Ristéard’s Unwilling Empress Lords of Kassis, Book 4 By S.E. Smith

Ristéard’s Unwilling Empress is book 4 in the Lord of Kassis series by S.E. Smith. This novel has adult concepts so be warned.

This story begins 24 years before River's Run with the abandonment of baby Ricky-Rose Bailey by her biological father. It is shown that he abandons her for her own safety. Fast forward 24 years, she and her parents decide to leave Earth for the planet Kassis. Soon Ricky comes to the attention of Risteard Roald, a powerful and deadly ruler of the Elpidios, a planet that is slowly dying without the bloodstones needed to absorb the radiation gradually destroying its stratosphere.

I enjoyed the thought that went into this book, it is very hard to find a story in the Alien/Human Woman genre that is more than just sex, sex, and more sex. This series actually has a story! One I actually understood and enjoyed. Ms. Smith is excellent at bringing us a world filled with suspense, some mystery, action, romance, and sometimes even comedy.

Cudos to you S.E. Smith!

Star’s Storm Lords of Kassis, Book 2 By S.E. Smith

Star's Storm is book 2 in the Lord of Kassis series written by the lovely S.E. Smith. This book does include Adult content, so be warned. This book starts us off with the arrival of Storm and her sister's to the Kassis planet.

Jazin Ja Kel Coradon is the third son of the ruling House of Kassis and the story's love interest. I found him as a character to be less annoying then the first books love interest. The plot was well well thought out and well written I enjoyed this book greatly.

Alien abduction + Love and circus performers + Sex = A great story!

I rate this Light Reading - Can be finished in one sitting.

Not Quite Terran Part One by Erin Tate

Rebecca's job is to keep unsanctioned aliens off Rilli Space Station. Then she meets Karru C'Hali, a male from a race that isn't supposed to exist. He's heavily muscled, gorgeous, seductive... and unsanctioned.

***Not Quite Terran is written in the short story serial format.***

“Not quite Terran is a five-part serial series with part one through three already published with part four and five on its way. Erin Tate has shown great promise as a new author in the sci-fi genre. She writes characters that are/can be realistic personality wise. Her female lead Rebecca is rather enjoyable as a character. Karru C'Hali is portrayed as extremely vulnerable, powerful, kind of bashful and in no way arrogant. He was one of my favorites in this series. I would totally recommend you pick up the series, you won't be disappointed.”


I rate this light reading... You can finish each part within an hour or two.

1. Not Quite Terran Part One

Vados (The Ujal #1) by Erin Tate

A human woman, a tail-sporting alien, and a deadly hurricane… of course, they’re going to hook up!

Or rather, they did hook up. But that was then. This is now.

As a marine biologist, Maris Xayer is used to observing all types of marine life, but she never imagined she’d come face to tail with an Ujal. In the middle of a hurricane, Maris and Vados came together—ahem—and then he disappeared. She figured it was a one-storm stand with an Ujal and moved on. Except that Vados hadn’t really gone anywhere and now the sexy as sin, red-skinned Ujal is back, for her.

**This is a stand-alone 37-page SHORT STORY.**

This is a great but quick read for the sci-fi romance lover. This is the first book I have read by Erin Tate and I have not been disappointed. I will definitely return to this author for other books. The characters were well developed and dialogue well thought out. I would definitely recommend this story to others. Can't wait for the next in the series I will definitely read it.
