Galactic Mates #5
Dusan
Dusan must choose: His squad or his mate.
Cindy Knox needs a break. The shapely blonde saved the galaxy with Michelle and Novak’s help, and now the intergalactic paparazzi won’t leave her alone. She never asked for this fame, and does her best to flee from the spotlight. While looking for some peace of mind her ship’s engine dies, and she finds herself stranded in space, millions of miles from home. Cindy’s oxygen supply is running low, and time is running out.
There is only one ship that can help her, but it belongs to the Zoran Special Forces. These battle-hardened warriors are on a top-secret mission, and rescuing a dame in distress is not part of their plan…
Dusan is piloting the Zoran ship when he receives Cindy’s distress call. The seven-foot tall warrior can’t ignore the blonde’s pleas for help — even though it means violating a direct order. The moment he lays his eyes on her, the warrior feels the primal urge to protect her.
The elite soldier endangers his mission and his entire career by picking up the stranded human — according to his superiors.
Will the alien warrior choose love over duty?

TO SAVE THE HUMAN OR ENDANGER THE MISSION? IS THAT THE QUESTION?
TITLE OF BOOK: DUSAN
AUTHOR OF BOOK: LUNA HUNTER
DATE READ: FEBRUARY 17, 2017 – FEBRUARY 17, 2017
Luna Hunter is an awesome Sci-Fi Alien romance novelist. I started her works with “The Alien General’s baby.” I have been reading her work ever since. Luna Hunter is a Goddess when it comes to writing about her aliens. You can’t help but get absorbed in the book and not putting it down until you have completed the whole book. “Dusan” is no different. The storyline and the character’s blend into the perfect story. One that captures you heart, body, and soul!!!! You have sexy Zoran Warriors, damsel in distress, talking spaceships, cute little alien critters, and treachery. What more could you ask for in a book? Oh, yea I forgot…. lots of mouthwatering, panty melting, FAVBULOUS Alien sex!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don’t miss your chance to take a trip into outer space with a Zoran Warrior!!!!
Cindy Knox was the personal assistant to Michelle the human Federation’s Ambassador to the Intergalatic Alliance. She had gained so much press after she had helped Michelle and Novak take out the Falurian Ambassador, Jakob who was a traitor to the Alliance. Cindy had taking so much from the constant bombard of new reporters that she took an extended vacation that she hoped was incognito. When her cover is blown, her spaceship’s AI NORA takes her, at her request where no one would know her. But before they can reach a destination the ship is somehow damaged and sends out a distress signal since she was losing O2 supply. Now she is beginning to wish she hadn’t asked the spaceship to take her that far. Cindy wasn’t sure she would be rescued, but she wasn’t prepared to be rescued a Zoran Warrior with an attitude almost as bad as the one his ship’s AI system had.
Dusan is a Zoran Warrior in the Zoran Special Forces, and he is on the spaceship the Thunderbolt with his Squad Leader Zlatan, and two his buddies. Dusan is the only one awake monitoring the ship while the other three are in hyper sleep. His biggest problem is the ships AI DEVO. It seems to have a mind of its own. Dusan receives the destress call from Cindy’s ship and goes against Zlatan’s orders and rescues Cindy. Once he lays eyes on her he knows then it up to him to protect her. Especially since DEVO has gone bezerk and crashed them into an uncharted planet!!! Can Dusan save himself and Cindy from the spaceship’s bezerk AI DEVO? Can he get them off the planet alive? What will they face on the unknown planet?

HEA with unanswered questions
Dusan is a Zoran Warrior that performs blacks ops. He’s currently bored on his spaceship on the way with his crew mates that are in stasis. Cindy which we know was Michelle’s assistant from prior books is alone as well but just trying to have some peace and quiet. Well Dusan is hoping for something exciting and Cindy is just the answer for that. When a turn of events causes everything to go sideways and they are stranded on an unknown planet there are powers stronger than them wanting to destroy everything they know. At the end there are some questions left unanswered that I’m hoping come up in the next books, but overall it was an easy and entertaining read. There was definitely more character building in this one than the others though so it made the relationship build a little more naturally rather than “instant lust/love.”

Delivers more than I expected
Dusan is part of a secret special forces team of Zoran warriors, and honestly I was unsure what kind of mission we might find them on, or what kind of intergalactic intrigue might play out, but found myself really enjoying all aspects of this story.
Each story in this series has continued to expand the universe and build on the previous world building to create a full a rich environment populated with fun and interesting characters.
Cindy just wanted to get away, after assisting Michelle in the previous story she felt she had earned a vacation, and who could blame her. It was fun seeing the rocky start to her vacation, and her rash reaction to it... One most of us can relate to.

Very interesting storyline.
Cindy always seemed like a timid thing in the previous story, but when she meets Dusan she comes into her own. I love Dusan and the fact that his team is all in cryo-sleep. It makes the story all their own. The evil AI is so believable, that it adds the element of danger and suspense. The little monkey beings are amazing and helpful and now I can't wait to hear more about them. (There are still numerous things to edit in this book though, but it doesn't take away from the story).

Loved it!
This was an exciting, sexy, intriguing, didn't want to stop reading story! I can't wait to find out what happens next. Love this series and you will too. My only complaint would be in the formatting of the first chapter e.g., the font changed from page to page which caused lots of missing text.

Dusan
I had hoped Cindy would have been pleasantly surprised by a Zoran. This character's learned backbone from her boss and I is adorable! Dusan is an honourable decent Zoran and rescues Cindy. It gets lots of action and romance.

Why Amazon insist on 20 words for a review via kindle, I don't know. Especially when I just want to say that I really enjoyed this book.

This book was the stuff of nightmares! Rouge AI has always scared me more than the boogeyman. I still loved the book though.

Loved this book i loved how Luna incorporated Devo the murderous ship computer and Cindy who is Michelles assistant from the last book in the series. To be honest Cindy came across as quite mousy in the last book but this one she come into her own. Shes resigned her post due to all the publicity and travelling but shes so easily recognised shes had enough and just wants solitude from her fame and this gets her in trouble and places her in danger but introduces her to Dusan. Dusan is a special forces soldier unrecognised by all, his missions are top secret and anominous. Hes basically babysitting his ships computer sistem that has a nasty personality while his ship mates sleep through the trip. He basically jeopardises his mission to help cindy and from there by heck is it a great read. Devo has something happen and crashes the ship. The question is will cindy, dusan and his team get off the planet they land on, is everything as it seems and should they try and escape or will it cause a great evil to escape?

Cindy is having a little holiday after helping to save her boss Michelle and her mate Novak a Zoran warrior from the nutty Falurians ambassador. She has been hounded by the press and has an extended leave from everything until she decides what to do. Her boss Michelle and Riley have given her a cruiser with an awesome AI named Nora which practically flies itself. She decides to head for a place out of Federation space and ends up in uncharted space with her ship damaged and nearly out of life support sending off distress signals. Cindy is about to get more help than she bargained on. The crew of the Thunderbolt an advanced ship so secretive nobody is allowed to know where they are. Dusan and his squad leader Zlatan plus three other Zorans are members of the Zoran Special Forces a unit that sends them to top secret missions. This one is to test out the new space ship but the crew do not know where they are headed and Dusan has just received a distress and decides to rescue Cindy, which he is technically not allowed to do. It appears Cindy will go from one problem to another because the Thunderbolt's AI is not at all what it seems and Dusan is going to have more than the ship to worry about as Cindy is his mate. Thank you to Luna Hunter for the enjoyable review copy. Loved it.

Cindy can't seen to get away from people wanting a story on her boss Michelle and her Zoran warrior/mate. So she takes off on a ship called the needle with an AI named Nora but even 5 trillion miles from earth they are still bugging her.
Dusan a ZSF = Zoran special forces officer is flying thought space on the ZMA Thunderbolt with his brothers in arms in synthetic sleep for the trip.
Hearing the SOS from Cindy of the Needle that her ship is not working and she us running out of air he decides to save her.
After that well and besides Cindy and Dusan getting together all things go to hell for the ZSF team and mission. I am not giving anything away your just going to have to read it! Lol Great story, loved the characters and action. It had some fun twists and I can't wait for the next book. SYFY-TASTIC
Voluntary reviewed a copy and I honestly loved it.

Lost in space
Cindy gets stuck in space on a malfunctioning spacecraft. Dusan rescues her and takes her with him on his mission. What neither of them know is that the AI running the ship is about to take over and wants them dead.

Sometimes the public just annoys you with questions you're sincerely tired of answering. It's time to take a break. Yet, this break didn't include breaking down in the middle of nowhere in space.
He saves the little human. But, something sinister is going on yet before it's too late he must save them all or he'll go out fighting. What he hadn't planned on was a puny human getting lost in the black too far away from help. There are just things in the universe you want to minimize exposing yourself too, even if they come knocking.
Fabulous read. Entertaining, Alarming, Turmoil and Hot Romance. Can't wait to see what she comes out with next in the series. I voluntarily received a complimentary copy for an honest review.

Dusan is a Zoran Warrior of the special operative, you know the kind if he tells you what he does he's going to have to kill you.
As they were heading for there mission thinks started to happen, then disaster.

Cindy is trying to escape the notoriety from her time with Michelle and Novak, while they were saving the world from being dominated by evil aliens, by taking a month long vacation far away from earth. But she could not seem to get far enough, so she orders the AI in the spaceship to take her to a location where no one will recognize her...which lands her in big trouble...
Dusan is a big light red/orange Zoran Special Forces warrior on an unknown top secret black ops mission...no problem... until he rescues Cindy!
Everything seems to escalate from there.
Dusan can be read on it's own, but is better if you have read Novak first!

Very good read after a slowish start.
I have read this entire series. Luna just gets better with every book. Plot lines that you care about. A relationship built on equals. Strife, danger, a new planet, mystery all come together for an excellent read.

Pretty good
I enjoyed reading this story. It was a quick read. Mainly because it kept my attention. It had a lot of romantic scenes and some great adventure added in to. There is also a malfunctioning AI who is out to kill them.
After the AI crashes the ship on a planet, the blame is placed on Susan to choose his teammates or the woman he rescued earlier in the story.
The story was pretty good and it ends with an ominous note. I wonder what will happen in the next story. You can't end it the way it did without another story to follow it up.

I love this series since the first book I read about the Zoran Warriors. It's a series that's out this world with plenty of action, pleasure, steamy love scenes, and awesome characters? A must buy and keep them coming.

This was a good book, and so far actually me favorite in the series because it was much lighter and easier to read because there wasn't so much heavy fighting and drama. Cindy and Dusan were both great characters, and I loved them as a couple. I enjoyed following their story. I was gifted a copy.

At 34% I felt like I was going to go to sleep. Cindy & Dusan were the most boring characters ever. The story was super HOKEY and the best part was when it was over. The write just gave up when it came to this one I think. I will try and hang in for 1 more but........ Not really feeling it.

Luna Hunter's books just seem to get better with each new book. Aliens and human mates just can't wait to get the next one. You're missing out on a wonderful read and once you get into them then you just can't put them down.
