Once a commander with the Intelligence Core for the Coalition Fleet, a mission gone wrong forced Chloe to return to Earth injured and dishonored. But she’s seen too much and is restless in civilian life. This drives her to do whatever it takes to return to space, to where she belongs, so she volunteers as an Interstellar Bride. She’s shocked to discover her mate is human, but he’s like no one … else she’s ever met…and he’s taken a second, a huge Prillon warrior equally determined to seduce her body and win her heart.
ReCon Captain Seth Mills lost both of his brothers to the Hive and vows to continue fighting. His bride is an unwelcome shock and he agrees to the Prillon custom of taking a second to protect the innocent woman destined to be his. No matter how determined he is to resist her allure, one touch, one kiss, and he knows he can never let her go.
Although she surrenders to their dominant touch, Chloe is no innocent. She’s a commander with secrets she can’t share. And when the entire Battlegroup is caught in a deadly Hive trap, she’s the only one who can save them all, no matter the cost. But Chloe’s mates won’t let her go into battle alone. No matter the risk, they’re willing to sacrifice everything…and fight for their mate.

Chloe, Seth, Dorian. Bruvan, Karter, Angh. This new Interstellar Brides story takes a slight twist and exposes us to an endless of new opportunity. Chloe Phan is a brilliant mind and courages heroine. Downtrodden by male chauvinism and the inability of some to accept the consequences of their actions, Chloe Phan was forced out of the Intelligence Core, relegated to life among the naive neanderthals of Earth.
But she has a plan.
That’s how Chloe finds herself at the Interstellar Brides Center; even if there was no chance she’d get to rejoin the fleet, a life in space among the informed would still be an improvement over her mundane life on planet Earth.
After experiencing the most stimulating dream-sequence she could never have imagined, Chloe finds herself face to face with he matched mate, Seth, Seth Mills, from Earth- a human, and his Prillon second, Dorian. Together they intend to take her, to claim her, to possess her. Only, as they quickly learn, its Chloe whose calling all the shots.
This story is one of my favorites yet. I’m trilled by the possibilities provided by the open-mindedness of these space war heroes and Grace Goodwin’s eagerness to explore them. We get so much development of characters we’ve met briefly in this story that as much as I enjoyed this book I’m that much more eager to see what or rather who, is next!
Fantastic! Loved seeing the pairing of a human warrior with a Prillon warrior in this one. I had been wondering if the human guys were going to get a chance for a bride! You get more details if you’ve read the others, but this one stands alone quite nicely!
loved the story.chloe is a strong, fierce, intelligent woman who was blamed for mistakes made by a narcissistic captain on a ship. she doesn’t like not working and doesn’t want to be on earth anymore and signs up to be a bride. seth didn”t want a bride b/c he felt he wouldn’t live long enough and couldn’t provide for her and children. dorian agree to be seths second and claim chloe together. chloe ends up helping out on the ship and saves lives. you must read the book to see the relationship develop and how she saves lives. an awesome read. i can’t wait for the next book
This book had me reading on the edge of my seat. It was jam packed with action scenes and I couldn’t stop reading because I wanted to find out what would happen next.
Chloe is a wonderful character. Strong, smart, feisty and submissive at the same time. I loved how the relationship was made up with a whole different pairing. Human Seth and his second Prillon Dorian. And I loved how supportive they were of Chloe. protective, but they also knew when to give her space and to trust her.
One of my favorite of the series.
great read
A wonderful author highly recommend her books
4.5 stars!
Lots to like about this one – full of action, swoon worthy heroes and a feisty and smart heroine who has a penchant for submitting in the bedroom. Great storyline, likeable characters and plenty to keep you entertained. Much more than just the sex scenes in this one. Recommend this read.
Great read!!!!
I voluntarily received an Advanced Readers Copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
What can I say to this book? It is absolutely smashing, fantastic, great, … did I already say fantastic???
I stumbled upon the books by this author last year as a NOT fan of Sci Fi books, but boy oh boy did I just simply fall head over heels for these books!!! It seems to me that each new book is equal or better than the one previous!!!!!
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Grace Goodwin does it again in this great new addition tho the interstellar brides series. Chloe is forced to retire from her high ranking military career when she is blamed for another persons mistake. However she is bored to death on earth and decides to go back to space as a bride. Seth Mills a human fighting the hive in space is forced by his sister who is mated to an Altan to get tested for a matched mate. However after a year he is sure he will be killed before she ever arrives. When he finds out she is on her way he knows he cannot mate her as he could be killed and leave her a widow at any time. His friend Dorian a Prillon has a way to prevent that, he will be Seth’s second and mate Chloe as well. The chemistry is off the charts when these 3 meet and Chloe loves the way the men dominate her body. Chloe has a secret though, she cannot tell her men about her past in the military or even that she outranks them. When the hive comes calling with a terrifying new weapon it just might be Chloe that saves them all. This is such a great read its got super hot love scenes but unlike so many other authors Grace Goodwin always has an excellent story line to go with them. I would recommend this to anyone who likes this genre its got great action and a great love story as well.
A Commander and her Two Captains. Commander Phan is done with Earth. Nothing works for her back at her civilian life. She needs to get back into the fray of the Hive fight. Her only way to get back into battle, become a Bride! Captain Seth is a ReCon human for the Coalition. He does not want the responsibility of a wife and life of a mate. To die and leave a family is too much for him to bear. Captain Dorian is a Prillion Pilot that never had a chance at a mate. He was second with his cousin who died at the hands of the Hive. Seth was mated with 99% accuracy to Commander Phan, Dorian wants to be his second at all cost. Power and rank will not stop these two warriors when it comes to the bedroom. Chloe may run the brig when they are in uniform, however her mates dominate the bedroom. Dedicated to her special outfitted abilities Chloe struggles to continue the good fight against the Hive and the need to be a mate and eventual mother. Which of the internal battles will win? Grace is amazing at weaving the stories of civilians, warriors and veterans. I am caught up in the story lines. I love the dedicated men and women that battle the Hive. I look forward to her books all the time.
I am a huge fan of Grace Goodwin’s books. She is an expert when it comes to combining sci-fi and romance and each book she writes gets better and better.
Fighting for their Mate is full of all Grace Goodwin goodness, it’s steamy and erotic with a fun and interesting story. I love a book about a strong independent but submissive heroine and two loving strong alphas!
This particular story is full of everything we’ve come to expect from Grace with an interesting twist! I highly recommend Fighting for their Mate!
What a great twist in the Interstellar Brides series! At loose ends back on Earth since her medical discharge from the coalition forces, Chloe decides she needs to go back into space. The only way to get back though is to volunteer as an Interstellar Bride. But Chloe is no ordinary bride. In fact, even her potential mates have no idea who she really is since her file is classified. Can a commander in the coalition forces really fit in as an Interstellar Bride? Can she really submit to not one but two mates? This was a great read as Chloe, Seth and Dorian all try to make a relationship work that none of them ever expected to have. Plenty of action and steamy scenes keep this series going but all of the books can be read on their own.
