MantskMy world is gone.Everyone on Arythios killed, our planet left uninhabitable. Destroyed by an unknown enemy while I was away on maneuvers with a small fleet of starships. We’re all that’s left— an elite team of warriors adrift in space with no home, no hope. And no females of our race left alive.We begged the Interstellar Federation for help, but all they sent us were a handful of females … handful of females from a primitive planet called Earth. “To see to the needs of your troops,” their leader said.
I swallowed my pride and accepted. With no Arythian females, we needed breeders. Though they were small and pale, the aliens would have to do. So I picked one out and started teaching her our ways.
She’s stubborn and full of fire, but she’s awakened a dark hunger in me. I had no idea I’d have to dole out so many punishments to train her properly—or how much I’d enjoy the task.

My world is gone.
I’ve never been so scared.
I volunteered for a diplomatic mission to the beautiful world of Arythios. But the Federation lied to me. The planet doesn’t exist anymore. Instead I woke up on an alien starship, surrounded by huge gray-skinned warriors who think I’m their new sex toy.
I’m adrift in space with no home, no hope. Their arrogant captain says I have to call him Master and obey him. When I don’t, he punishes me.
And the scariest thing of all is—I’m starting to like it.

No one to love
This book has a rather abrupt beginning, but as you get further into the story the authors brought out an entirely new side to this alien commander. I enjoyed the little looks we got into both of the characters pasts and the chance to see their relationship change. This is a quick read, so there is no direct action, but the bits we hear about are intense. I really enjoyed this story and I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
Interesting sci-fi romance and a great start to their new series
—>>> Reeling from the devastating loss of his home planet of Centauri, Captain Mantsk returns from his mission to discover to his horror that all that is left of his world is the all-male crew on his ship. As such, females from Earth were given to them to help propagate their species. One captive, Jess, quickly catches Mantsk’s eye and as he has first pick from the women, Jess was chosen to be his. Somehow, though, this little human gets under this stern captain’s grey skin and little by little, while he hunts for those who destroyed his world.
This is a short story about human females being betrayed by their government and sent to an alien ship. The aliens have recently lost their planet and all their females. This results in aliens and humans not understanding each other as they have each been told something different, and then there is the translation issue. There is some chemistry between the 2 main characters as they learn more about each other. The human female has no rights at all so if this is an issue for you then you won’t like this story. It’s a well written story with an interesting plot. The alien main character comes over as being unpleasant for most of the book. This is my first time reading this author and I’d consider reading more from her in the future.

Book one in a new series called Centauri Captives and I want to read the next book. This is a short quick book to read. Jess does not really know why she was sent away from Earth until she talks to Arythios warrior Captain Mantsk who has claimed her. This story ends with a lead into the next story atleast that is how it seems. So I would say read these books in order.

Not a bad novella it just felt lacking. The connection between the characters seemed almost non existent. If this were the first novella I read in the series I probably would not continue but I liked Claimed so I’m going to continue. Hope the others are good.
Also, this one was spicy!!
I loved this one enough to immediately dive into book 2. My only issue is that the story is fast and not very long. Everything moves at a very rapid pace, and it doesn’t give a lot of time to become invested in the character. It’s still a fabulous sci-fi romance if you like your stories a little on the dark side, but it could be so much better if it was lengthened.
