~Swipe right for abduction~

Two minutes ago I was lying in my hospital bed, waiting to die of cancer, reading an awesome sci fi romance on a mysteriously delivered e-reader.

Now I'm in another galaxy, cancer free. The aliens abducted me because they want me to be a bride for one of their warriors. Weird. The whole thing sounds a lot like the story I was just reading...

Except the surly warrior who’s supposed to claim me doesn't want a mate.

This series is so good!! I didn't think I would like Bogdan but he grew on me. Bogdan was definitely a tougher Master than Gavril from the first book but Pareena didn't seem to mind. I'm enjoying the overarching story line and we just found out some doozy info at the end of this book. I can't wait for Arkdhem's story to find out what happens. I hope it gets released soon!!

I just can’t
It’s too I’m your Dom you’re the sub for me. Don’t get me wrong, I like a little bdsm from time to time but I’m not into the whole pain and punishment for sexual gratification thing. Some light spanking, sure. Maybe even a little something extra but when paddles and belts and bigger accoutrements come into play I’ll pass thank you very much. I’m just at 20% gees! Just not my cup of tea.
On to the next adventure

Pareena and Bogdan's story is wonderfully crazy. Imagine you e reader asking you questions and the the telling you to "swipe right for alien abduction"! Would you? I certainly would!!
They have their trials and tribulations and oh my, those alien appendages and seela!
What a fantastical alien story!

Pareena is the Alien Tribute

After her e-reader flashes a questionaire to her as she lays dying, she fills it out and gets the message to swipe right for abduction. Pareena is now the Tribute for second in command, Bogdan, who doesn't really want a mate. As she is being prepared for her Master, Pareena wears a Bride Trainer that keeps her on edge for sex/mating with her new master. There is a bit of resentment from Commander Arkhem who is third in line, he wanted his own Tribute and Bogdan doesn't seem to appreciate that he got Pareena. There is also the threat from the Vgotha who the Tsenturions were told destroyed their planet and killed everyone on it. The only Tsenturions left were the warriors that were away on their space ships. Bogdan is suffering from survivors guilt, the mate he had chosen for himself died and he feels he shouldn't be rewarded with his own Tribute. Pareena is living and cured, her body restored, even all her hair has grown back after the affects of her chemo. Unfortunately she thinks she's living in a dream caused by falling into a coma. Everyone must face facts and move forward with their lives while still ready to defend themselves from the threat of battle, should the situation arrive. There are a lot of twists and turns. Some people must learn to trust, while others need to let go of their false beliefs. There were quite a few references to Harry Potter and many instances where Pareena is convinced she's living in a dream world, but I guess that kept a lot of reader's interest. In the end, we get a HEA and a teaser of the next Tribute and the warrior who gets her. Looking forward to Tsenturion Masters book 3!!!

Beware Your Reading Material!!

I love both these authors, and together there is a little something extra in there!!

The premise is Aliens take our reading material as a guide for how to court humans…… Book #1 was terrific! In this book tribute #1 is at least able to change some of the “rules”; someone who has no family and no ties – and in this case it is someone dying from cancer. Of course, the Alien technology can heal her. She at first thinks she is in a dream/coma but begins to realize this is her new reality.

Unfortunately, her Alien Bogdan lost a mate, and wants to remain true to her memory. A roller-coaster ride of emotions which include humor, frustration and scintillating scenes. A terrific read!!

The review I should've read before I mistakenly bought this book!

First off this book needs to have a warning! If you do NOT like BDSM and excessive explicit sex scenes, then don't buy this book! I swiped past almost the first 6 chapters to get to some semblance of a story line. I gave the review 2 stars cuz there is a story line. It could've been a good one. But the female characters are unrealistic. The h is supposedly a Dr of psychology, but she continually twitters on about Harry Potter references, behaving more like a middle schooler. There are so many things that made me mad in this book. I normally don't like writing reviews, but I felt a warning needs to be put out there. Maybe if the book was severely edited it would be worth a read.

Book two in this series is just as good as the first one. The story was great and had all the wonderful feels to it. It's hot and steamy and made for a wonderful couple of hours of reading time. Do yourself a favor and pick this book up.

Book 2 in this Tsenturion Masters series, a sci fi read full of hot sexy aliens, but with more emotions and drama with this one!

Dr Pareena Singh is literally on her deathbed in hospital, answering questions on her e-reader before being taken through a wormhole onto their alien ship. She awakes but thinks she is in a coma still in hospital as she has been cured from her cancer and made stronger overall, having been matched to Bogdan as a mate, based on her answers on the e-reader.

Bogdan has always been against the idea of any further tributes or mates, his belief that they should find the Vgotha who were responsible for the destruction of his home planet, where his betrothed mate was. He takes on his duty to Pareena but with the firm idea of not becoming a mate, but doing his duty to save his species. He is known throughout the ship to be staunch, cold and emotionless, so the rest of this ship are quite in awe that he has been assigned a tribute, especially Arkdhem who thinks he would be better suited for a tribute.

Another great read with a few twists in the plot line regarding the Vgotha. I really felt for Pareena and could completely sympathise with her, not being able to tell if it was real or just a dream with everything she has gone through. I loved how she uses her doctors skills to try and help the rest of the crew to come to terms with the loss of their home planet, using group therapy sessions.

The connection between Pareena and Bogdan was hot and sexually charged, surprisingly full of emotions that Bogdan had kept locked inside him, but once he opened up to Pareena their connection was very intense. I enjoyed the Vgotha plot also, some great twists in there adding to the overall drama and tension in the read. Very enjoyable, I can't wait for more in this series.

If you read “Alien Captive,” the first book in the series, you met Dr. Pareena Singh. She was dying from cancer and was resigned it her fate. She didn’t think much of “swipe right for abduction.” I mean if you saw that on your ereader or kindle, would you think twice. Probably not. I know I would swipe right. The world that Pareena is swept into is so fantastical that is not to be believed. But the warrior that she is to be her master, doesn’t want a Tribute. Bogdan is CMD Gavrill’s second. We met him and his Tribute Dawn in book one. Bog is an angry alien from what I can tell. He has no interest in the Tribute.
I have to say that these two are made for one another. I guess the questions that you have to answer to become a Tribute really match you well. Almost like the Interstellar Bride Program from Grace Goodwin. The difference is in that, you are in a chair and you experience what another did to match you. I so enjoy these kinds of books. They take you on a journey that I would LOVE to take. Not only as an escape but to experience different worlds and “other parts.” Let’s face it, the “parts” are really what makes your jaw drop. The story does get intense in some parts. We once again meet the Vgotha. We also learn more about the Jabol. There is also another surprise. This is getting better and better. The action and adventure is great. And I love the Harry Potter reference. I can’t wait to find out what happens with Marta and Arkdhem.

Much better than first book.

I liked the first book (I gave it 3.5 stars) but I found some aspects of it to be really annoying. This book was so much better, with no annoying bits! I loved Pareena. I loved that she wasn’t a whiny crybaby, unlike Dawn. I was also surprised to really like Bogdon. He was such an as*hat in the first book I thought I would hate him, but he was actually surprisingly good, and certainly much better than Gavril. I thought the chemistry between Pareena and Bogdon was also much better than Dawn and Gavril. Pareena was a more experienced sub, so there was a lot less awkwardness and the scenes between her and Bogdon were extra hot.

I absolutely loved the story. It has developed much more from Book 1. Although I saw the “twist” coming, I still enjoyed it! It was very well written. I am really looking forward to the next book!

Having read and thoroughly enjoyed the first book in this series, I couldn't wait for the next one to be ready for reading! And the book certainly did not disappoint! Our main character, Pareena is dying of cancer when her e-reader asks her to swipe right for abduction. Not believing that it will lead to anything she swipes right. But then when she wakes up in an alien world she simply assumes she has slipped into a coma and is dreaming. But since it is only a "dream," Pareena decides why not enjoy the dream while it lasts and take advantage of all it has to offer. Careful, what's on your e-reader might just lead to the unexpected happening! This series is fun and different and I can't wait to see what's next.

Simply fantastic and also phenomenal - the idea of the abduction by the e-reader into another world is charming, figuratively suitable and excellently implemented.

Gladly more of it - one click and on into the next adventure.

Alien Tribute

There were good things going on but when women are abducted and forced to call their partners "master" and get physically punished by paddles and switches for not submitting then I am not impressed.

Another brilliant alien novel from the dazzling duo. Pareena is strong and uses her head, while Bogdan has his issues. A thrilling adventure to pass the time!

Even though I gave book one 3 stars, there were certain elements about it that made me wanted to try the second book. So I decided to give this one a chance.

Plot: continuing from book 1, we move to Bogdon (H) the second in command of the Tsenturions, who is informed that a human female has being found and matched to him. The human female is Dr Pareena Singh, a PhD graduate with a psychology degree. Pareena is in palliative care in the final stages of cancer. She found an e-reader with erotic alien stories. At the end of the stories, there was a questionnaire asking whether she wanted to live. In that situation, for any young woman would answer “yes”, then swiped and was abducted.

I found this book much better than book 1. The plot was well planned and Pareena had a different attitude towards her role as a tribute. The set up for this book was logical (who wouldn’t want a second chance to live?). Bogdon was always against the program because the alien he was going to bond to had died in the annihilation of their planet. The set up with Pareena as psychologist helped him move on as well as the other warriors who were having issues with survivors guilt. We get a better understanding of the Agotha and a twist in the overall plot at the end of this story. Like the previous book, there is a lot sex, heavily on BDSM, since these warriors are still using the Romance novels as their training manuals (making this Alien BDSM erotica). The relationship build up and chemistry between Bogdon and Pareena is much more emotional compared with the previous book.

I gave this 4 stars due to the editing with some words switched the other way around. This one was much more enjoyable than the previous book and I know I’m interested in reading book 3.

#SciFi #Alien #GrumpyHero #BDSM

Book two of the series can be read as a standalone. That said, there are some spoilers in this book, and to book one and an overarching plot line to the series. Readers should be aware it is probably best read in order. It is written in first person from an alternating dual POV and ends with a HEA..

Pareena has fought a long hard battle with cancer on Earth. When given the option to "swipe right for abduction" she has nothing to lose. Bogdan is the grumpy second in command of the Tsenturion fleet. He is growly and scowly, and certainly not interested in a mate. Pareena is perfect for Bogdan though. She has training that helps her see the pain inside the broody alien and work to help him move past it.

This book is so much deeper than you would think. The characters deal with elements of grief in all its stages. I appreciated the many steamy scenes, but what I loved even more was the tender relationship that forms between Pareena and Bogdan. I love how diligent he has been to make sure he has completed the training in preparation for his Tribute. I loved his possessive and protective nature. Pareena is incredibly brave. She rolls with everything that she experiences with a fearlessness of one who has been near death. She embraces life, even when it may only be a dream, and commits to living fully. There are some tense action moments in the story relating to the Vgotha aliens, moments of sadness, and moments of loving commitment. I am absolutely loving this series. The epilogue sets up the next book, and I can't wait to squeeze it into my schedule.

Action packed, emotional ride - highly recommend!

Contains subject matter that may be a trigger or offensive to some including adult language, steamy intimate scenes and violence.

This PNR is the 2nd story in the Tsenturion Masters series. It is about an alien warrior race whose home planet was destroyed leaving them seeking revenge against the perpetrators. They have feared extinction until one of their allies determines that human females are compatible and starts a Tribute program.

While this could probably be read as a stand-alone, I highly recommend reading this in order for maximum reader satisfaction and to prevent spoilers.

This story features elements of BDSM, dominant / submissive partnerships, spanking for pleasure / punishment, consensual / non-consensual acts, abductions and violence between the two alien races.

It is a well-written story with great character development and universe world building. Part of this can be attributed to this being the second story as well as the storyline and personalities of the characters.

There are a lot of emotions dealt with throughout this story, which is not always the case for PNR. I attribute this to Pareena who was dying from stage 4 cancer upon her abduction. She is matched to Bogden, a Tsenturion warrior and 2nd in command, who was scheduled to take a mate when their planet was destroyed. He has been against the Tribute program, so some are not very happy when he receives Pareena into his care.

I don’t want to accidentally provide any spoilers, so I am going to stop here.

100000/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️s!
Dual POVs.
Neither hero(Bogdan) nor heroine(Pereena) are virgins
Insta-attraction/lust.
Lots of steamy smex scenes! 🌶💯
contains: Medium BDSM(canes, paddles, edging), anal, deep throat, dominating male, submissive female, lots of slick, multiple orgasms 😉

MEDIUM ANGST from the get go, all from the Hero’s grieving. This will sting but not enough to give you cardiac arrest. 👍🏻

No active presentation of other woman/man. BUT there is mention of dead lover. (This is what triggers the angst)

Happy ending!

Epilogue: Marta and Arkdhem

Your panties while reading: Genesis 7:17 😏

Heroine is a PhD psychologist who was dying from cancer. She swiped right on her e-reader and was then entered as a tribute bride. First 50% of the story is her thinking it was all the dream, made me giggle.

I knew Bogdan must’ve had a tragic backstory when he was mentioned in book 1!! It explains why he was so against the tribute program.

Love him and his grumpy scowling sexy alien ass 😔❤️

Bogdan shows to be a more dominating male compare to Gavrill. (Hero from book 1) He brings BDSM up a notch. 👀

Would I re-read this again on my free time? Grakk yes!

Bonus: you get book recommendation for other dom male books while reading 😂👌🏼
(Zylon’s Human bride by Sue Lyndon) 👀

I can’t wait for next book!!!! 😫😫

Very interesting reading. I really enjoyed this book, and wouldn’t it just be amazing to be reading an alien book about a really hot alien and some major sexy times, and then all of a sudden be somewhere where the alien actually exists? Are you living your dream or are you living a nightmare. For Pareena it was literally life or death. If she stays on earth she doesn’t have long to live thanks to cancer, she may not be on earth anymore but she’s alive and whole. After some ““ training“ she cannot wait for her life to begin. Bogdan I cannot believe he has been assigned a tribute. Female all his own. Their entire species was wiped out including their planet, and now that their leader has found his tribute, Bogdan found out the next tribute was for him. He knows it would take a special female to handle his type of “ownership“. The two of them work out perfect, but now they have another problem, one that might change the mission as a whole. The tributes are going to be a part of it, because it could affect them. This is a really interesting series, I’ve never read one quite like this. There is really no dull parts in this entire book, so happy reading and happily ever after.

Okay so I just finished book one and needed to read book two. So remember Bogdan, yeah I did not like him much and now he is getting a tribute. He is going to be a master? OH LORD what will happen. Remember Dawn wanting to make changes. Yeah they did make those changes and found Pareena. Well this is funny because she does have submissive qualities and she has an imagination that is for sure. As you know the manuals that the guys were to read explaining what the females would love. HA HA this is funny. Anyways, Bogdan does not want a tribute but will do his duty. However he did not expect to feel for Pareena. He struggles with the past and what could have been and feels like he should not be alive. We do get a little more emotional in this book and the steam is still off the charts. Its funny how Bogdan thinks that he will not get push back from Pareena. She will get to the bottom of the issues and hopefully they can have a happily ever after. So if you want to know what happens, you need to read this. You will not be disappointed.

Love changes all

Love changes all, and jealousy is an evil thing.

It takes a while for Pareena to realize that she isn’t having comatose fantasies…like almost all of the book. Basically, for her, anything she’s loving and enjoying as much as the life she’s living couldn’t possibly be real. Yet, she finally realizes it IS real just at the point when she could lose everything.

As for Bogdan, well, let’s just say that Pareena isn’t anything like what he expected, and his life isn’t ever going to be the same again.

A great follow-up to Alien Captive. I’m interested to see what comes next.

Excellent story. Really loved it!!

Pareena and Bogdan. This was a. Excellent exciting story. The characters have interesting and rich background stories, and the more you read the more you understand about their species and culture. Bogdan had lost his mate in the great destruction. Pareena has cancer and not long to live when the magical E-reader saved her! Beautiful story. Added bonus to the love and romance. Is the steamy hot sex! I hate waiting for the next story but it will be worth it to visit these aliens and their true mates again. And find out how the next alien warrior does with his new human tribute!

A cooperative tribute

Pareena was dying and has no family. She thinks her abduction and all the aliens are a coma dream and not real. This makes her more cooperative and accepting of the changes including her alien master's domination. She thinks it's all just a hot fantasy but as danger looms she's beginning to believe it's real.

This is a great continuation of the series with another strong connection. I was happy to see the hard alien's rough edges softened by his sweet submissive.

The plot thickens!

Second in what so far is a trilogy this book captures that mid paradigm shift kind of revelations. Of course the most stoic warrior gets a Tribute he didn't want. Once he meets the brilliant if disbelieving doctor he starts to soften but there is way more to his shell than is obvious. Once they finally connect there is danger thrown in the mix and we are treated to aforementioned paradigm shift. Deeper than I expected the plot twistier than your average alien romance, thoroughly enjoying this ride.

I liked the set up and how that allowed the heroine to just go with things, but then all characterization was thrown out the window to allow for action and drama. The problem is that the drama didn’t really lead anywhere.

The heroine’s obsession with Harry Potter became annoying. Like, have you ever met anyone whose entire personality revolves about that one thing and they insert into EVERY situation? It starts out cute but quickly starts to grate on the nerves.

Lots of potential that fell flat here.

Even better than book 1

I enjoyed this story more especially as there's more background. Pereena is perfect for Bogdan and was much easier for me to relate to than Tribute Dawn was. I didn't get the Harry Potter references and found them ambiguous and weird though if you're a fan it'd be different. I just loved the twist towards the end although I certainly didn't see it coming.
On to book 3 now although I wish it was someone other than Arkdhem as I don't like how he's behaved but hopefully he will improve
Hopefully he'll improve once his Tribute arrived...

This book had a rather unique way for humans and aliens to meet. Although I tend to skim past the sex scenes if there are more than two of them, the authors did a good job of making them interesting enough for me to keep reading. They also set up an intriguing situation that could result in a possible division among the last of the Tsenturions. I hope they plan to continue the series so I can see how it plays out.
