An Aurelian Law Enforcement Squad triad, Ryder🐺, Adrihan🐺, and Xzavic🐺, are assigned to a human military unit, headed by Sandra Bellinks💋, after the planet Caladin🌍 is laid waste by Rav'nok, the Aurelian planet killer.
Sandra💋💃 thinks all Aurelians are arrogant sobs, so she can boss these three men around because they are just above cadet grade in the Law Enforcement Agency. OOPS!
Not happening!
When their ship comes out of phase shift at Caladin's🌍 coordinates, the planet🌍 is gone! Then they're attacked and their ship damaged so bad they have to crash land on another isolated planet🌍.

Miss Smarty Pants💃💋 will soon find out she has three new bosses!

I also got the book with KU.

Great world building descriptions, some battles, and a good story had me absorbed in this Adult Alpha Alien Romance with BDSM elements.

This story would have been great without the angst of the bond. It didn't feel natural and for such an all consuming thing it needed to come more naturally. In previous books the submissiveness the bond causes has tended to overtake all else about the heroines which killed the books for me. While in this one the author tries to walk it back some and show the heroines from previous books having a life outside of giving birth it doesn't resonate or feel natural. I've read other books that work well and involve women having lives that are "controlled" by their men but contain that submission more to the home or have that complete submission as already being a part of their personality. This series just can't seem to strike a balance. It want's to take strong willed and alpha type women and make them happily and totally submissive with no gradual build up of finding a new aspect of their personality. Maybe if these were dark romances with non consent or dubious consent that would be okay but trying to keep them as just Ds doesn't work.

***I decided to review an ARC of this book.***

On the fence

She was so needy considering she was the supercop. The best part was the last two chapters,!she seemed more like the character I expected her to be based in her introductory chapter in the beginning of the book. Also disliked that she always had to be saved, like come on already girl.

There were also a ton more spelling and grammar errors than the previous books. This book could use a thorough editing.

Non-stop action, with unexpected twists! Please read series in order - Highly Recommend!

For adults only (18+ years) Contains subject matter that may be a trigger, or offensive to some, including: adult language throughout, steamy detailed adult intimate scenes (MF, MFM, MFMM, spanking, bondage, etc.) and violence (fighting, murder, kidnapping, etc.). If any of these are a trigger, or offensive to you, then this may not be the story or series for you.

Do not read this review if you have not read the first two books of the series as it may provide spoilers from one or both of those stories.

I have been waiting on this story, and it did not disappoint. It has a great plot, surprising and unexpected twists, loaded with lots of action and sets up some additional story lines for the future. This one also has a different take on the fated mate bond between Aurelians and female humans, which I quite enjoyed, although Sandra had a distorted view of the previous two female heriones and what the bond did or did not influence. Hopefully there will be another story very soon!

Okay ... last chance to stop before there may be spoilers from the previous 2 stories.

Here is a high level overview of how the story begins:

Sandra Bellinks is an Inspector with the Human Alliance; the youngest to ever achieve this position. She is very driven by her desire to wipe out the cartels and working her way up to be the Police Commissioner, which is her ultimate goal. She was enjoying her day off with 1 of the infantrymen when she received an alert that required her to report right away, much to his chagrin.

Sandra left immediately and reported to her superior and mentor, John Marrock. On her way she was able to read about Rav'nok eradicating another planet, Caladin the water planet, that resulted in the loss of 8B people. John assigned Sandra as their representative along with the other teams from the various areas under the Human Alliance. She can choose her own team, but must accept an Aurelian triad. She is not happy about their inclusion because they are known for their dominance over human females in their harems. Therefore, Sandra wants them to assign her new agents, 1 step above cadets, as to hopefully minimize their interference and trying to take over the investigation. She exited John's office and called out to 5 people she wanted on the case, excluding Grant based upon their previous history.

Adrihan and Ryder were sparring when they felt true agony and grief through their triad bond. They rushed to Xzavic and held him against the wall while he gained some control over his emotions. When they completed their 100 years of service, Xzavic was the only one to take a female, Rebecca. They were not fated mates, but he loved her above all others, and swore he would have no others. She had traveled to Caladin to visit family and perished when Rav'nok destroyed the planet.

Then they are called to their commander's office, which is confusing to them since they are new officers, just 1 step above cadets. When they arrive the tension begins to build when they find Emperor Reagan, Queen Jasmine, and the rest of their triad, as well as Ella and her triad. Ella was the human that set Rav'nok free accidentally when she freed her friend. This is too much for Xzavic, Adrihan and Ryder due to what just happened, but only Xzavic loses it and they have to remove him from the office. They are being placed on the Rav'nok investigation, which is a confusing and unexpected opportunity, but they are given clear instructions to not try and take over the investigation, which they know will be hard for their leaders to enforce once they leave.

Sandra drops off her team at their new offices and gives them clear instructions on what she needs and when. She is going to get Rav'nok and not let the Aurelians take over the investigation. Then she feels their ship landing and goes to meet them. It is important to start off as she meant to continue. They arrive on a reaver and she realizes exactly how large they are when they exit. Unfortunately they are exactly her type but she is still surprised at the feelings she has when looking Adrihan and the others. After some interesting introductions, Sandra tells them she is going to see what if any clues can be discovered at Caladin and asks them if they want to come.

They take the reaver due to its size. Sandra is a little concerned about being isolated with Aurelians after hearing about how they can be lost in a mating frenzy, but things stay somewhat professional. No matter how aroused she becomes, Sandra is not crossing the line of being with a subordinate. Then they phase-shift and arrive at what is basically an asteroid field. Sandra spots something that lets them determine where Rav'nok is potentially stationed. Then they are hit by an orb-beam. The ship is damaged and they are either going to die from lack of oxygen in deep space, or phase-shift without knowing where they would end up and get lucky enough to find a place to crash land.

I am going to stop there ... enjoy!

🤨🙁
I would give it 2 stars, but compared to the other 2, this one is definitely better (mainly because the humiliation element is not like the other ones, so I felt less conflicted, I guess) so I'm gonna give 3 stars (but I don't think it deserves this score, more like 2.5).
The female protagonist actually has a career, you know? And it's not a virgin lady that takes 3 huge males like a pro while being exposed in front of a whole crowd (this just makes her wayyyyyy better than the other one).
She's not stupid, neither that intelligent. I could understand the times she got stubborn and it didn't sound really childish. She was not annoying (just in one or another situation).
I did not like how she was constantly being the "damsel in distress", but I could handle it. At least she got some courage in some moments.
Again, there is not much plot (but better than the other two) and I still dislike how it seems like even the more dominant and independent female becomes a needy toy/slut at the sigh of some alien cock (3 👽 cocks), but, again, I could handle as I felt she had some backbone.
This book will definitely feel better after you read the first two as you can breath a sigh of relief at seeing at least one decent female character (compared to the other two, because this one is not that much).
I felt the ending could be wayyyyyyy better and I was disappointed, but with what was presented to me previously, I will just close an eye and feel content with what I got.
Honestly, the only reason I didn't abandoned it was because I actually bought the box version with the 3 books and I had nothing better to do in a place without internet, that's what I had.
Overall, I guess I just have a problem with this entire world created by the author so I don't think I'll come back. Maybe I'll read the Scorpio one as one of my friends told me she enjoyed the first one. But I don't really know.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.

~ Chasing the Planet Killer ~

Inspector Sandra Bellinks gets exactly what she expects when she meets the triad of freshly graduated Aurelian Agents, Adrihan, Ryder, and Xzavic, the team she was ordered work with, as Sandra is granted the huge boon to be in charge of the most prestigious case her superior has even given her: hunting down Rav’nok, the “Planet Killer.” She has no choice but to work with these three hulking, arrogant aliens to capture the one responsible for the recent utter destruction of the planet Caladin and its eight billion inhabitants.

The three experienced but young Agents were of one single mind: hunt down and kill Rav’nok. There was a very personal reason for one of them, one which kept Sandra from him at arm’s length. But once they realized what a fierce humanoid Sandra was, and that she strengthened them all in more ways than one, there was nothing left to do but to risk their all going forward with their plan in what will turn out to be the most dangerous quest of their lives.

A really well-written & steamy story, which flowed from the beginning. Enjoyed the possibilities of the satellite Aurelians they encounter on their adventure as well as the world this author created. Looking forward to reading more stories!

Wow what a absolutely fantastic book this was to read. There were so many things i just loved about this story it will be hard to list them all.. First off all i found that it was great to finally come across a great story that had more than 15 chapters in it. It gave the story more body, more detail, so that in itself was a plus for me.
I also loved the story as it had action throughout the whole book and it intrduced a whole differnt type of Aurelians (exciting i tell you).
As for the Characters, i loved all three of the men they may be a triad but they each know each others emotions. Oh and i cant let the fact that they are tall and they certainly know how to please a women. As for Sandra im glad her character had a submissive side, for myself im not a fan of a total controlling women.
This Author has really done a fabulous job. Thank you.

Sandra Bellinks has been put in command of findind Ravnok, he has just destroyed an entire planet. With the new relations between the Aurlians and humans she must work with triad. Adrihan,Ryder, Xzavic. These four must work together to overcome the dangers that they face.

Sandra loves her job even when fate gives her three aliens who are going with her when she is on a mission to stop the evil alien for destroying even more planets.

The three aliens are not just aliens, they are a triad and they are good looking too.
When they have a look at the place where the last planet was which was destroyed they get in trouble and the end result is crashing down on an unknown planet. There Sandra finds out she can not only resists the three men, but is also their bonded mate. No way she wants to be that, but in the mean time the moments together with all three of them, pfff so hot!

They have to fight on this planet and show what they can do.
Next they go on with their mission and there is no time to think about being a bonded mate.

Will they get to the evil alien on time? And what happens when they have time to discover what they want with the four of them?
For that you have to read the book. You won't regret it when you are into hot aliens, the way they take care of their woman, action and a strong woman

I really liked this read, I’m always a bit skeptical when it comes to Alien romances but this had a great story. It was action packed, full of adventure, and full of steamy interludes in the midst of war, battle, being stranded on an unknown planet and survival. The world building was very well done (especially when you take into account how difficult coming up with alien plants must’ve been). Also the characters were easy to like and the female MC had a good head on her shoulders. Sandra wasn’t going to bow down to anyone and had zero intentions on compromising her goals, aspirations or career for anything or anyone. Bond be damned! I did not read the previous books in this world but found it unnecessary to have done so to enjoy this story. Overall this was a thoroughly entertaining read.

Submission

In a time such as now when women are still seeking equal pay, so many stories of women placed in BDSM submissive roles have risen in the erotic genre. I find them titillating but not compelling enough to want to explore myself; and yet, this story I can really appreciate. A strong woman of strong, almost ferocious character, finds herself in the grip of lust for 3seemingly overpowering Aurelians. Ms. Cain handles a woman's need for equality within sexuality deftly and forthrightly. At no time did I feel that the heroine was mistreated or coerced to participate in any sexual situation that she hadn't fully consented to. She made her own decisions, and her grew to not only lust for her but love her as well. The story was a joy to read. It had elements of all genres I adore: erotic, romance, science fiction, and thriller. Ms. Cain combined all 4 in a sweeping saga of a story.

Catching up on reviews. Didn’t realize kindle wasn’t marking these completed.

Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...

1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.

2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.

3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.

4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.

5 stars... I loved this book! It has earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ASAP.

This is the first story that I have read by this author and I can't wait to read more. I was swept into the story and couldn't put it down.

Sandra has been given the task of finding Rav'nok, the planet killer after a planet is destroyed. Three Aurelians warriors, Adrihan, Ryder and Xzavic are assigned to her task-force. They have different fews on women and Sandra is determined that they follow her lead. When they are stranded on planet, their roles are changed and they bonded. Each of them have to overcome something to make their bond complete. Will they get off the planet and destroyed Rav'nok before another planet is destroyed?

Another fantastic alien romance by Corin Cain, this is the 2nd book of Corin’s that I have read and I will definitely be reading more from this author. Sandra has been put in charge of a task force to find the planet killer Ravnok, she has 3 Aurlians joining her ranks Adrihan, Ryder and Xzavic. These men are not happy about having a woman being in command of them after all they treat women like their play things but when they look at Sandra they all have hunger in their eyes. There’s action, adventure, danger, passion some hot sexy scenes and so much more to keep you entertained and turning the pages. a fantastic story and I highly recommend this book it’s definitely well worth the read.

A new addition to the Aurelian alien series. To submit to them would me becoming their slave to create their sons. That is all Sandra sees when she looks at the alien males. She is a high ranking officer in the Earth alliance and has no plans of ever giving that up. Especially for some alien males. But when put together with them they will hunt the villain that destroys planets. Will she let a bond decide her future? Lots of action and fighting. The scenes can get very hot but the dominance is actually pretty light in this one.

Didn't Like How It Ended

I didn't like how the story ended. There was no epilogue like in the other stories in this series. Does Sandra finally get pregnant after fully giving into submission? Does the rest of her triad finally tell her they love her? Do they marry? Is Sandra able to juggle having children and her job?

To me the story ended too soon and I was left hanging. The other stories in this series bring in the characters from the other books. I would like to know more about Sandra and her triads future.

Desperately Seeking an Editor!

I'm not even going to comment on the quality of the storyline simply because the standard of writing is let down so grossly by the extremely high number of spelling and grammatical mistakes! I was unable to read more than 3 pages before my eyes were stumbling over another nail down chalk board like screaming error totalling killing the mood of the plot line. I'm not saying everyone should be word perfect or anything but if you know you can't spell or don't have good grammar and are trying to write a book? HIRE AN EDITOR!!!

This is an action-packed romance that I couldn't put down. Sandra asked for lower rank Aurelians, but even that might be too much to handle. She gets three hunky aliens who have no intention of letting her have the lead. Their interactions are steamy, their romance is touching, and the action going on around them is intense. In short, it has everything I love about this genre and I can't wait for more.

Mated to the Alien Warriors

Corin Cain has again managed to write an amazing story. It has everything that a reader of this genre needs and wants. It seems to be the end of this series but I do hope that she will be writing more of this type. She has a way with words that makes it seem as if you're right there in the moment with the characters. What more can a reader ask for?

It took me a while to finish this one. I really couldn't get into this group of people. Sandra was too independent if that makes sense. Her constant groaning about her career and not wanting to be breeding machine was annoying. Her absolute need to be in control was just crazy after awhile. I guess I just didn't identify with her. I liked the Aurelians just fine and the story was interesting. Series is interesting, so I may read some more. Heat level is 🔥🔥🔥🔥.

They are stronger together...
Rav’nok the planet killer is at it again. Sandra is the inspector that has been tasked with bringing him to justice. She’s teamed up with three Aurileans that are her fated mates. They have to fight for their lives before they can even get to Rav’nok. Changing in unimaginable ways. Sandra is worried that if she stays with her fated mates, Ryder, Adrihan, and Xzavic she will end up a baby making submissive instead of the strong police commander she longs to be.

She is sent to get a planet killer and these three aliens are under her helping to catching him. They are hot and full of lust and wanting and also brothers. She has duties to fulfill first. The adventure begins from here. It is exciting, surprising, emotional, hot and steamy, suspenseful and so much more. I was given a review copy by booksprout and voluntarily review it.

This was a real page-turner of a book. I couldn't put it down and after reading it once, I had to go and read the other books in this series before enjoying this book again. Would recommend reading the first two books before reading this one to get the background, but it is a great read on its own. Enjoy cheering for the 'good guys' and seeing the sparks fly.

I'm not sure where at in the book I am as my Kindle says it's protected by DRM and won't let me open it. Which is weird as I got this through KU. (Probably an update screwing with me.) I loved the other 2 books in this series but for some reason I'm not connecting with the main female lead here. I'm DNF'ing this one.
