Not for me



Found several grammar errors. Plot too fast and events too quick. Descriptors of "ghost warrior" are not appealing. Didn't want to finish this book and it's only 61pages.

Virginia Downey was one of the first volunteers for the new breeding program that was starting off-world, now that the aliens had made their presence known. She didn’t even care if there was love or not; she just wanted stability in her life. But as she returned to her quarters, the ship gave a violent shudder. They were under attack! The women were removed to another ship to be sold to a third party – all except Virginia! The dreaded Ghost Warrior had decided to keep her for himself! She wasn’t aware that the woman organizing the program had hand-picked her as mate for her brother, and had promised she could keep all the women safe. The pirate laughed that he would take this one for himself, and would leave the breeding program organizer to justify what just happened.

In his room, she tried to attack him with a scalpel she found on a shelf. He sent her to the brig for a few days to learn restraint. When she was taken out of her cell by a woman guard, she found herself in a training room filled with fighting dragons. The Ghost Warrior, Vai, flew down to her and started instructing her on how to fight.

Later, she came to his door and told him how angry she was that he was selling the women. He didn’t see how it was different than their original plans to find a mate. The end result would be the same? But it wouldn’t, she told him. It was not their choice. So he immediately changed course to drop them off and let them return to their chosen mates. She was shocked at his compliance! He felt bad that she still feared him and did not trust him. Yet things were changing for her. She was seeing a different side of him. Was being his mate something she may want after all? Or did she still need to get away from her captor? How did she feel about him now? How did he feel about her – was it still just revenge that he needed?

This was a really good book that I thoroughly enjoyed reading. It certainly exceeded my expectations! I definitely recommend it.

Good, short read. I liked Vai and his story, he was the bread and butter of the story for me.

Just an FYI this book ends at around 9%. It was a decent read but the next story in this book left me wanting so I couldn't finish it. This is a VERY quick read about 50 pages or so to guess. Kind of good but didn't have a lot of details because it was such a quick read. Good lunch break read.

Virginia had signed up to join an alien breeding program. She had been specifically match with the brother of Pirraeq the scientist in charge of the breeding program. On her way to meet her future mate, her ship is overtaken by rogue pirates led by Vai the Ghost Warrior. Vai claims Virginia as his and plans to sell the rest of the human women. Vai wants revenge on Pirraeq who killed two of his siblings in her experiments. Virginia is frightened but tries to make the best of her situation. Vai at first saw Virginia as a tool in his revenge plot but as he gets to know her, he begins to have more feelings for her.
Will Vai do his best to help Virginia and the human woman or will he be blinded in his need for revenge? Will Pirraeq's eveil experiments be stopped? This is a short read but the book has lots of bonus materials. I voluntarily read a copy of this book and this is my honest review.

Alien dragons got it goin' on.

Being kidnapped by an alien would definitely qualify as a bad day. When said alien decides you're his, well that just takes scary oppression to a whole new level. Thankfully for Virginia, her kidnapping dragon mercenary Vai has a decent side that includes honor. Doesn't hurt that he has a hard body and wants to show her just what he can do with it. Being stuck in the middle of a politically charged alien society with deadly consequences for breaking the rules is a threat to Virginia's survival. Luckily, she has a gorgeous, badass dragon that plans to protect her at all costs.

This is a very short story, but it was awesome. Could not put down. Virginia is going to another planet to mate with an alien, so she can get away from her life on earth. Via is trying to bring Down Piraeq for killing his siblings. He takes Vai and the action does not stop. It keeps going you just don't know what will happen next. Great read!

A Kidnaping to A Rescue

Really fun and sweet story. The plot was unique and engaging. The Ghost Warrior was much more than a pirate and Virginia learns that in the best way possible.

Taken by the Alien Dragon by Abella Ward is an Alien Romance

Virginia is on a spaceship heading for Bronæl, the home planet of the Stlozyn. Virginia is among the first group of women volunteers for the 'breeding program' with the incredibly attractive Stlozyn, a dragon shifter alien race. The spaceship comes under attack and a dragon takes Virginia onto another ship with the rest of the Earth women. Vai, the Ghost Warrior, informs the women that they are to be sold to a third-party breeding matchmaker. Except for the stunning Virgina, who he's going to keep as his mate. Vai blames Pirræq for the deaths of his brother and sister and feels victorious at stealing the woman handpicked by Pirræq to be her brother Hud's mate. Virginia is just a means to an end for Vai ... nothing more. So why does Vai's heart stop when he finds out that Virginia's been kidnapped by Pirræq? Will Vai be able to save Virginia?

Taken by the Alien Dragon is an exciting story that's action packed, suspenseful and steamy. Abella Ward has created a fascinating alien world with fun characters. I highly recommend this book.

ARC - I voluntarily offered to review this book with no obligations and my opinions are honest!
Great Read!
Virginia is the first to sign up to the breeding program!
She wanted a family + some stability.
Instead, she was kidnapped by Vai.
He was going to take her as his mate.
Of course, Virginia fought all the way.
However, once they started to get to know each other, their feelings changed.
You have action, sexy scenes, danger + much more.
I recommend this book!

This is actually a good story, I thought it was going to be a 'fluff read' but it has a really good plot and the couple are interesting and although they feel an attraction it takes time and getting to know each other to get together.

Short but sweet

Vai and Virginia may have met in some shifty circumstances but both are very strong willed and know what they deserve.

There was no progression in relationship development. The heroine went from cold to hot in 60 seconds flat - from hating to liking and wanting to jump the Hero. DNF at that point.

This review is from: Taken by the Alien Dragon (Kindle Edition)
This is a lovely story of putting it all on the line just to improve your situation somewhat and a kink in the plan that seems bad turns into something wonderful, something you thought you'd never have. This book is a sweet romance that is fairly quick reading. I recommend for adults. I reviewed this book after receiving an advanced readers copy.
