a mess pt2.

Look if the fmc is going to be a whore can she be a reasonable dignified whore? Any human male that gives her attentions she’s jumping on their cock.. like girl?????

anyways this was a very nonsensical read! don’t go into this book expecting a romance because it’s not that lol but it is fun to read

I’m actually disgusted 🤮. Don’t you dare call this a romance book or “dark romance” when 🍇 is so prevalent.

Major case of Stockholm syndrome over here and not the type I enjoy reading.

I also hate that I’ll probably read book 3 lol.

I really want to know how this author's mind works

When I say she turned this book around from the first one. I did not possibly know how she was going to make sweet all the bitter that happened in the first book, but she did. I knew he was coming to Earth, and I knew it. I really want to make sure Zane gets everything he deserves and then some. I wonder why she didn't tell them the whole story about the brother cause I feel like that sucker is coming back, maybe not. I am glad they were able to make it back, that they were able to get together on earth, and did not see them having allies. I was so sorry for this book to end. Oh my goodness, I loved it. I loved it . I loved it!

AMAZING like wow 5 stars!

Okay so for starters y’all know our girl loves to give us a good cliffhanger, I know this book isn’t the last of what we’ll see of Dionus and Naya. The complexities of their situation and the underlying issues of the society he grew up in all have me in a chokehold. SPOILER‼️-I want to know more about Olithia and the result of Karyek and Zora ‘s situation. What will Naya do after Dionus’s confession? Overall I’m on the edge of my seat. I never read many dark romances before this series but I absolutely am in love with it and the world building /plot. The Author’s goal is to make you feel something and boy does she do an amazing job in this series!

The plot thickens. 3.5 star read

This was a good addition to the story. I got a little list but I think it may have been user error. I didn’t really see the
transition from enemy to over, it just seemed to switch pretty quickly imo.
I liked the world building and discovering more people cared less about the species and more about the person. Virtual voice was done with the Aussie accent but not as jarring as times past.
I can’t wait to see how this all comes together in the end. How we decide who stays where and if the fight will reach earth.
All in all, not being a sci-fi fan, I AM an Alexandria da Great fan and know she will wrap this up somehow some way. I just hope Zane finally gets his in this next one!!

Intriguing

I enjoyed this second part of the story. Dionus and Naya have some much baggage to overcome between them. Dionus seems completely changed and humbled. But he needs to apologise for his previous behaviour, and they really need to talk through what happened on Varaux if they are to work out.

I read the previous book and this second book; even though it's not a love story that I would normally finish. Both Naya and Dionus have multiple sex partners which usually ruins the story for me. However, this book was written so oddly that I wanted to know what would happen next. I can't say I enjoyed reading any of it, so what does that mean?

Failed Transition from enemies to lovers

Let me start by stating the fact that there are blue, gray , pale white alien humanoids , but somehow brown skin is where these aliens draw line is very odd. Also the transition from enemies to lovers horrible . The male lead HATED her then al of sudden cared for her ? No slow burn build to a connection..

2 ⭐️’s. I just didn’t like this one as much as book 1. The story dragged out. I had a lot of unanswered questions. The ending is unresolved and leads to book 3, which isn’t out yet.
Books 1&2 are not romances. I do not like the multiple sexual partners.

Ok...

I read book one and hoped it would get better, but not so much. I love the futuristic aspects of the storyline. Did not love that the characters/slaves had a severe case of Stockholm syndrome. Maybe a good read for some, but not for me. I won't be reading book 3.

I enjoyes the slow burn here. The relationship between the 2 main character's is a little morbid. I had gotten stockholm syndrome vibes in the first book but this kind of smooth things out. I think I would reread the series.

Great Transition

So far this series has exceeded my expectations. Really love the strong female lead. The characters are all complex and interesting aside from the lead characters and keep me reading for more. Very good!!

Is it love?

Another good installment. As always the stories never go how or where you think they are going. I have no clue what is going to happen next. I’m just along for the ride. With each story, the visuals make more sense and I like that cause they seem so random.
