Why Read This?The one-sentence sell. What do you get for showing up to this book, even when it's hard?

You'll get a satisfying dose of possessive, feral devotion and escape into a wild, passionate alien world.

Synopsis

An alien warrior's fated mate may unlock a rut that could just as well kill him as save him. Both broken from their past, meeting each other could be their second chance at a love worth fighting for. When Renee, a late 40's mother of two grown daughters, joins the human exchange program, H.E.T., she had no expectations for joining a study on human attraction to aliens. She was well past her biological clock telling her to breed, and she needed the distance from Earth to figure out what to do with her future. It wasn't until she boarded her shuttle, found her eldest daughter lied about her study abroad program being on Earth, and her internship was under an alien general that Renee couldn't seem to tear her eyes from. He was smart, strong, and her body betrayed her for the first time since she was a teenager, but she was keeping a secret too that she might let destroy her second chance at love. General Sou-el fought for everything he had, from his title to his very life when he was a spawnling. He had all but given up on having to fight again for a mate, as he was not a warrior of brute strength, but of the mind. He honored his goddess with research to benefit the tribe, as his glands were damaged beyond saving. At least, he thought so, until he met a human participant in his research studies that has him seeing blue, and experiencing a rut he never thought he was capable of. She was his to claim, if only there wasn't a chasm of doubt between them and a future commander who's taken an interest in finding a human mate. They will each have to fight their inner demons to win a love that could last a lifetime. Fans of Grace Goodwin, Laurann Dohner, and Ruby Dixon will love this steamy new series featuring strong, respectful, possessive, alien warrior heroes and the sassy, powerful women who save them! Dive into a fated mates, spicy monster love romance with instalust, exhibitionism, blood play, primal play, strong female empowerment, alpha male with consent, vampire-like warriors, and alien extremities. Join the fated mates of the Alien Warriors of Necias Prime in the Treasures of Trillume Universe. All stand-alone romances, within a fun interwoven plot of the universe. Others in the series Her Alien Prince, Jewel of the Alien Bandit, and Her Alien Exchange, and Her Alien Savior. This book is not intended for audiences under 18 years of age.
