Abducted by the Ruthless Royal #9

Taken by the Barbarian King

Rate this book
The alien barbarian comes for a princess, but abducts me instead.When aliens try to kidnap my boss, the crown princess, I get a spark of genius and pretend that I am her instead. What’s the worst that could happen? Get trapped in a spaceship with an ice barbarian king determined to make me his queen—that’s what.

I have every right to be mad at him, to hate him, yet with each passing moment in his presence, I find myself less and less able to resist him. He’s tall and blue, with a very large...endowment, and his hair has a life of its own. I can’t help but turn into putty under his touch.

As the spaceship approaches the alien planet, I discover that my abductor isn’t quite the barbarian he appears to be. He shows me the real him, and I think I love what I see. But the question is, can I tell him who I really am? And if I do, will he still want me?

This was such a sweet and cute quick read.

If you need a great palate cleanser, this is it. Low on drama and tons of either funny or sweet moments.

Our MMC, Thundar, will have you back and forth on wanting to smack him upside the head, and absolutely adoring him. Our FMC, Lottie, is not who Thundar thinks she is… but that doesn’t keep her from giving him all of her sass, opinions, and backbone.

The spice was plentiful, but nothing very kinky or intense.

Rhys Wilder and Linari Dax’s alien stories are pretty addictive. The latest, “Taken By the Barbarian,” is short and shmutty—the makings of a perfect palette cleanser or quickly something to get readers out of one of those awful slumps.

Thundar is a big blue and incredibly handsome alien clad in only a tiny covering––that attempts to cover a larger area. He takes Lottie, believing her to be his princess, and she goes along with it because why not?

At only about 91 pages, readers can expect a fast-paced, spicy, insta-lust-packed story, which I enjoyed.

Thank you, Quirky Chimera Media, for the gifted advance reader copy of “Taken by the Barbarian King” by Rhys Wilder. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Thundar sends his best friend to liberate Princess Alexandria but oops he grabbed her assistant

Lottie was trying to protect her Princess when the blue Barbarians arrived. Poor Lottie didn't correct the kidnappers because she was doing her duty. Things spiral out of control but Lottie and Thunder are drugged into a passionate isolation. When Lottie final confessed her real name things get heated. Naturally Lottie has Thunder under her spell and when she cussed him out in front of his mother all is out right.
Lots of heart, passion and oh so much hair!

The Barbarian’s name is “Thundaar” —try not to giggle, Gen X!

quick and fun!

All of it reads quickly and smuttily.
Love the off worldness, space travel and quips ans banter between the main characters.

It’s a good story, it was entertaining and the smut was nice, if you ignore that a lot of it was under the influence of an aphrodisiac she didn’t consent to consume. She raised the issue, but he didn’t seem to understand why that was wrong, and the whole thing was dismissed and never brought up again. That kinda put a stain on the story for me.
