Alek ,the stubborn prince, never stood a chance. Kendall’s back story was so sad (who would want their life stolen from them)before landing on Qurilixen – but she is strong and resilient. Even while rooting for them, I worried at first about Alek and if they could find a way to be together with Kendall vow to find her sister. However Alek really stepped up. The world building continues as does the unknown threat that still needs to be dealt with but the heat is nice and steamy along the way.

Kendall is sure things can’t get much worse and then she’s taken by thugs as collateral for her dad’s gambling debts. She’s then auctioned and sold off to an alien bride procurement agency, basically she’s gonna be given as a bride for a primitive alien male. She’s got no intention of being a bride to anyone, alien or not, and there’s no way in hell she’s going to go along with the contract. Lord Alek is hotter than hot, he’s convinced he will never find his mate, then he goes to a bridal ceremony and sees Kendall and it’s like love at first sight for him. It’s going against tradition but Alek wants his mate to want him as much as he wants her. He’s gonna have to work at it but before long she’s like putty in his hands, and mouth.
This is a steamy shifter romance, it’s got fated mates and a happily ever after ending. Like the rest of the books in this series, this is a must read for sure.

The story of Kendall and Alek, an alien Lord. She has been taken from her world to pay for her fathers gambling debt, then sent to the Breeding Festival on Quilixen. Alek finds her and senses his mate so he keeps her safe. Miscommunication abounds as they come to an agreement of her marriage to him. She wants to go home, which he does not understand until she finally confesses she has a sister who is in danger as well. Alek is a male who takes charge of situations and Kendall is just as determined. The characters are terrific, highly detailed with intense emotions and feelings. The storyline is fast paced with a lot of depth and backstories. Could not put this book down and enjoyed every minute of it. Well done.

Great story! This book didn’t disappoint — I really enjoyed it from start to finish. Alek and Kendall are a great pairing. This book was well written with just the right amount of action, romance, and light humor. As always, I am looking forward to the next book in the series!

Kendal Haven is the daughter of a drunken gambler. In order for her father to cover his debts, Kendal finds herself signed over to the casino he owes money to. She is “sold” many times over and wakes up on the Galaxy Brides ship headed for Quilixen. Alek, second Duke of Draig and nephew to the king and queen, is attending his fifth Breeding Festival. He has given up all hope of finding his mate and does not want to attend the festival. Kendall ran from the ship and tries to hide in the forest where Alek finds her and takes her back to his tent because he is afraid to have her go through the receiving line and lose her now that he has finally found her. Even though they have incredible chemistry, all Kendal can think about is going home to find her sister Margot and asks for help to find transport off the planet. There isn’t a lot of communication between the two. He doesn’t explain what it means for him to marry him and then have her leave, and she just keeps saying she has to leave but doesn’t explain that it is to save her sister from being given as payment for gambling debts as she was.
Great story where the guy gets the girl in the end. You are left with a question mark about Margot. But hopefully there is a book about her that I haven’t come across yet.

Fifth Time’s the Charm
Michelle M. Pillow’s fifth book in her ‘Dragon Lords’ series is racing up the charts. Alek and Kendall, the main characters, may have feelings for each other but who could tell because of their miscommunications. If they would just talk to each other honestly from their heart, things would be a whole lot smoother. Great and exciting adventures with these two characters. Highly recommended and definitely a MUST read!
This author is definitely on the top of my list! I loved this book and was blown out of the water by the amazing storyline. I was hooked from page one and read it in one sitting. This book is a must read!

I enjoyed this book! I felt that these characters have depth and they both are just trying to make it. I love this world, its creative and engaging and Michelle brings it with all her stories! She does not disappoint. It flows throughout the story and is really a remarkable read filled with drama and sass, but will have you rooting for these characters from the first page! I absolutely love this world and these characters!

The Stubborn Lord is the sixth book in Pillow’s Dragon Lords series, and is the second book in the royal cousins/nephews arc of the series. It’s the story of Kendall and Alek, and it’s a rough one indeed. Kendall ends up on Qurilixen because her father loses her over a gambling debt. She’s confused, upset, and has a burning need to get back home and rescue her little sister. Alek, who has been waiting for years for his mate to show up, is ecstatic of course, but like older brother Bron’s ceremony, Alek’s night doesn’t go in the traditional manner. Because of mistakes he makes, Alek understands immediately that he needs to get Kendall where she has to go. This is the first time readers really see the more futuristic aspects of the Qurilixen Worlds and the universe around them, and that’s a fun adventure. Like so many of the Dragon Lords, Alek faces the knowledge that losing Kendall will leave him alone for the rest of his life – something his bride doesn’t quite understand.
The Stubborn Lord is an intriguing twist to the series with new attitudes and settings, though there is some repetition of the events of the previous book, featuring Alek’s brother Bron and his bride. The repeated events do seem to stretch out a bit, but I don’t know that they’d be at all bothersome unless the reader were binging the series, where it probably stands out more. I really liked Alek’s refreshing determination and his adaptability to meet his mate’s needs, and felt for Kendall, whose situation is painful for her and for the reader. Pillow does a good job working from what could be a very problematic start to her time on Qurilixen, giving her a lot of agency throughout the story. I also very much enjoyed the time Alek spends with his brothers. The overarching issues introduced in book 5 are developed further in this installment of the series, and though this book ends with some questions, it also introduces some new characters and ideas that this reader, for one, is eager to see developed throughout the various other Qurilixen Worlds stories. I very much enjoyed this Dragon Lords installment, and am looking forward to book 7 in the series!

Gosh I love this world and the Draig. Alek goes to yet another mating festival although he is convinced that he will never find a mate so actually leaves before the brides show. Despite this it seems that the gods have smiled on him as he finds his mate right in the middle of the forest where he want to escape. He finds out that Kendall did not have a choice in being a bride and has had a truly hard upbringing. She is desparate to go back and save her sister. Completely in love with is wife he agrees to help her get back with the knowledge that she will leave him to go back to his lonely life only now he will also grieve for her loss and for all that could have been. Fate or the Gods brought them together, will it push them apart or keep them as one?
I love the Qruilixen mating ritual and how each book in the series interacts with the others. Each female mate is unique in the traits that she brings to the Draig. Those traits can help the Draig, yet they are also what keep the females from wanting to mate. Kendall hoped to finish her schooling in her chosen field of study, but instead she found herself a potential bride, and her story gets wilder with each little bit told. Although Alek was stubborn, he was willing to give up everything for his bride. I can’t wait to see where the next book leads us.

The sixth book in the Dragon Lords series a well written story in the Qurilixen World that kept me turning pages. Dragon-shifter nobleman Lord Alek and human Kendall Haven’s story has suspense, kidnapping, drama, danger, twists, turns, and romance. We find out that Kendall also has a missing sister Margot, that has not been found. I want to read the next book. I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
The Stubborn Couple . . .
Kendall Haven is being treated like property as her father uses her to cover his gambling debt. She is kidnapped by the now “rightful owners” and sold to the highest bidder, which happens to be Galaxy Brides Corporation. Before she knows what is going on, she is shipped to a primitive planet on the edge of the universe, expected to fulfilling her father’s contract with the casino!
The alien that wants her is Lord Alek, Younger Duke of Draig. He had almost given up on finding his life mate. Then he finds Kendall. Seeing her as his one and only chance at happiness, he refuses to let her get away. Will he win her love? Will she give up her stubborn refusal and give him a chance to prove himself worthy?
Part of the series of the Draig on Qurilixen World and this is Lord Aleksej, Younger Duke of Draig, and Kendall Haven, fueling dock operator, story. So Kendall’s dad is a horrible gambler and he loses a lot. And he even uses his two daughters as bets. Yes, Father of the Year Award there. However, Kendall has been managing the fueling dock, getting an education and caring for her younger sister Margot since Margot’s mother passed away. She is older than the other Galaxy Brides in our story at the age 30, however she like the others “feel” her one true mate. This is beautiful how each couple fall in love. In the other Dragon Lord stories we as readers get snippets and introductions to these other characters and even though most overlap, we learn how these brides end up as brides. This story paints a clearer picture of the nephews of the King and Queen. I love happy endings and yes we are left wondering about Margot but our author does tell us she gets her own story in Space Lords: His Metal Maiden.

I love this author’s world building! Kendalls story of being used to pay off her father’s gambling debt is so dystopian. Adding that Alek and the population of Qurillixia have no idea that some brides are not willing adds some intrigue. When they meet, Alek will do everything to keep her, even leave the planet. Such a great story! Can’t wait til the next!

From the very beginning I felt Alek’s pain and longing. He has a strong belief in his gods and thinks he is being punished. Kendall woke up on the Galaxy Brides ship heading to Qurilixen, not knowing how she got there. Alek and Kendall’s meet cute is not cute, but with her growing up on the fueling station she reacts better than most. Having read many of the previous books I feel like I’ve been to Qurilixen. Even if this was your first book though the descriptions of the planet, the castles, and the animals is rich and colorful making you feel like you can see it. This story is sometimes sad but this culture clash is also funny and heartwarming, and in the end you can’t help smiling.

I received this book for Free to Give My True & Honest Review in kindle mode & saw that the audio was there so I brought that.
The novel is an alright read though I personally didn’t enjoy it as much as I did STRANDED WITH THE CAJUN.
The characters are from other Worlds & Outerspace where it seems humans can live freely.
Here we have Human Kendall who is from a metal Docking Station in outerspace & then her Father Haven SOLD her to cover his gambling debts.
And she has no clue where’s she’s going & who’s actually taken her, as she’s been in statis where she’s being drugged asleep for the majority of her ‘travels’
But it’s when the final ship she was in was stopping for the women to become for these strangers in this strange world.
This World is the land of the unknown Dragon Shifters & whilst she was running away she was saved by this Dragon Man Alek & he told her she was His Wife.
so it’s when she’s there for the short period of timethat things change ESPECIALLY when she goes back home to save her 13 yrs old sister Margot before her father exchanges Her for his gambling Debts.
And it’s here when she gets back to her home place things changes EVEN MORE….
