I really enjoyed this book. I love how Alek was protective of Kendall. I like the irony of him giving up on love and finding his mate on the night of the celebration but in the woods instead of the procession. I like that he was a strong warrior but also had doubts about himself. This made him more real to me. The fact that Kendall wouldn’t give up on her father even though he lost her in a bet shows the love between parents and their children. I like how she refused to give up on finding her sister even though it would be difficult.
Kendall had been studying to be a station engineer. Now she has been repossessed and sold due to her father’s gambling debts. Who knew people could actually be repossessed!!! She awakes occasionally from the stasis she was placed in and finally awakes on the Galaxy Brides ship.
Alex has attended the breeding festival for 5 years now and still has not found his bride. He leaves the festival and finds Kendall in the forest, who had run away from the Breeding festival and his crystal grows. He vows to protect her from the men who sold her. He ensures her that if they marry he will et her to safety.
There was little interaction with the other brides on the ship in this book, possibly due to Kendalls stay in stasis. Kendall is a very smart adn capable. Her frantic attempts to get back home are to find and help her sister, not a rejection of Alex or his planet as in some of the other stories. Alex understand Kendall’s resistance to their marriage so complications ensue.
Alex is stubborn and a closed off. He and Bron do come over as very chauvinistic and mysoginistic than their royal cousins. There is still lots of adventure and romance. When Kendall discovers just how much time has passed, it is truly heartbreaking. But it is good to know that Margot has her own story!!
