Paranormal Dragonshifter Romance
Repossessed…
Kendall Haven’s life turns upside down when she’s kidnapped off her fueling dock home by thugs claiming to have the right. Her father, the gambler, used her to cover his losses at the Larceny Casino Ship. Drugged and treated like cargo, she’s sold to the highest bidder—Galaxy Brides Corporation.
Landing on a primitive planet on the far edge of the … on the far edge of the universe, she has no intention of fulfilling her father’s contract—even if that contract includes marriage to a very handsome, very sexy, very intense barbarian of a man. He might be everything a woman fantasizes about, but he wants a little more than she can give.
Possession…
Lord Alek, Younger Duke of Draig, has not been lucky in finding his life mate. Resigned to a lonely life, he attends the bridal ceremony out of familial duty. Then the impossible happens—Kendall. Nothing goes according to tradition, but he can’t let that dissuade him. She is his only chance at happiness, and no matter how she protests, he’s not going to let her get away.
Warning: The book contains a hard-headed sexy alpha male who will win his chosen woman at any cost and an even harder-headed woman who won’t make his task easy.

Action packed, emotional roller-coaster filled with witty and engaging charters, heart racing twists and thrilling turns. Was a great read from beginning to end and so hard to put down.
Sweet and steamy! Enjoy the alien world setting! In this book, Kendall’s father owes a lot of money, so he sells Kendall into slavery. Luckily for her, she ends up as part of the parade of possible brides for an alien race and the alien that ends up choosing her, Alek, is a good guy alien. Unfortunately, Kendall is adamant that she needs to return back home because she wants to be there for her young sister. It’s understandable that she wants to be there for her sister, but it’s really annoying that Kendall was still willing to be friendly with her dad; the idiot sold you into slavery for goodness sake. Despite her one track mind to go home, I did like Kendall. Alek is likable as well, and they do have some good chemistry. These stories sort of intertwine with the characters and storylines, so you may want to read the previous books, but this worked fine as a standalone too. Overall, an entertaining alien romance with some steam!
I liked Kendall and Alex. There were times I felt bad for Alex like I seem to do for all of these alien teddy bears. The way he dealt with the situation, even when bleak, caused me to like him more. This group of brides doesn’t seem as obnoxious as the ones the princes were stuck with. I liked Kendall and understood her drive to get off the planet. I also like that it wasn’t hot and cold with her. She liked Alex, but she was driven by her need to get off-planet more. She was upfront about it, though lacking in the details department. I liked the writing and flow and look forward to the next book. 3.5 stars

This is the 6th Dragon Lord novel in the Qurilixen World series and another success for Michelle. This one concerns Kendall Haven and Lord Alek.
Kendall is given to some thugs by her father to cover his gambling losses. She is then sold to the highest bidder–an alien bride procurement agency. Dragon-shifter nobleman Lord Alek after failing to find his fated mate attends the bridal ceremony out of familial duty with little hope of finding a bride. Then he meets Kendall and is determined not to let her go no matter how she feels.
I found myself engrossed in reading this story following the ups and downs of their strange courtship.

Love and Family
This story has a few dark spots, but there’s plenty of sweetness as well (and, of course, a happily ever after). My favourite part of this book is a truly poignant quote: “I love you, but more than that, I appreciate you.” Kendall and Alek’s story was well written and easy to read, and it’s builds the tension in the larger story arc of the Qurilixen World Series.
This is a wonderful rea that you will not be able to put down once you start reading
Kendall Havens has had her life turned upside down and inside out after her father has used her to cover his losses and now, she is nothing more than an object sold to the highest bidder.
She finds herself on a planet she has never heard of and she has not the slightest intent to cover her father’s debts by selling herself, he can go to hell first.
Then a Dragon Shifter by the name of Lord Alek has never found his mate and is totally surprised when it appears that the human female may in fact be the female, he has been searching all his life for, who would ever have thought.
This is a captivating read that will keep you guessing from start to finish and you will enjoy every moment.
I voluntarily received and review an Advanced Reader Copy
I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the great writing
she is the daughter of a gambler and is taken to pay for his debts. Alek is attending another breeding festival to find his mate which he thinks is hopeless until he finds her hiding. I always say communication is the biggest thing in a relationship and these two really need to learn how to. This one has drama, suspense, action. Keeps you intrigued

I enjoyed this book and the actual plot line. I did have some issues with some of the characters and the way they acted. I didn’t really like some of them. But some of the others I really did like so it balanced out
This book is entertaining and filled with action and adventure. The chemistry and interaction between the characters is great. I can’t wait for more from this author. I received this book as a FREE ARC copy to read and I voluntarily leave this review.
Kendall Haven spent all her live on board ships and docking stations her family owned a fueling dock she has never spend any time on worlds. So when her father looses her because of a gambling addiction and he uses her as collateral and the collectors come to collect the transaction does don’t go well, I mean why would it her father of all people used her to cover he’s debt. Kendall wakes some time after only to learn she has been sold of to Galaxy Bride’s and she doesn’t know how much time she has lost while but in stasis. She only knows one thing she needs to get back and hopefully save her younger sister from the same fate .
Lord Alek young Duke of Draig has attended a few of the bridal ceremonies before with no luck of a bride why should this year be any different he attends only because of duty to his family and of his people. He however meets his bride in the woods near the ceremony will she tries and runs away. When the two meet and wed some time after ,Kendall begs and pleas with Alek that she needs to leave for home and explains to him why he is only happy to help and hopes he does not loose her. She learns of her fathers fate he has passed on and has lost her sister to the same way he has lost her. She is some what broken heart that she does not find her there. Will she ever find Alek assures her they will he will do whatever is in his and his family power to find her. She also realizes how much she truly loves Alek and what is is to be truly loved and cared for it gives her hope that one day her sister and her will be reunited again and she to will feel what it is to be loved and cared for by family.
There is a lot more to this story then of what I speak but I don’t want to tell all so just pick up the book and read for yourself it will be worth it.
I really liked the Princes’ books but their cousins’ books seem to have rushed endings and cliff hangers (so far). I found Kendall to be a strong person doing everything she can to keep her family together and when her ne’er do well father uses her as collateral, she does everything in her power to get back to her sister. Alek starts out as a trickster, willing to do anything to keep Kendall and morphs to a true mate that will do anything to keep his mate.
The book starts strong with interesting characters with unique circumstances. I kind of rushed through the middle wanting something to happen. When Kendall finally sets out on her journey (with Alex by her side), the story picked up with some major revelations and then the story ended. Alex and Kendall are together but a major part of the story was left hanging.
I liked the underlying threat that continued in the Princes’ books but the individual cliffhangers of the Lords’ books are a bit frustrating. Overall, worth the read.
I enjoyed reading this very unique, fascinating dragon shifter romance & this book can easily stand on its own although it does basically run concurrently with the other books in this series & covers different couples in each of them. The plot has a bit of a emotional undertone that reflect throughout the storyline & there is well-described, intriguing situations and/or events. The characters have interesting personalities that continue to develop throughout the storyline.
It is about: a young woman (Kendall Haven) studying to become a station engineer, is used by her despicable father (Haven) to cover his gambling debts & she is later sold to the “Galaxy Brides Corporation”. Kendall finds herself on a barbarian planet (Qurilixian) where she tries to escape & is helped by a dragon shifter (a Duke, Lord Aleksej aka Alek) naturally things don’t go according to her plans when Alek chooses her for his bride.
There is: family issues, a bridal ceremony, Draigs (dragon shifters), Vars (cat shifters), devious aliens (Tyoe), fated mates, adventure, action, intrigue, suspense, twists & turns, drama, family betrayal, secrets, mystery, threats, danger, devious intentions, abduction, manipulations, escape, vulnerability, fear, unexpected help, complications, distrust, disagreements, defiance, confusion, communication issues, worry, desperation, emotional turmoil, determination, contentment, some steamy scenes & a satisfying conclusion for this couple with a interesting ending. I look forward to the next book in this series with great anticipation & would recommend this book.
This is going to be a short review because if I get going, I won’t stop & I’ll end up spoiling the whole book. This is by far my most favorite one yet!
This story is about Lord Alek and Kendall. My heart broke because of Alek’s loneliness until finding Kendall & I was truly appalled by what Kendall’s dad did until……..they found each other in an unconventional way. The series world is opened up in this book is well which makes it an even better read.
Their relationship made my heart happy from beginning to end and I can’t wait to read the next book!
I Love This Series! Another Great Book!

This book covered a lot of topics including emotional availability and communication. What I like most is the female characters are capable and knowledgeable and although they need help they are not helpless.

I read this book in a day. It follows along in the Dragon Lords series, this set of four features the King’s nephews. This one centers on Lord Aleksej and Kendall Haven. There were several things I liked about this book (and this series). First, the women in this series are smart, and aren’t needy or clingy or make dumb decisions. Kendall works at her father’s space fueling station and is basically the one holding it together as her father is an alcoholic and gambler. She’s studying for an advanced degree in ‘Fuelology’, and takes care of her half-sister Margot, to boot. She is taken unwillingly from her home by men who come to collect her as part of her fathers gambling debt, held in stasis for who knows how long, and eventually sold to Galaxy Brides. Second, there is always a strong theme of family loyalty and love in the books, this one is no exception, and finally, the stories are engaging, this one in particular has a good bit of mystery. If you like steamy, fast-paced fantasy with some intriguing twists and well-done characters, you’ll like this book!
