discovery, doubts, determination, declaration, love, contentment, some steam & a interesting epilogue.
First time reading a book by Tana Stone. Since I read the summary I was intrigued and after finishing it I was in love with her aliens!
