They’ve been missing for a century—an elusive alien species hidden somewhere in the deep expanse of space. Most of the Universe forgot they ever existed at all. So, when a group of Illusians show up on my ship in the middle of the night demanding aid, I risk my life to let them in. They’re beautiful, violent beings. Nearly hunted into extinction by a group of psychopaths dead set on owning and … dead set on owning and selling their females. As if that weren’t bad enough, now the general in charge of my station is blackmailing me, threatening to expel me—or worse—if I don’t comply.
I should protect myself, follow orders, and do as he says. But how can I, when the male leading their race claims me as his?
And I let him.
In the first installment of the Her Illusian Warrior series, can Jayla and Ren survive an insidious plot to destroy the Illusian race and everything they hold dear? Including eachother?

Great, inventive read. Lots to love here, especially the characters!
This was one of the most unique and thrilling alien romances I’ve read in a very long time. Jayla is a kick-butt heroine, and easily as strong (emotionally) as the hero, Ren.
I loved the fact that she could stand up to him, and be both funny and irreverent as she did so. The interplay between the two main characters is crazy hot, and Ren is everything you’d want in an alpha male alien. Possessive, strong, obstinate, and more. To see him grow and change in response to Jayla and how she behaves was amazing.
Add in a sinister plot and some good, old fashioned alien gore, and you’ve got a fantastic book 1 in the series.
I wasn’t sure going in because this is a new author to me but this was a winner. Excellent world building and great characters. Lots of action, twists and turns and whew the sparks! Looking forward to more in the series and glad to have found a new author that writes believable alpha and women that can tame them. (I voluntarily reviewed an ARC).
~Enticing first look at the elusive Illusian warrior race~
—>>> Working on the very isolated Station U as one of two medics, Jayla Shirley and her crew open the bay doors to a group of women and children seeking asylum, and she is the only one who can understand them as well as treat them. When the males of their group are reunited with their, Ren the leader recognizes a mate in Jayla, but has many other pressing matters to contend with. Mainly, being able to leave as soon as possible and disappear in the galaxy.
Jayla proves herself skilled in tending to the injured Illusians, earning their overall trust. But it is not until a high commander appearing at their work station that the whole situation there become even more personally threatening to her amongst her already hostile peers, even more so than aiding the violent aliens themselves.
Jayla’s character is unapologetically fierce, passionate, and thinks outside the box – more than a match for Ren, their most sought after male and leader. I also loved Naya, their devoted female warrior. Lots of conflict aboard from all directions, while the storyline plays out. This is an enticing first look at the elusive Illusian warrior race and their intriguing skills and secrets, and I am definitely looking forward to continuing this series!
Jayla is a medic aboard a space station in a remote part of the solar system. Her job is boring and repetitive. There are many lonely nights with few distractions. Sometimes you get more than you bargain for as Jayla soon finds out.
Jayla is a unique no-nonsense woman that can speak and interpret 15 languages. She is a take charge kind of woman. I like her attitude and her spunk.
One day her boring life changed. A spaceship is coming in and cannot be contacted. To avoid a collision, she must open the space doors and allow them to dock. They are a group of refugees long thought extinct from the planet of Illusia. The Illusian are trying to escape another race that wants to enslave. breed or sell the Illusian women. They meet Naya, a Keeper with the Illusian and Ren, their leader. Ren is a large muscular and handsome man. Jayla is having many naughty thoughts about Ren that she is going to save for all those lonely nights.
Jayla’s language skills come into play as she can speak with and understand the Illusians. She agrees to give them a place to stay until they repair their ship. Many on the space station do not agree with Jayla.
Ren, unmated male finds Jayla irresistible. Many unmated female refugees are unhappy with this situation.
A General arrives shortly after the Illusians and he commandeers everyone’s comm devices and roughs up Jayla for her bad decisions. This does not sit well with Ren. Something about his arrival and the refugee situation seems wrong.
This is a good book. I could not put it down. I want to know more about the Illusians. Where will they go? This book has great characters, intrigue, betrayal and romance. I am eagerly awaiting the next book.
