Alliance Rescue #1
Adtovar
Fate has given me a second chance at life… and love.
Fatally injured while protecting my human daughter Willa, I found healing and rejuvenation thanks to a trip through the Garoot Healer. Fate has given me a second chance, and I embraced it, serving as the first mate of the Historia and dedicating myself to the mission of rescuing abducted humans across the cosmos.
But leaving behind the shadows of my past proves more difficult than expected. Traveling to the gladiator planet Budak, my meticulously crafted plans to rescue the human female held there unravel due to an unforeseen complication—my horns itch!
For an Aljani like me, itching horns mean only one thing. The human female Maddie is my true mate.
But how can I persuade this spirited, captivating female to be mine when it’s a struggle even to convince her to allow me to rescue her?
I thought I’d left my gladiator past behind, but I will fight for Maddie and our future—harder than I’ve ever fought in my life!

I liked it
I just never really got sucked into the story or the characters. There isn’t anything in particular that I had issues with, but towards the end I was skimming through to get to the end.
