Abducted from Earth and transported to a slave planet in an
unknown galaxy, Lumen finds herself, shackled, naked and put on display before
an alien horde. Told the males will battle for the right to slake their lusts
with her body, she would become the slave of slaves.
Venomous One, a proud warrior enslaved, has given up hope of
returning to his home world and finding a life mate. When a female is tossed
into the arena his soul demands he claim her. Winning his mate by Right of
Might, he vows to protect Lumen and be a good provider, no matter how ugly her
human appearance.
Soon Lumen and Venomous One were rescued by Venomous’ people;
the couple faces space pirates, the condemnation of an alien government,
galactic war, and a deadlier threat from within the warrior’s own kindred.
I like Lumen as a character;
I found her funny, snarky, sarcastic, and mentally strong considering what she
has been through. She is realistic and not to overly whiny as many female leads
of this type of story can be. At least no whinier then a normal person would be when faced with the non-choices she was. I especially liked how she blossomed as a person under the love of her mates.
I wasn’t sure what to
think of Venomous as a character at first, but the more I got to know him the
more I liked him. My favorite characters of this book are tied between
Venomous, Cobra, and Beowyn all for different reasons. You would most likely
understand why once you give this book a spin, I would defiantly recommend.
Infatuation – You would read this story every chance you
could.
