We first meet Paloma (really meet as we have had bits and pieces of her throughout the series), Tommy, Clay, Keith and Quinn in Meeting Them. If you haven't read it yet then stop reading this and go buy it now! Ok, really you can read this book without reading that one but why would you do that? This is the 5th book in the Wings of Artemis series and even though you should read them all, this is the first full book of Paloma's story. It will continue in Saving Them (interesting title there Rebecca, wonder what's going to happen) which has a tentative release date of October 2017. What?!?! So exciting, I know! Now you don't have to bombard her with the WHEN'S THE NEXT BOOK?? You're welcome.
Loving them picks up where Meeting Them left off. Paloma and the guys are on the ship on their way to Mars Station. The guys don't have a full plan yet to stop their father but they know they need the help of Melissa Alexander and her husbands. Surely with Paloma at their side they have a chance at convincing Melissa to trust them. Paloma hasn't been back on Mars Station since she was sent to the sisterhood by her parents. Will Melissa and her family welcome her back with open arms? Especially when she shows up engaged to the enemy!
Paloma and the guys are still new to their whole relationship. Yes they are engaged to be married, yes they love each other. They have really only known each other for a few days though. Paloma is still dealing with the trauma of her past and her men have to learn how to handle that. She has to learn how to handle four stubborn men as well. First things first though, they need to get married. That turns out to be an obstacle all in itself when Mars Station is under attack.
I really enjoyed this book. I've enjoyed the whole series and I love how even though we are focused on a new group, we still get to see and interact with the past groups. The timeline in this book is while Diana is still missing. The Sandler Cartel is surrounding Mars Station, ready to attack and take control. We spend time with some beloved characters from the past and some not so loved characters. There are several reunions in this book. Some you expected and some you never saw coming.
There is so much that happens in this book that I want to tell you about. I keep typing and deleting things in this review b/c I want to tell you all of it but I don't want to spoil anything! So hard!! I want to tell you that Paloma ends up in places she never thought she'd be. That we finally get to experience certain events that we missed in another book. What happens when Paloma comes face to face with her family for the first time in years. I want to tell you about Tommy and how he.... I think I'll just stop where I am and leave you with some of my favorite snippits from the book. Just a little something to suck you in, tease you a little before the release. Oh and I can't forget my sexy time info. Yes, oh my yes we have the sexy time. Nothing too wild but no fade to black either. Just the right amount.
Just a little side note too. There will be a Wings of Artemis novella coming out in the antho called 'Married. Wait! What?' The novella is titled 'A Ship Called Malice' and the antho will be released October 5th. Get excited!!! **This is NOT the RH antho! This antho will only have three RH stories**

Finding their way with Love
We got to meet Paloma Delacroix and her four fiancés, Thomas, Clay, Keith and Quinn McQueen (Sandler) in Meeting Them, book 3.5. This story takes place about the same time and Diana’s story does. Now this story may be a self-contained, but it is so much better if you read all the stories in the series of Wings of Artemis in the order they are written.
In this story, you have five people coming to terms of being together and all the trials it come with. On top of the war going on around them. In this futuristic world, woman are scarce, so one woman and several husbands is not unusual.
This story brings them to Mars station and reacquaints them with past friends and for some past enemies. But all must pull together to help defeat the Sandler cartel, who happens to be Paloma’s soon to be father-in-law. But that’s not the only parent that plays a role in this story.
Well written and extremely entertaining to read. I highly recommend this series.

In the fifth book of the Wings of Artemis Paloma and her guys are on their way to Mars Station, hoping to arrive in time to save everyone from their father's attack and to come up with the plan to stop him from taking over the Universe. So, nothing major.
Just a walk in the park.
I first read about Paloma in the collection of the reverse harem stories Falling for them and I wanted to learn more about her ever since. I liked the person Paloma became in this book and the way her relationship with the guys progress. I also enjoyed getting a chance to see the Alexander family again. I kind of skipped the books about Diana, but now that I actually met her character, I want to go back and read her story as well, it promises to be an interesting one.
I've been a fan of this series for some time now, so I'm sad to say I did not enjoy this book as much as I hoped to. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't bad. I love the character (both old and new ones) and I liked seeing how Earth progressed (it's so cool that they actually live under the Ocean), but the story itself did not grip my interest that much, and I caught myself zoning out a few times while reading.
Still, I'm not gonna stop reading these books, I liked the previous ones too much to just give up now.

Loving Them
Rebecca Royce
Romance in space can't get any better than this. I love this series by Rebecca Royce. Space romance, husband's and one woman at the center of their universe. Can they keep her happy and safe? Word of advice don't read out of order. You most definitely be lost in the time line reading out of order.
Paloma can't wait to get hitched to her four husbands to be. All of them coming to an agreement about their lives. Everything is laid bare. They know whats going on in each others life. Their jobs and what they used to do in their fathers army. But she needs to figure out how to control their anger issues and fast. She knows the past of their life and what happened, but can she keep them safe and happy. With all thats going on like their father trying to steal them back, or trying to kill them, and the fact that her father wants to talk to her or rather her husband's into a deal....

'Loving Them' is another great read in the continuing saga of the Wings of Artemis Series. This book is actually in between Diana's two stories. All her female leads have a two story ebook arc in this series. In this case Paloma actually has 2.5 stories. This is a continuation from her novella 'Meeting Them.' with Paloma's second full length book to follow next in 'Saving Them.'
As usual this is set in a future where woman are scarce so they typically have several husbands. In this case all Paloma's husbands are brothers; Tommy, Clay, Quinn and Keith. What I like about the way Rebecca tells these stories is if they are not brothers as in this case, then the men are not usually strangers either but are very close and are good friends (though there is nothing sexual in any way between the men at all). I like that feature much more than I would if she just had the heroine randomly marry several different men that had to share her.
These types of marriages are not usually my thing in romances but Rebecca really makes it work in this series. I particularly loved them all being brothers in this one. Though the author tries to write them as standalone books, I really think you need to read the whole series to understand them totally, if for no other reason than the continuing story arch throughout.
The author surprised me again in this story because the one-on-one sex scenes between Paloma and her husbands, while nice are rather sedate, but then she takes a leap into ménages and even a little voyeurism with one of the other husbands watching. I gotta say that those particular scenes were very hot and steamy and obviously where the author excels in her version of erotica. There is nothing offensive or crude though, so these scenes shouldn't offend anyone.
Paloma and her men are great together and the story moves along at a fast pace. As usual in this series, their story is only half finished and more is to come in the next book 'Saving Them.'
I really hope that Ari gets his own story soon and that we find out what is going on with Paloma's sister Amber and her husbands. The author hints at more to come with those particular snippets and I hope she follows through and doesn't just keep teasing us.
So if you have been following this series don't hesitate to pick up this book. If you haven't then at least try to start with Diana's books 'Crashing into Destiny' and 'Reclaiming Their Love.' It's a fun ride in a sci-fi world with a little twist on a conventional love story.

Loving Them continues the Wings of Artemis series focusing on Paloma and the Sandler Boys. I can honestly say that Rebecca Royce has created the most entertaining Reverse Harem in the sci-fi universe. This book is no exception. The book begins with Paloma, Thomas, Clay, Keith and Quinn McQueen on their way to Mars Station to hopefully join forces with Melissa and her men to rid the universe of the evil that is Garrison Sandler.
This book has it all. There is a war going on between the Sandler Cartel and the rest of the universe. There is danger, subterfuge, plotting, and diplomacy. This is personal for the boys who each feel the need to atone for the acts they committed under their father's control. Their brilliance and bravery is on full display. But there's also the intimate side to the story between Paloma and the men. They're engaged, it's time for the wedding and the marriage. It's not all smooth sailing balancing 5 strong personalities. Tommy’s brusque, but definitely vulnerable. He may be their leader, but in this relationship, he makes the biggest mistakes. Clay shines in this book. He may push too much at times, but he's strong and true, all heart. Keith is a handful; mischievous and sexy, yet 100% with Paloma. Quinn’s still a tortured, brilliant soul who desperately needs Paloma's love. Paloma is more exposed this time. She's suffering from the lifetime of abuse she has endured and her men have a way of triggering her. It's great to see her start to understand herself and make demands. This new family has a lot to learn to make this marriage work, but enough love to see it through. It's clear that happiness will win out.
Rebecca Royce is one of my very favorite authors. Her characters are so true, complex, wonderfully flawed. Their relationships always ring true. The stories are always exciting. This story is suspenseful, sexy, sweet, incredibly funny, and moving. It's the perfect balance; between action and romance, between the individual relationships and the group, between the present and the past. I can not come up with one negative criticism and look forward to more in the future.

If you've read the previous Wings of Artemis Novels you would have been introduced to Paloma in Diana's arc, and Paloma had her own short story in the Falling for Them anthology. Which was called Meeting Them. And Paloma's story kind of runs along the same timeframe as Diana's. We've met the McQueen brothers (by the way how awesome a last name is that!) Really the sons of the infamous Garrison Sandler. I really loved Tommy and Clay and the twins Quinn and Keith. And the author did a really great job of setting them up well as characters in Meeting Them. I guess you can do that when you know theres going to be more than one story in store for them.
But they were developed even further and i think my allegiances have changed. I had a soft spot for Clay because he saw Paloma first in the Sisterhood. But i think Tommy is my favourite now. There was so much responsibility on his shoulders and the love he had for his brothers and Paloma was just beautiful. And beoke my heart seeing his pain.
I can see how this ties in to Diana's story and Im bouncing in my seat to read what happens next. And see what happens in this war than Garrison Sandler has started but Paloma and her hubbies will help finish. I am so excited to see what Saving Them will be.

While this book looks like the first in Paloma's arc, you must read the novella, Meeting Them, first. If you do not, then this book starts in the middle of her story, and trust me, you'll be confused.
Rebecca Royce has never disappointed me with her characters or plot and this is no different. Everyone in the story is well rounded and individual. I like that even though she has had other main characters in this series, none of her characters feel reused.
For me, the biggest positive about this book was the fact that it sort of takes place concurrently with Diana's story. We have not seen that yet in the Wings of Artemis world. I like knowing what Paloma was going through when we were with Diana in her books, and I liked that we sort of get a 'cameo' from both sets of characters in the books.
This book had a more subdued tone for me because it did not have as much action as previous books. Some of the other books felt like there was more at stake; however, this book was more about the relationship growth between Paloma and her guys. Near the end of the book, I could see the big events that are to come, but I was really glad that it did not end on a cliff-hanger.
I cannot wait to see what will happen to Paloma next. And I am super excited to see everything tie together.

While I enjoyed Paloma standing up for herself at times, she seemed to have a very weak overall personality, and I'm not really enjoying her arc as much as I did for Melissa and Diana. The men were okay, but they had been described as intense and focused for most of Diana's books, and I'm not sure if I actually got that feeling from them after finishing this full-length novel. The brothers all seemed to be highly intelligent and driven people, but I didn't really get the alpha personalities that I expected.
The dialogue and writing also stood out to be much more stilted in this book with lots of short sentences. Not sure if the previous books were like this, or if I just started noticing it. The pacing was inconsistent, and Paloma's dream sequences seemed to be out of place and were only introduced as a way to affirm the harem's love for each other. There was also a lot more random intimate and menage action in this book compared to previous ones.
It was still an enjoyable read to see what was happening on the other side of the galaxy while Diana was dealing with her own issues, but I finished the book for the overall world backstory rather than the individual book plot. It tried to include more political maneuvering rather than full of action like the previous books, but I think it fell short of its goal.

I don't know how, but this series manages to get better and better with each book! It's been too long since we've heard from Paloma and her men, and it's so great to see them again so in love, and kicking a$$ and taking names. They really exemplify the power and the true meaning of love and loyalty. With an ever intriguing plot, extraordinary writing, vivid imagery, and authentic and compelling characters, this series checks every box for outstanding paranormal romance. Engaging and passionate, these characters completely draw you into the story, and you just can't help but become obsessed with their lives. They hook you right from the start, and you remain riveted to the very last page. They make you believe in this exciting and extraordinary world Rebecca Royce has created for us. As with all the books in this series, I did not want to put this book down and was sad to see it come to an end. I am heartened though by the fact that I know there is more to come. This book was innovative and insightful, impassioned and impactful, romantic and hopeful, and absolutely enthralling. I would highly recommend it, and anxiously await the next installment in this series.

Paloma has suffered harshly for a youthful mistake. The four brothers who give her a chance at a new life have their own struggles. They all have supported each other and now faces their challenges together including their pasts. Their marriage gives them a chance to heal.
I have really enjoyed this series about women who have multiple husbands due to the scarcity of women in their society. I highly recommend you check them all out and read them in order. This series about Paloma is very entwined with the earlier series. You get enough information to understand the plot but you really will enjoy it more if you understand the other stories.
Paloma is really trying to deal with her anxieties. Her past has really left scars and she and her husbands have to be honest with each other and work out those issues.
There is great chemistry between her and each husband. I really like how the author develops each character and Paloma has a unique relationship with each one of them. There is also an honesty about the difficulties sometimes in balancing the relationships.

Paloma is really trying to deal with her anxieties. Her past has really left scars and she and her husbands have to be honest with each other and work out those issues.
There is great chemistry between her and each husband. I really like how the author develops each character and Paloma has a unique relationship with each one of them. There is also an honesty about the difficulties sometimes in balancing the relationships.

When I started this series it was with the beginning of Paloma's story and then I read the rest. I was very excited that she had another book and once I started I couldn't put it down! This is Paloma's and her husbands story of how they go back to Mars Station to fight Garrison Sandler, the husbands father. When they arrive they find out things that change the course they were headed. They're still going to fight the Sandler Army, and with help of new and old friends, but first they have to finally get married.
The author tells a great story that takes the characters to Mars Station and then to Earth. Through it all they all find out that there have been secrets kept, information to learn but one thing they know for sure is that they love each other and nothing is more important then their little family! I can't wait for the next book to find out what happens next!! I received a copy under no obligation.

I love Paloma and the McQueens. Definitely read the novella ‘Meeting Them’ before you start this book! There is so much established in the novella that you need to know before you read this and their relationship isn’t the same without the full backstory. I enjoyed this book as I have the rest of the series so far. I can’t say it enough how much I like the world building and plot development. Unlike the previous books this one really doesn’t end on any sort of cliffhanger. The book ends at a natural stopping point, which was a bit surprising to me actually because RR almost always writes a cliffhanger from what I’ve noticed. Like the other books in this series, most of what we see ‘on-screen’ is fairly pastoral with a few action events mixed in. There’s a lot of political maneuvering in this book that is giving us more of the backstory to the war we saw unfolding in Diana’s story.

I believe this book is the most well rounded of the series, so far. In the previous books, the relationships felt rushed and the flow of the books felt stunted. The scenes flowed so well from one to another and the characters are easily identifiable without having to go back to find out who was who. I think the author has clicked with the storyline and has created a convincing, slow paced love story with several plot twists. Even though we met Paloma and her guys in the novelette, Meeting Them, the pace it took them to become intimate felt just right. We get to know the guys with their idiosyncrasies and how Paloma has been able to pinpoint those personality quirks to better understand her men. Of course, the war against the Sandler Cartel is still going on and they are trying to find new resources to help with that battle.

LOVING THEM
When I receive a book to read in this series I just know I'm going to enjoy it, but I forget that these books are always fantastic and I love them so much. And 'Loving Them' is no exception. I absolutely loved it. It was exciting, entertaining, and totally captivating, and it was filled with action, intrigue, drama, and lots of hot loving. The characters were awesome, I loved each and every one of them for their own individual personalities quirks, and vulnerabilities. This author has a real flare for this genre, and does an amazing job building and creating these wonderful worlds and characters. Such an enjoyable read and I can't express how much I'm looking forward to Paloma's story, the conclusion to this fantastic series. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

I first got a glimpse into Paloma's story in the Falling for them anthology. It was the first story that I read by Rebecca and instantly loved her and the story. I then realized that her dedicated story was not til later in the series and waiting for it felt like torture, I am finally glad that we got some Paloma!!! I feel like Paloma has such a different personality from the 1st two female characters in the series and it was refreshing. It really makes the story stand out on it's own. As much as I loved Diana, Paloma is sneaking in 1st place for my favorite character from Rebecca. I am having a hard time waiting for the next one! You should absolutely give this book a try. I am not going to lie though, the whole black hole/timeline and who has the Artemis when is hard to keep up with, but still love the story!

Loving Them is a deeper look into Paloma's story. The story starts off with Paloma discovering how her relationship is going to work with her men the McQueens. As it builds and the McQueens delve further into their mission, we see the strength of all of them coming together and loving each other. They have lots of baggage they are carrying around, and it comes out. In the end it is better for all. The courage and strength of standing together is moving. I love how Paloma becomes in the end the support center of them.
Loving Them occurs along with Diana's story in Reclaiming Their Love and can be read with or after it. You should read Paloma's first story to better understand the time line.

Yet again another wonderful hot edition to this series. I love how she shows that not just men can love fully. We finally also get the full story of Paloma where she is the center in this one. She will also have 4 to start a life different then the one that has been traveled on. Of course the journey will also be filled with turbulence like life can be. The finesse that is involved in the relationship is what keeps me coming back for more of this series. We are given quite the adventure with nothing skimping having the fullness it deserves. The places we are taken is one way to get to travel too. With the adrenaline rush and heat you go through this one cruising through it all ready for more.

After the sisterhood where Paloma had been exiled is destroyed she finds her way to Quinn and his brothers. They aren't going to be staying there much longer, they needed to get to Mars Station and plot the takedown of their father.
Melissa welcomes Paloma back to the Station and the men start their planning.
Paloma wants a wedding and that is the plan, one that isn't stopped even when a bomb goes off inside the station.
There are plenty of things to overcome, one of which is actually being a Sandler. Paloma finds she is up to the challenge even as her husbands face revelation after revelation about their parents.
A fast paced read, with suspense, revenge, laughter, tears and plenty of heat!
I can't wait for the next book in this series!

Enjoyed this one as well. Still my favorite of the ladies' stories: Melissa, Diana & Paloma ...oh and Priscilla (short stand alone story).
As stated in my review for Meeting Them, we get to see more of the worlds and what life is like on them. This time from the Mars Station to Earth. We meet more family members. Paloma gets to tell off her parents and help her husbands get more political backing to aid their cause. While we do get to see more as we delve further it's kinda more like snorkling than deep sea diving. We get views but there seems to be so much more if you could dive deeper. But then again we aren't reading epics like a Tolkien novel just some decently fun enjoyable reads.

ARC - I voluntarily offered to review this book with no obligations and my opinions are honest!
This is the continuation of Paloma's story.
Paloma escaped the sisterhood.
Now along with her husband, she wants to revisit the Mars station.
Mars was the only home she ever knew.
She knows that it will summons old ghost.
Will their love survive the ghost of the past
I do think that they do have to let go of the past in order to move forward towards their future.
However, I don't think that Paloma should forgive her father so quickly.
With Paloma by their side, the Macqueen/Sanders are ready for face anything,
I can't wait for the next Paloma book.

I was given an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
With this book, Rebecca continues to tell the story of Paloma and the Sandler men as they battle to take the universe back from the Sandler patriarch. With this book, I really loved the complex heroine who is both week and strong. She has been through traumatic events and has anxiety attacks and fear, but that in no way makes her a weak character. She finds her strength and becomes the central pillar of strength her men need to keep their family together.
I consistently love the world building in this series and the way this plot line intertwined with the prior books in the series was very graceful.

The second part of Paloma's story and the excitement continues. Still making their way to Mars station they still have obstacles in their way and they are not sure of their reception by Melissa and her husbands.
Rebecca Royce keeps up the excitement and adventure in this well written story. Although each girls story can be read as a standalone it makes more sense to read them in order to get the fullest enjoyment out of this absolutely awesome series. I am looking forward to reading the next in this series and hope that she continues to write more Wings of Artemis, I highly recommend this series in my opinion it is a damn good series

Absolutely positively amazing as always, Rebecca Royce story weaving freaking ROCKS!
Anyway it was awesome to be with Paloma, Tommy, Clay, Quinn and Keith again.
And it was nice to see Melissa and Diana again along with Ari.
I gotta say each book that I read of this series just pulls me in deeper and I actually pout when I get to the end of each book because I don’t want to leave the reality that I am visiting.
I’ve always been a sucker for sci-fi RH it’s my absolute favorite genre, which is probably why I love this series so much.
So heck yeah I most definitely recommend this book because I thought it was fantastic and I think everyone should read this book!

Very Intriguing
The plot is what pulls you in to this book and keeps you there. The world building is great. The relationship between the main characters are a struggle and a blessing. They are all broken but they all love each other. Good relationships with supporting characters as well.
-POV of female MC
-Female MC is 21-22, 4 brothers are 24-26
-Female MC is broken, realistically due to her experiences, but stands up for herself and is still positive mostly.
-There is steam, light sharing scenes. The steam isn’t what I would call very descriptive, but I would rather the actions over feelings be explained.
-Dystopian sci-fi. No body modification to the humans.

The passion in this one is by far the best! I am once again blown away by Rebecca's gift! This book brings out all the feels! At one point I could hardly breathe as my throat closed up as I tried soooo hard not to cry! Cliffhanger? Not like some. Is there more to the story? Of course! That's why we love to read this series! The characters, which are always fantastic, may change and interact, but the story continues as Rebecca weaves them all through this epic tale! I am looking forward to finding out . . . well I will let you read it to find out what is yet to come.

Paloma and her Fiancés have made it to Mars station to warn Melissa and two of her husbands Nolan and Wes about Garrison Sandler's evil plans to take over everything. Oh there are plans with in plans , twists and turns lol this story is amazing. I love the characters and how they interact. The action, mystery, drama, intrigue, betrayal, spice, is Realy fantastic. I couldn't put it down. I am hooked and can't wait to read the next book to see what happens next.
Voluntarily reviewed a copy and I honestly loved it.

Ahh, Rebecca Royce just keeps getting better with each book she writes. Loving Them backtracks a bit from Reclaiming Their Love but don’t worry, it’s not confusing. It actually gave me so much perspective on what happened in the two year jump between books three and four. Anyways…there were a lot of feels here. The steam level started off low but then went steamy hot by the end of the book. Paloma and her men are still in the infant stages of their relationship and I love that Royce shows the stumbles along the way. It’s not all happy happy joy joy and I appreciate that.
Paloma is still rather skittish, soft, and sweet. She has reason to be. The guys’ personalities are emerging more and more. Tommy’s still the gruff, growly one but his soft spot is definitely exposed now. Clay’s big heart is on display and I just want to cuddle him. Keith’s mischievous side is still there but you get to see his serious side as well. Lastly, Quinn’s tortured soul is very much apparent. In the novella, Meeting Them, I wasn’t completely sold on all the guys. But trust me, after Loving Them, I am sold lock, stock, and barrel.
This is another notch on Royce’s RH bedpost. I continue to enjoy her stories and I love the unique world that she’s created within the Wings of Artemis series. Maybe once peace has been established, I can find my way into the fictional world? Who wouldn’t want five men to treasure her, pamper her, and treat her like a queen?
