Description

He's not like anything Lana has ever encountered.

Asset X: Massive, deadly, and a little terrifying to say the least. A devilish warrior, and a killer. Captured on a hellish world after attacking a military campsite and now imprisoned in a state-of-the-art cell inside one of the military’s top bases, Lazris. Lana has been assigned to "study" him; to learn his secrets and gain his trust, if he is ever allowed to set foot out of his cell. As a top behaviorist, it is the biggest hurdle of her career.

Asset X - or Xerus as he is called - won't give up his secrets easily. He is difficult, elusive, and dare she say, unfathomably alluring...despite his seething demeanor and hard, frightening physique. Something subconsciously draws her to him. Something wildly irresistible. Even if his wicked smile and needful gaze could just be a ploy to win her trust and escape his cell. She shouldn't think of him like that. He is an alien after all. And possibly their enemy.

Xerus claims he is on a mission. A mission to destroy. And he cannot afford to fail. If he dares let Lana get close, dares open his cold heart to her, she could compromise everything.

This book contains heated intimate scenes and some violence. It is intended for mature listeners.

As good as Alien/Human romance gets!

The premise is wonderful and the plot twists, fillers in the scenes and lore seem all very appealing. However, as others have pointed the stereotypical female choices and being submissive was the dagger that ruined the vibe. There are other themes at play here which I will not delve to but still - I can recommend because of the amazing voiceover by Maxine Mitchell! I’m a huge fan of her work and this was her best as she voiced multiple characters.

Amazing Read!.

I loved listening to this story! I found that every chapter was eventful and Maxine Mitchell's performance just brought out the awesomeness of this story. The strentght of the main characters reminded me of Clarice and Dr. Hannibal. I would highly, highly recommend this book. 😁

Unexpected

Loved it, in the end. I love the premise of the book and the way it did not go how I assumed it would. I will miss these two and really hope they appear in the next installments.

Well-Written, an On the Edge of Your Seat Thriller, Mostly Horror, With a Touch of Romance...

Weirder is as weirder does, so to speak. If the ending had had the survivors carrying the Spectre, then I would have called this nothing but a Horror. A well-written horror, but a horror nonetheless. You could predict most of the atrocious killings, more than you could predict any survivors. Well read and well-written, with a touch more whimpering than the actual reading indicated, but well-written and well-read nonetheless. Lots of twists and turns, if you aren’t jaded and expecting them. Worth a free read.

Slow burn for sure. Good to pick up if it's free

This was my first sci-fi romance/steamy whatever it's called. I really liked the alien. The protagonist was a typical female, I like how they didn't necessarily describe her physically so you could ascribe her features as you like. I did think she was a bit weak, especially at the end. She took way too long to get the idea to spring into action and spent a bit more time feeling sorry for herself than I'd like. I didn't quite understand the praising at the end about her being strong, brave, etc. because I didn't really get that from her. Certainly no Ellen Ripley.

The narrator was decent. Most of the guys sounded the same, but that wasn't terribly important since they were in and out pretty quickly. She did a great job with the other female character and you could really tell the difference. She also nailed the alien tongue. I kind of wish there was a follow-up book of their adventures afterward. Also, if you're looking for smut, there isn't much. I feel the author could have given us a little more, especially with the long burn.

I found this one free on my Amazon, so I'm glad I grabbed it, but I wouldn't want to pay a full credit for it. Maybe if all of them were in a box set I would.

Stereotypical Female Lead

I am not a fan of the female lead. Her character require s a lot more development. She was a somewhat simpering, illogical , weak willed woman. I was very disappointed, why are some female authors making their female lead the stereotypical woman when we know it's not true. Alana is supposed to be a top tier biologists who have worked previously with the government aka military so I would expect her to be a more hardline person when it came to her job not a simpering mess. She easily panics and doesn't clue in on things easily. Meh! Still not a bad read so I will recommend.

Loved every minute.

It was really well done. I'm not a huge alien book fan. However this good had my heart. It wasn't what I thought it was gonna be and the story was well done.

Slow Burn Hidden Gem

I won't demean it by saying "this story is way better than it has any right to be", so I'm going with "this is an actual hidden gem in a sea of wonderfully silly sci-fi/fantasy erotica". Usually slow-burns aren't my thing, but after a certain point I realized not only was I not impatient, but INVESTED, and had to acknowledge that this was, in fact, just plain good.

The author really fleshes out the setting and premise, and I want to give heads up that this is much more a fully fledged story + romance, not smut (and I enjoy smut, but if you're going in expecting smut, this probably ain't it). I liked how unhurried and organic the bond between the leads is as it develops, and there are a couple plot points which, I can't speak for you, but they both got me. There's some genuinely good action and suspense in the back half there too.

And just a side note, I had some reservations about there only being a female narrator, but she actually gives the male alien lead this, to me, delightfully androgynous, otherworldly quality. And her pronunciation of his language is...pretty delicious.

So yeah. Strong A from me, especially considering I was not geared for a slow burn immersive romance when I clicked 👍

Great story dark and steamy!

Great story ... amazing book in the series or as a standalone. Narrator Maxine Mitchell brought a dark and steamy energy. Passionate from start to finish can't wait for the next book.
