The Tornian Empire has been dying ever since the great infection caused the birth of females to become a rarity. Since … Since then they have been searching the known universes, for compatible females. The Emperor’s discovery of a compatible female on a slave ship changed that.

Loved it and reread many times
Grim is my all time favourite book l love the love story between him and Lisa great book as usual
Awesome great read could not put it down
Nice book but with many problems. (grammatical, spelling etc)
Ok. Sure. Big, scarred, hunny alien with a heart of gold who has been done wrong to, and oh yeah – he’s built on a massive scale.
Everywhere.
Instead of just leaving it there, there are some injections of humor, a non-wimpy heroine, and a hero who thinks it’s his job to think of his partner first.
There seem to be a glut of “our world’s women are dying off” or “there was an illness that lead to fewer and fewer girls being born.”
This IS one of those, but the humor saves it from being just another lustful page turner.
It has that too, so don’t be disappointed!
Have fun reading it.
I did.
A basic romance, but wow did she nail the alien vs human/man vs woman point of view. I laughed so hard, so many times.
Don’t start this book unless you have time to read it all. Hard to put down.
I really liked this book, and plan to read the other books in the series.
Great read if you are into science fiction romance. It really isn’t “steamy” it is hot, hot, hot.
Never read paranormal from another planet. This book was really good. So good I read it twice.
This series will keep you wanting more.
The first M.K. Eidem book I read and got hooked! Grim is swoon worthy in an out of this world kind of way!
I was hooked from the beginning! Gave both points of view for the characters.
I couldn’t put this book done, once I started I just had to finish it.
i love the character Grim and all of the many other characters is this series. I loved this book so much i went and bought the whole series.
This book’s story is creative and populated with characters who are accessible and unforgettable. So why did I only give it 3 stars? Because it’s close to being the worst-written book I’ve ever read. The author is in serious need of a good editor to catch and correct her many, many, inexcusable, execrable errors. Words are the tools of an author, just as hammers and nails are the tools of the carpenter, and it is imperative that one know how to use those tools properly. The author has mangled what should have been a delightful, creative, enjoyably erotic and exciting work.
I’ve read twice. Love the story. There are editing issues, if which I noticed more the second time around. However, the story is so strong, I was able to over look. Enjoy!
Overall very enjoyable read, but I found the frequent shifting of tenses between past and present distracting.
I read it twice … which I NEVER do. Good book.
Good series beginning excellent lessons for honor and honesty in our treatment of our fellow man. Hot story too!
