Erotic Space Opera Romance published by Ascendant Press 12 Oct 21
I love space opera and there are never enough of them around. So when I see one, I am definitely in. Ms. Navarre is a new-to-me author and new to this genre, but I am definitely looking forward to reading this series and anything else she writes in this genre, while also exploring other books by her.
Fate has finally caught up with Kaia and she’s to be auctioned off to one of 500 men vying for her hand in marriage and her body in chains. Since her sister is the hostage to her good behavior, Kaia has no choice but to submit to the circus she’s caught up in, but she definitely does not make things easy for the three men who stroke her libido and maybe even her heart.
The first man, Dex Draven, is her Tombola master. Having made a treaty with her father, he captures her and conducts the auction for her hand on board his ship. The chemistry and pheromones between them are off the charts, but, due to his role in this auction, he cannot be her suitor, even as his mating musk coats her body.
The second man, Ben Nero, is her soul mate. Having abandoned her and let her believe him for dead, he’s now a powerful man and playing neutral to Dex in the Tombola. He’s another man who once held her heart but cannot bid for her hand. Yet the two of them find opportunities to play the naughty.
The final man and the one most likely to win the contest for her hand is Zorin, the leader of a band of pirates. He promises Kaia the one thing she wants over all others: domination but no chains. He’s strong and powerful and can more than hold his own against the other two men, who are stealing pieces of Kaia’s heart, as well as the 500 contestants in the Tombola.
What makes the story even more interesting is the history and the chemistry between Zorin, Ben, and Dex. Can Kaia have the unthinkable – three men in her bed and in her heart and a prophesied son to rule her galaxy in peace?
Since Part 1 ends on a cliffhanger, we’ll have to wait and see what happens. This is an erotic romance with MMMF steamy action. I am now fascinated and can’t wait to see how this will play out.
Grade: A
Summary:
In a galactic mating contest where desire can be deadly, the only guys she wants are the three she can never trust.
In a faraway galaxy on the edge of apocalypse, cyber samurai Kaia of Kryll is the daughter of a tyrant who’s worshipped as a god by billions. A prison sentence she’ll kill to escape, since women like Kaia are worshipped in chains. And she’s just become the prize five hundred testosterone-fueled suitors will lie, seduce, and slaughter to possess in a ritual contest for her bed.
In the scramble to slip past her samurai defenses into her cybersuit, the only guys she wants are the three she can never trust. These four have a boatload of shared secrets and a shared passion so combustible it’s practically pyrophoric—breaking every dangerous rule on a world where lovers are crucified for unconventional unions. Their illicit heat will either end the war destroying all their races…
Or get the four of them killed when a god unleashes a death warrant for their heads.
