This novel was well written and edited, with no typos that I could discern. The characterization of all four characters was masterful, and the development of the romance between the heroine and all four heroes was natural and organic, with me being able to see the process of them falling in love. That is in incredibly hard thing for an author to skillfully write, and is one of the big challenges of writing reverse harem romance novels. The world building was excellent, with Narkos and the culture of the Company’s worlds being very interesting. The plot and pacing was very exciting, meaning I finished this novel in one sitting. The angst in this novel was pretty high, but the stakes were also very high, so I was able to enjoy the high angst. I tend to prefer romance novels with high stakes. This novel uses the Woman Shortage trope. I will probably buy myself a keeper copy of this duology, because I enjoyed it so much. I recommend this romance to readers who enjoy sci-fi romance set on prison planets or reverse harem romances.

Living on the prison planet of Narkos gave Hannah very few freedoms, except those granted to her by her owners, the males of her unit. Her four men treated her well, even loved her in their own way. But just as they were becoming a closer unit, an accident at the port had left her drugged and addled, and her memory remained fragmented. The drug had caused her to make major mistakes and put her in harm’s way as she was attacked.
Now Hannah, Ky’Li, Ren, Sersie, and Vaughn are growing more deeply together, more than units and actually a family who would sacrifice for each other, as well as each developing their own individuality. But the challenges are still not over for them as Hannah is taken away. When she is put in danger, what will their response be?
This story will easily capture the reader’s interest. It continues the story line from Book 1 as we see the characters changing and becoming more. Grab your copy and see how it all resolves for them.
This is another awesome book by Julie K Cohen, it picks up where the first book left off and does not disappoint! Hanna and all the guys are back. We see more sides of the guys and more tender personal moments by the group. There’s more tenderness with some hot scenes and secrets of the past. It’s a fascinating story with lots of action and suspense. It had me scared, laughing, crying and smiling at different parts of the story. Through the story they all proved they were a family and would do anything for each other! It’s an emotional roller coaster ride and a must read for any fan!!!! I LOVE THIS AUTHOR!!!!

I definitely enjoyed book 2 more than Auctioned. I thought Hannah & her guys had more depth to them. More secrets are revealed in this one, including Hannah being a Level 5. There’s lots going on for our group during this one, including a bonding ceremony performed by Ky’Li making all 4 of them brothers. I connected with all of the characters & couldn’t put it down. Ends with HEA.
Julie has another awesome story with both books. These are a definite must read for all of Julie’s fans.

Wonderful way to end the books. You were able to see how each character grows to care for each other and become more than a ”unit” – they become a family. Love the stories and I am looking forward to reading more!

This second book picks up exactly where book one ends and it’s not disappointing. Hannah, Ky’Li, Ren, Sersie, and Vaughn are back. We see more sides of the guys, hidden secrets of the past, more tenderness and verry hot steamy scenes. We watch them grow as a unit as well as individually. They are forced apart more than once, only to come back together better than ever. There’s more betrayal, fights, threats, murder, bombs, and so much more.
It’s an roller-coaster ride of emotion.
Sometimes I had to smile, cry, laughter and even scared at various sections of the story.
We see a whole new planet emerge for the better of the prisoners.
It kept me again hooked from beginning to end. Couldn’t put it down. I love to recommend this book.

Second in a Series of a Steamy Reverse Harem Prison Story. Just WOW! Hannah and her four men go through more ordeals that test their love for Hannah, their brotherhood and their family unit. They each fight for each other and against the wrongdoings by the people in charge of the prison. In the end, they do realize what their family and love is.
I really enjoyed part 2 of this story. Great characters. Would definitely read more from this author.
This captivating story continues with more ups and downs for Hannah and her 4 men.
This is quite a long book, if you consider both parts, but never boring.
While I was at first a little sad with the ending, I do think that it is very realistic and fits into this Prison World. It is still a Happy End.
I hope the author continues this series and we get an update on Hannah and her family.
