Necia Alien Warriors #1

Her Alien Savior

Rate this book
My alien warrior thinks he's supposed to save me, but we may just save each other.

What happens if your exchange program with another alien planet gets hijacked by a warrior that says your contracted host is a criminal? And you're required to help him infiltrate, and apprehend them, or else? Well, I guess that's what happened to me, but it was difficult to know who to trust when being a human meant I was treated like a second-class alien, and injected with nanobug trackers like a criminal.

All of that would be pretty difficult to handle if I was doing it on my own, but I wasn't the only one to get roped into this mission, and the warrior assigned to protect me during my mission was not only hot, but used to be commander of this ship before he was forcefully removed by the current warrior in charge. My only choice was to figure out a way of surviving this mission, and keeping my heart safe from catching the feels for an alien that didn't have the same kind of feelings towards intimacy as humans. Could I keep my feelings to myself when he starts calling me his mate, and runs off into danger without me?

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, strong female empowerment, alpha male with consent, 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 Her Alien Prince, Jewel of the Alien Bandit, and Her Alien Exchange.

Should I read in order?
I would say yes. Her Alien Warrior series and Treasures of Trillume series are rather intertwined. I’d love for her to come out with the perfect reading order at some point. The romance itself can be read as a stand alone but there’s a lot of world building and character mentions of other stories. Ideally, I would read Her Alien Exchange, Jewel of the Alien Bandit and Her Alien Prince to get the best understanding of the politics, cultures and world building.

Basic plot:
Riley joins the Human Exchange Trade because there is nothing left for her on Earth – when her vessel is hijacked, she finds herself relying on warrior Direl.

Give this a try if you want:
- science fiction romance
- alien/space setting
- human heroine/alien hero pairing
- higher technology (DNA samples taken quickly, chips inserted for language)
- light love triangle
- light fated mates feel
- medium steam – 4 scenes with knotting, some primal play, blood play, but most is together at the end

First line:
Staring at the numbers highlighted on the screen above my head, I took in a breath and sat down.

My thoughts:
This is another truly immersive scifi romance by Robert! I am finding these complex and deep with a decent amount of character depth and lush world building.

I love the idea of the Human Exchange Trade and mates being found that way so I was really excited for this novel. Direl is such a sweetie – so gentle, protective and takes time when Riley needs it. Riley is smart and strong and is an amazing addition to the fight for what is right among these alien races. The beginning of the book had so much that I loved and I really enjoyed getting to know both our mains in the first quarter.

There were a few things here I don’t think I was in the mood for at this time – I felt a bit overwhelmed with all the world politics and wanted more focus on just Riley and Direl (definitely just a personal preference). I know we also had alternating chapters between the two mains, but I felt like we didn’t get as much from Direl and I always want more hero.

I have a couple other things to mention but I’ll mark it as spoilers…

Riley had nothing to loose by signing up for the Alien Exchange program. She had no family to keep her back so she thought she could help out other species. Unfortunately her shuttle was hijacked and her whole life changed from that point on. Direl, the Necias Prime warrior who was told Riley was contracted by a war criminal, wants her to help him infiltrate, and apprehend her contractor but alas things don't go the way he planned either. These 2 have many challenges thrown their way along with coming to terms with being fated mates.
This was a nice installment to the series. I did get lost alittle bit with some of the political story line and wished there was more fated mate (and conflict) story to get lost in. This is the third book I have had the joy of being an ARC reader for and look forward to more.

Riley (h), a human woman who becomes involved in an exchange program with an alien planet, finds herself in an unexpected situation with a warrior, Direl (H), who believes her contracted host is a criminal. Riley and Direl are forced to work together to infiltrate and apprehend the supposed criminal, leading them on a dangerous and thrilling adventure. Alpha Direl becomes drawn to Riley, his fated mate, and despite his by-the-book, controlled demeanor, he can't help but lose his cool for her, especially when his rut is triggered upon meeting her. Riley, on the other hand, is tough, accepting, and caring, surprising Direl with her fearlessness and ability to stand up to him. As they get to know one another, their relationship deepens with passionate claiming scenes and intense moments, including primal play, exhibitionism, knotting, blood bond, and more. Lots of action, adventure, and intrigue in this hot and steamy alien-human romance.

Sky Robert has the signature of giving you some twists and turns; just when you think you had the story figure out, she throws them at you. It's like a rollercoaster ride for your brain! And let me tell you, the surprises are absolutely delicious and exhilarating!

Now, we've got excitement, romance, and some "passionate" claiming scenes 😉 ! Oh, la la! This book has it all. It's giving me a spicy cocktail of emotions and action.

It gets even better! The characters in this story have strong personalities. Direl, the hunky male lead, is patient like a saint, even during his rut. He's willing to wait until Riley is ready to be claimed or do the claiming herself! Talk about a modern alien guy! 😄

And when things finally get heated between Riley and Direl, sparks fly like fireworks on the 4th of July. They go at it like there's no tomorrow - no holding back, no awkwardness, just pure f🍒*ng and claiming. 👏

Of course, the story ends with a satisfying happily ever after, but guess what? There's a little twist in the last chapter that teases a big new adventure on the horizon. 😉

I want to give this more stars, really.

There’s plenty of really thoughtful intergalactic drama here, especially in terms of what we should really be considering if we’re serious about hoping aliens come here—and with what motivation for a planet full of so many ignorant people who can barely get ourselves to the moon or Mars, let alone across a galaxy. Are we really ready, considering how our own world is run by greedy arseholes, crooked politicians, the oligarchs who own them, and the uneducated boobies who fight on their sides and against their own interests? (I’m looking at you, MAGATs and Repukes…)

Yeah, and they appear to simply scratch the surface of the duplicity here, with obvious sequels in mind. I usually complain when a book is truncated with further sales the obvious goal, but can’t make that complaint here as this story is complicated and a long read. There’s obviously a LOT of the story left to tell but Riley’s tale was hardly left unfinished, and this can stand alone despite the teaser of more to come.

What I DO have to complain about, however, is the poor editing job (hence only 3 stars). There are superfluous commas everywhere, wrong homonyms used, words and letters missing, run-on sentences, sentence fragments, and places where these messes yanked me out of the story one page after another (if not two to a page). It definitely detracted from my enjoyment.

Will I read this author again? Yup. I just hope there’s more polish before they’re released…

This book is very detailed and at times confusing. You are given a lot of details on the different species, customs, languages, rulings etc. Some of this was really hard to understand and maybe a little to much information. yet the more you read the book the more it all falls into place. there are several characters you need to keep track of but not so many it overwhelms the story. The bathing customs are very interesting and there are some similarities to vampires as well. Riley being caught up in a plan that was put in place to use her in many different ways was always twisting and turning. I thought there were some unanswered questions still out there too. Direl also was being manipulated most of the book. Their story seems to be complete yet THE story is not and with the facts going in so many directions and others not knowing just guessing what is or has happened this story goes on. A very good Sci-fi book. Romance is kinda a part of it but if you NBC are a Sci-fi fan you will love this book. If you just want a romance book to read you might wanna pass.

"she was yelling now, and a different kind of warmth filled me. Did this human care about my wellbeing? The way she glared at me with concern made my primal instincts to be claimed by her roar to life."

~Direl

**********************************************
For readers that want to read alien smut with plot, this book is a must read.

The story was filled with lots of elements and mystery that unpacked slowly yet felt fast. The plot was well driven and the story had me absolutely smitten but at some times i got lost and confused.

Both the main characters were a bit flawed and had their share of problems but they banded together and fought for each other.

I loved how the FMC was a weapon dancer and able to overpower the MMC. Go girl!!!

I enjoyed reading the book.

This is a great read and it had it all drama, action, betrayal, politics, kidnapping criminal activity are just a few things that will have the reader enjoying every page they turn. Riley is a human that is part of the Human Exchange Trade Program when the shuttle she is on gets hijacked by Necia warriors and she is told that Klemon is a criminal and she will help Commander Direl infiltrate and help him apprehend them all but things go wrong and they end up in a cell. Commander Direl is after Klemon the criminal and his men so he has hijacked the shuttle with the human on board to use her to get close to him and so she is injected with nano bug trackers but he is drugged and betrayed by the King Sylve and now wakes up in a cell with Riley but his attraction to her is setting off the symptoms of the rut his kind have with there mates. How does it all turn out in the end and do they get their HEA or not.

This story that is about Riley a human and Commander Direl a Necia warrior was a very enjoyable alien romance to read. Riley signed up to the Human Exchange Trade hoping to be adopted by an alien family. Riley gets chosen by Klemon to go to Trillume only on her way there her shuttle gets boarded by Necia warriors. Riley finds out she's been adopted to a Trill that's a criminal. Direl was betrayed and drugged unconscious by King Sylve. Direl awakens with restrain cuffs on him and in a cell with Riley. He finds himself drawn toward her and experiencing the systems of the rut. What occurs afterwards is an engaging, action-packed, romantic story I enjoyed and devoured. Loved our couple and their chemistry in this copy I'd received and volunteer to read and review.

Sky Robert has once again written a delightful book. The world building, just like all of her other books is spectacular. I found nothing lacking when it came to the characters and their depth. Loved Riley’s strong but cheeky feminine vibes and Direl was also quite endearing. His big, strong and protective persona scratched that itch for me. The sex was hot and so well written like the rest of the book, but I find I really enjoy the storyline in every Sky Robert book that I read and to me that’s just as important as the smut. If you love a well written smutty alien fantasy romance then this one is for you!.

Riley has trained up as best as she can (learning alien languages, etc), for she wants to be chosen for the exchange program (where she will go to an alien planet). When Direl meet Riley, he feels a huge attraction to her, but Riley is hesitant to help him (for he could be an alien criminal for all she knows). I loved how their story just pulls you in, their banter/interactions, attraction and the intriguing world(s) that make this story come to life. I loved both Riley, who might be small but packs a punch, and Direl who knows he wants Riley and will protect her but needs to convince her.

Riley's Adventure . . .

Riley has decided she wants to be part of the alien exchange program where she will go to another planet. She has gone through training in preparation. But she finds that the ship that would transport her has been hijacked by an alien who has hijacked it from the true owner. When the real owner, Necia Commander Direl, meets Riley, he feels a strong attraction to her. It turns out that they are fated mates. Will they go along to figure a way to get Direl’s ship back? Will he keep her safe? Can they figure out what is going on? And will he explain to her that she is his mate?

Sky Robert’s Her Alien Savior is an amazing romantic adventure in space. Riley is infertile and agrees to sign up to travel into space to study how various alien races reproduce. She unknowingly is recruited by the banished Necia princess but is found out by the banished prince who wants revenge on the Trill who took over his planet. Mercian warrior Direl was supposed to pilot the ship Riley is on but is tricked by a disloyal warrior who has allowed the Prince to take over the ship. Upon meeting human Riley, his rut is triggered! The world building and character development is astounding! Read for yourself to find out how it all ends!

Fighting for her mate

Riley the one-year recruit to an alien research project isn't prepared for the double-dealing, double crossing, spy vs. spy interstellar mess she's plunged into when she wakes from stasis. Meeting a magnetically handsome, spiky, outcast Necian warrior/pirate only complicated things, especially when their mutual attraction wars with their mutual distrust. In this insanely steamy and uber-angsty love story, nothing is what it seems, least of all her honor-obsessed alien, and only the love of the true mate bond sorts it all out. Whew!! It's a crazy-good read.

Very Exciting Book

What an adventure this was! Political intrigue, spaceship mutiny, scheming crew mates and one totally oblivious human female kept me enthralled from the beginning. I really liked Riley but thought she was a little naive when others explained what was really going on. Direl held it together way better than I thought he would, especially when his crew mate tried and darn near succeeded in claiming Riley for herself. Whew was that scene tense! I can’t wait to read more in this series.

4.5 Strong Human Female Meets Her Perfect Match

I really enjoyed the story of Riley & Direl. Both are strong warriors & the perfect match. There is a fun surprise toward the end of the book that made me happy. I don’t particularly like FF or FFM scenes, so that part wasn’t as enjoyable for me to read, but others may like it. I enjoyed the rest of the book, though. If you like fated mates & alien romances with exhibitionism, this book is for you.

This is an exciting continuation of the series. It can be read as a stand alone but definitely best enjoyed if you've read the other books. There are a lot of characters to learn about. Plenty of political intrigue and plotting. There is undeniable chemistry between the main characters. And don't forget the steamy hot rituals that the Necia perform!.

I will start by saying that this story is definitely for mature readers only. It also should contain some trigger warnings. There is a scene that is manage and I really didn't like that the characters mostly the females use substances get what they want. There is what I considered cheating but at least you get a HEA. The Hero was a sweet and caring the heroine I didn't care to much for her. There are some hole plots but it maybe that they are answered in the next book of the series. You will get an excerpt of the story here.

The intense storyline and world building continues!! Will the nanobot infertility be solved without war?

“Every part of you is both lightning and rain, igniting and soothing my soul with every touch, sound, and scent.”

Riley is a human who is part of a year-long alien exchange program with Princess Klemon , whose research it turns out, has been the cause of international infertility. Direl is a necia Commander who was duped by his second in command (Chuel) and his ex King Sylve. Sylve is angry that Direl went along with the Trill’s plans and wants to use and discard Direl once he successfully finds the Princess. Direl knows instantly that Riley is his mate but they are thrown together to defeat the Trill who defeated the Necia previously. King Sylve wants to push Princess Klemon to take her mother, the Queen out of power and become head of the Galactic Trill Authority.

Riley is more than she seems, having trained in secret to be a warrior in her own right. She is strong for a human yet weakened; not only by limited information about the aliens and their culture, but also due to being injected with nanobots that may be lethal. She is also being semi controlled after the exchange of Necia blood with a female warrior who also wants Riley for her own. Direl maybe a noble, strong commander and warrior but is a cinnamon roll hero for Riley. There is lots of action, twists, and uncertainties that take you on a wild journey. Often circumstances were beyond their control (which rings so true in life) yet they love and support each other even while their cultures are very distinct from each other. A fantastic read!!.

Riley, a human female joined an alien exchange program to ease her guilt. She wasn’t looking for love and neither was Direl, but love found them. Their cultures were different so misunderstandings caused issues of trust, disappointment and regret. They have a lot to work though and danger to face. This story contains in the next book.

This book packed a punch, with intrigue, and political backstabbing the storyline. I admit I found it quite easy to get lost as to what was going on, the story big on descriptive flair. Story was well written, but I found a huge typo where a whole paragraph had found its way into the story again, on the next page.

I am loving this world that she created. The characters manage to keep my interest and surprise me. I enjoy when I can't predict what will happen. I am looking forward to reading the rest of these stories. I've only read four of them so far. If you enjoy not being able to put the story down, being surprised at what the characters do, and a well made world, these are the stories for you.
