She’ll do anything to free her sister and save the Earth from invasion, even if she’s blackmailed into stealing sacred alien artifacts…and becomes the prey of the dark, deadly warrior sent to hunt her down.Special Forces Space Marine Lara Traynor wants to save her sister and her planet from annihilation by the deadly insectoid Kantos. Earth’s Space Corps give her one option: steal three gems … three gems sacred to the Eon Warriors. Lara has never failed a mission and she doesn’t plan to start now. What she doesn’t expect is the big, hard-bodied warrior the Eon sent to stop her.
Security Commander Caze Vann-Jad was born and raised to be the best Eon warrior in the empire. Honed by the military academy, his years as a stealth agent, and by his hard warrior father, he has never failed. He knows one weak, inferior Terran is no match for him. But when he finds himself face to face with the tough, skilled Lara, he realizes he’s underestimated the female warrior.
When they are attacked by a Kantos kill squad, it soon becomes clear that the Kantos are planning something far darker and dangerous. Caze and Lara are forced to change their dangerous battle of wits and skill into a fierce battle for survival. Neither of these fighters believe in love, but on the trail of a stolen gem, they will ignite an unstoppable desire, and discover that not only are their lives at stake, but their hearts as well.
Includes a preview of Galactic Gladiators #1, Gladiator.

Touch Of Eon is book two in the Eon Warriors series by Anna Hackett.
We continue on to meet Eve’s older sister, Lara, who has also been blackmailed by earth government into stealing the 3 Eon Gems. The thing is she has no idea that her mission is needless; since her sister Eve, in Edge of Eon, has saved herself.
Lara is determined to do this mission even if it costs her. She is full of surprises as she tricks, steals, and bamboozles the warrior who’s been sent to hunt her down, bring her to her sister, and collect the gems back.
Caze doesn’t fail. To him his mission and calling are everything, but this one human women is starting to have him question himself.
Things don’t go as planned for either; Lara or Caze in that the Kantos, bug aliens, end up getting in the way and causing trouble. We go on an adventure of non-stop proportions. Lots of battles and hunting take places. It’s got action, adventure, and some sexy alien times.
As for the romance; Lara and Caze do their fair share of sparing and working together; before figuring out that there is more to live than duty.
The only thing about this one was I wasn’t as in like with Lara. She’s a good character, but something about her bothered me. I will say I loved the introduction to the next sister, Wren, and her story that is to come. I enjoy when an author weaves characters in to get you ready and hooked for the next book.
I’m really liking this series. The sisters are enjoyable; each with their own personalities. There is no shortage of world building, character development, and action to keep you entertained.
Touch Of Eon was another fabulous adventure in the Eon Warriors series and I can’t wait to continue on. Anna Hackett is a must read for any Science Fiction Romance fans. She has a way of pulling you into the world, characters, story, and romance.
Rated: 4 Stars
Special Forces Space Marine Lara Treynor has been tasked to steal three sacred gems from the Eon. She knows it’s a bad idea but she has to protect her sisters and the planet. What she doesn’t expect is the Eon warrior sent to stop her.
Lara was a dangerous woman who was determined to see her mission through. She was dedicated, hard working, and could kick some major ass. She has dedicated her life to taking care of everyone else so as you can imagine she holds a lot of her pain inside. Caze was the perfect partner for Lara because he let her fight her own battles but would still comfort and support her.
Caze is a protective alpha male who is used to everyone obeying him. He doesn’t know what to do with Lara at first. She constantly was challenging him and disobeying his orders. He needs a mate who will support him but also challenge him and Lara was that mate. These two were a kickass couple who did some major damage to the Kantos.
This book also gave us more information on the Kantos and what they are planning to do. This bug-like species is both fascinating and disgusting. I can always count on Hackett to create interesting alien enemies. This book was packed with action, romance, and lots of aliens. I cannot wait to read the next one.
So glad I started this series! I love the badass heroines! Lara just cracked me up every time she first came up against Caze. Caze and Lara are just perfect together. Sorry, I’m keeping this super short because I’m super eager to start Wren’s book. Sounds like she’s really driving the commander nuts!
Touch of Eon is the second book in the Eon Warriors series. Lara has been tasked with stealing the sacred gems from the Eon in exchange for her sister’s freedom, but Caze won’t let her succeed. He’s been sent by her sister to stop her, but he’s drawn to Lara. Soon they’re in over their heads with passion and danger, but will they have a chance at their future before the Kantos catch up to them?
Oh my goodness, what an emotional ride Lara and Caze have! There’s so much fighting and danger and passion that explodes between them, and I loved every second I spent in this book! I think my favorite aspect about this book is that both characters are such Warriors in their own right, and they’re drawn to each other’s strength, determination, smarts, and of course, their desire to one up one another was super fun, too! Lara is so self-sufficient, but has such a big heart. She didn’t think herself capable of love, but I enjoyed watching her fall for her big, bad Eon Warrior. Caze is hyper focused on his job and training, so it was fun to see how Lara crashed into his controlled life with her love of sensation and boldness of flavors and I loved his protective nature. They made such a great team, fighting, navigating, protecting, and loving. This series is fast paced, full of action and adventure, and one that I’ll reread often! I look forward to reading the next book!
Loved the characters and the story. They were lots of fun and I laughed alot. So hoping that there will be many more books to come!
This second book in this series had almost too much action. I don’t like bugs or any creepy crawly thing.
I do like Caze and Lara and I’m glad that they came out on top.
Baby sister, Wren’s, story should be good. She’s supposed to be more of a tech warrior than a fighting one.
Excellent action romance in space
Touch of Eon (eon Warriors 2) continues the action and conflict between the insectoid Kantos and Earth, with Lara Traynor on a mission get the attention of and an eventual alliance with the Eon Empire. She’s been ordered to steal their three sacred jewels, and she’s got 2 out 3 when Eon warrior Caze catches up with her. They become frenemies during the cat-and-mouse jewel heist, but when they are trapped together on a remote survival training planet used by elite Eon warriors, it’s frenemies-to-lovers, all for one and one for all, as the planet, and the Kantos, throw all manner of lethal challenges their way. The repartee is spicy, the romance is steamy, the situation is dire and deadly – can HEA be far behind? Trademark Anna Hackett world-building, a heroine who kicks butt and takes names right along with the hero, and non-stop action will keep you entertained.
This book was awesome! Tara is who I want to be when I grow up. Full of determination, instinct and guts. The dynamic between her and Case often had me smiling and egging her on. I have to say the scene on the bridge was scorching. Not to mention the bath scene. Well written from the first page this one is intense. I loved it!
This second installment in the Eon Warriors series is like the previous one, a full action-packed romance with two badass characters.
While they began their journey on a merry chase, Caze running after Lara, they soon have to join force against the ugly insect-like aliens, the Kantos.
From the beginning they go along very well, matched in combat tactics, and competing in stubbornness, their lack of faith in love is also why it was so sweet to see them so quickly fall for another.
They are two lonely souls, each having faced a challenging and far from easy upbringing which left deep scars in their mind.
I loved following their journey to retrieve the Eon’s artefacts which lead them to discover more about themselves.
One more very entertaining read by Mrs Anna Hackett.
Touch Of Eon is the 2nd book in Ms. Hackett’s Eon Warriors Series. As usual her writing is bang on! There’s all the action, thrills, sexy hot men and strong women that have you turning the pages late into the night! I can’t wait until the next book!
For adult readers
Caze is an Eon Warrior. Caze is only interested in his mission and the security of his ship and captain. Caze was raise to feel nothing but loyalty.
Lara is a Terran warrior, raised herself with 2 sisters because her dad died and her mom fell into a bottle. Who will win when these two collide?
Great story. They have much in common, yet learn much from each other. This is book 2 is this series, but can be read as a stand alone with no problem.
Loved this story. Awesome characters. Great dialogue. Totally loved this story and recommend it.

The next Traynor sister is on the scene and causing mayhem for these poor Alpha aliens!
Lara is a tough, battle-hardened Space Marine. She takes crap from no-one and can give as good as she gets. But her weak spots are her sisters, which Earth authorities are not above manipulating. Lara slips through Eon space stealing the Eon’s sacred gems and leading Caze in a merry dance.
Caze is not used to feisty females leading him by the nose! He thought that dealing with Eve was bad enough but Lara pushes all his buttons. She is strong, determined and stubborn. When they grudgingly join forces to keep the Kantos from getting the jewels he also realises that her love for her sisters is deep. Almost as deep as the hurt she likes to lay on him, the female is not pulling her punches!
Sneaking aboard Kantos Ships, blood churning laboratories, very Lara Croft-esque raiding of temples – there is something to delight everyone! Lara thinks love ruins your life and Caze has never experienced any kind of softness so they are a bit of a pair.
Wren is next up and I cannot wait to see how this little mouse of a nerd has been leading a whole starship full of warriors around by the computer she holds!
TOUCH OF EON explodes with suspense, spine-chilling action, life-threatening moments & soul-stirring moments. Breathtaking descriptions had me visualizing each scene and the sizzling romance had my heart racing. This thrilling read kept my total attention until the end.
Security Commander Caze Vann-Jad Eon Warrior is hunting Lara Traynor to retrieve the scared gems she has stolen. He believes this to be an effortless job. Upon meeting Lara, he is shocked to his core that she is a powerful military fighter. Lara finds pleasure fighting the sultry tough warrior. These two have to conquer many hurdles before they get to their happy ending.
AWESOME read with credible characters and fabulous storyline. I relished the witty banter between Lara and Caze. Both can be tough as nails and then protective, sweet, and loving. The chemistry between Lara and Caze bursts with devotion. This is one of the best science fiction stories I read to date. {On a voluntary basis I reviewed a pre-release copy.}
This book takes off with Lara stealing a precious gem and Caze hot on her heels.
This second book in the Eon Universe is full of twists and turns that the two of them must navigate through to the happily ever after.
I Highly Recommend It!
This can be read as a standalone, but it is even better after reading the first book in the series. The story is filled with action, humor, alien creatures, strong heroine, sexy hero, twists, and romance. The Lara and Caze get their HEA ending, but the major story arc continues in the next book which will feature the third Traynor sister with her own Eon Warrior.
As the elder of the Traynor sister’s Lara was used to be in charge and take care of everything. Strong, decided, fearless and resourceful she was up to any challenge and she would not fail her mission to save her sister. As an Eon warrior Caze Vann-Jad had been taught the Terrans were weak and undisciplined but the woman was challenging him, and he was kind of confused? The action and the suspense were Super! Followed each narration and description with exciting emotion. What a pair! Intense with strong emotions, violence, horrible Kantos monsters, never ending danger, romance and passion. If Eve and Lara were the strong, super trained and skillful warriors what surprise is expecting us with the crazy -goods skills of the baby sister? Can’t wait for Wren’s book.
This book is the second in this series and they just keep getting better. Can’t wait for the next book. Anna Hackett you’ve done it again GREAT book! I received this book as a FREE ARC copy to read and I voluntarily leave this review.
An exciting addition to an impressive series!
The Traynor sisters are a force to be reckoned with! I love that Lara manages to evade her pursuer and get away with her prize, even though Caze is bigger, stronger, faster! When things get tough, they work together. Oh, the trouble they get into! Caze is amazing; strong, wicked fast, protective, and sexy. He and Lara make a great team.
I love this book! There is incredible action that keeps you reading nonstop (and there are scary parts). Definitely a must-read!
Second in the series, Touch continues the theme of a strong woman who is just as much a warrior as the hero. Big sister, Lara, is sent to steal from the Eon Empire and meets her match in Caze. These two have chemistry that is off the charts and like Eve (Lara’s sister from Edge of Eon) Lara can give as good as she gets. The action is fast, the down time is steamy and we are shown a bit more of what the bad guys are working for. Great book. Enjoy!
