Another fantastic story following along in the path of the first one. Being abducted doesn’t seem as bad to Natalie now. Intriguing to find out what happens The story is superb
April 23, 2019
Natalie was abducted by aliens and at first, will fight the experience and cling to the thought of her fiance back on Earth. However, over time she will realise that he was abusive and that it wasn't a good relationship (so she is better off out of it). Zelan is a pure-blood alien and knows his chance of love with a human is remote but really wants to settle down. When he meets Natalie he knows she is the one. Can his respectful treatment of her and determination to give her the time to make up her mind he hopes it is enough to win her heart. A different alien race of Insectoids are on the planet and hunting for humans to use to reproduce so they can conquer the planet. Can them defeat them and stop the spread?
This was a sweet story of how a slow, respectful and gentle approach will win over what your heart desires. It will also prove to Natalie that she is much stronger than she thinks and that this is a great opportunity to start a whole new life. I loved the story premise and as for the insectoids if you didn't like them to start with you might well at the end. Well written and very enjoyable, this was a nice light read featuring a great example of interstellar relations going well.

Great Series Continuation
This book could be read by itself, but it is better if you have read Book 1 (Worlds Away) in this series.
In Worlds Away, we briefly meet Natalie and then never hear from her again. Worlds Collide is her story. Natalie is still pining for Ben - the man she left behind on Earth. However, LT Zelan has let her know he wants her to be his mate. This is the story of Natalie struggling with self-identity, realizing her relationship with Ben was very flawed, becoming an independent woman, and (since this is also a romance) falling for Zelan.
Commander Venay and Paris are back and play an important role. Most of the rest of the humans and V’Zenians are props for this story although a few characters do get developed.
This story is well-told. We know how it probably ends, but the path is anything but straight. This was fun to read and proved entertaining. I look forward to the final book in the trilogy.

Squash those bugs!!
This book is Worlds Collide, book 2 of Alpha Alien Abduction Tale, written by JL Hendricks. I enjoyed reading Natalie and Zelan's story and I look forward to another installment in this series. I loved how Ms Hendricks dragged us all to outer space and abandoned us on a planet. Quite an interesting premise. Can't wait to see how their new families will continue to solidify and grow!

I felt like getting off this planet, so I picked up this book. There is so much to enjoy about this read. The fun characters. The zany plot. The twisty turns. I liked it all.
Natalie is adjusting to alien life. She finds her abductor's veins turn different colors according to their emotions. Wondering how this would change life on earth, should everyone knew each person's emotional state. Fun to consider.

Avoid
In a word--boring. I kept waiting for something to happen. Dialog was silly and character interactions we're pedantic. I definitely won't be reading another one in this series. I don't like ending a book feeling like it was a waste of my time.

Great
This second book is just as good as the first. This one they begin moving the humans to the colony when a new wave of bugs attack. Natalie marries Zelan at the end of this.

Book 2
Same writing style issues, but the storyline and characters make it worth the read. I'm off to read Book 3. 😉

Slave or Mate
This is Natalie and Zelan's story and it picks up exactly where the last story left off. It continues with the aliens and humans fighting the Z's (insectoid aliens) while trying to defend the colony on the planet. Natalie has feelings for Zelan but she wants to make up her own mind without the pull of the mating fever or just to avoid being a slave. It also bothers her that his job requires him to abduct humans for the slave trade on his home world. Again, the fight these human females have ahead of them is staggering. Can they really "fall" for a race that thinks nothing of enslaving another? This dilemma is what makes the story so real.

Alpha Alien Abduction Tale 2
Can Natalie get past her abusive ex-fiance and find true love?
Natalie is on a journey to realize that maybe being abducted wasn’t so bad after all. Before she can learn that, she will realize what her old fiancé was really like, and how her new life might be just what she wanted all along.
Zelan wanted to settle down, but as a pure-blood, he realized his chances of love with a human, or anyone, were very low. He is very patient with Natalie, and shows her the love and attention every woman deserves. Will he win her heart?
The Zateelians are on the planet and searching for humans! Early on in this book you will find out why. But don’t fret! Our super strong and hunky aliens have it all under control, or do they?
If you like a clean version of Ruby Lionsdrake adventure/romance books, then you will love Worlds Away and Worlds Collide, part of the Alpha Alien abduction Tales. Be sure to grab your copies of all books today!
Total Score: 5/5
Summary:
Imagine being kidnapped, taken off world by aliens who gave you two choices, to take a mate or become a slave and little better than cattle. Those are Natalie's choices and she isn't happy with them. She found herself very attracted to Zelan, a warrior, but she has a fiance( Ben) and is supposed to be loyal to him or is she? Her life with Ben wasn't perfect, but is was what her parents wanted. Natalie sees her friends happy and mated, but getting over your past isn't easy even when it will make your life easier. Add to that a brewing war pitting Zelan's people against a race of insectoids who want to use all of them as incubators for their young. That whole idea was too disgusting for Natalie to take especially when she found herself and her friend Paris in the middle of a fight for their lives.
This fast paced and action packed story held me spellbound until the very end as Natalie has to choose the direction her life will go. Slavery versus mating with an alien whose people have been kidnapping humans for hundreds of years. There plight is understandable, but the whole idea of slave trading is one most people like Natalie can't accept. It interesting how both sides had valid reasons, but as Paris and Natalie realize there are other options if they can just get their men and others Zateelians better understand and accept.

Enjoyable READING EXPERIENCE BY J.L.HENDRICKS
J.L.HENDRICKS writes a wonderful little alien romance with a change of pace,HER H is as protective,possessive yet patient with his h while she decides to mate with him. Although I prefer the more Alpha male who is just bigger than life,I enjoyed the characters story. So check it out for yourself and see if you do too! I'm recommending everybody to!

As hard as she tries, Natalie can not stop her attraction to Zelan, the gorgeous V'Zenian who abducted her from Earth. It is not easy for them to get to know one another as they are under constant attack from the Zateelians. Another lovely clean romance by J.L.Hendricks. I look forward to the next book in the series, Worlds Entwined.

Absolutely wonderful
This is such an awesome book with just as interesting characters? This is one adventure you will not be able to put down? Filled with steamy romance and highly recommended series.

Even better than the first book in the series!
I love a happily ever after and this book did not disappoint me. There were not as many character developments as I would have liked. This is a really good book for YA sci-fi.

Good alien mates story. Natalie is delightfully conflicted as Paris was before her. Lots of cockroach combat. Numerous unanticipated turns of events.
I received a copy of this book as a gift. This is my honest review.

This is turning out to be a great series that keeps you reading late into the night. The storyline is moving faster as the characters emotional level get adrenaline hits. The world building puts you in the front seat, taking it all in like you are there. Can't wait to see how everything turns out.

Very enjoyable sci fi
Must read in order to enjoy the fullest parts of the series. An interesting discussion of freedom and human rights is embedded and is thoughtfully handled.

This book did not disappoint. I kind of think it's a little funny how people are dying the bond. I think life would be much easier if it were really like that sometimes. Can't wait to read the next one!
