Cryo Crisis #2
Rescued by the Warrior
Librarian's Note: An alternate title and cover for this ASIN can be found here.
Anna is in hell.
She spent her whole life being meek and humble and where did that get her? Trapped with her own personal Incubus. She fled from one demon and his human servant only to fall into the clutches of another and the way he looks at her makes her toes curl and her heart race.
She is already in hell, there is no salvation for her.
Piety won’t get her anywhere.
Disclaimer: This book has a lot of adult language, steamy knotty romance, and a healthy dose of consent, communication, and respect. It also shows irreverence towards religions that promote unhappy plural marriages. If you are offended by manacles, cults, alien physiology, or women screaming yes repeatedly, well maybe you should read this little story and get over that.

I like tea.
Yoga is life, meditation is therapy, and a birdfeeder right outside the window is the meaning to life, the universe, and everything.

The first book pulled me in and this book spit me out, the storyline wasn’t there and just didn’t follow the same suit. I hated the fanatic female character and honestly the story dragged. This is where I stop with this series

Kidnapping with consent, take 2
Anna is having a bad night. Tied to a stake after witnessing a demon lure a human female into sin, watching another human and demon escape, and now picked up and brought into a cage by another demon yet. That's an awful lot of demons for a good girl to have witnessed, whether she's in Hell or not. And to that, why is she even in Hell? See aforementioned good girl title.
Spoilers ahead.
Anna was the woman released from the stake at the end of the first book. Rude to the ones who freed her she ran but apparently came across another demon wandering about. Aren't they supposed to be in the cages, too? Still not exactly sure when the women were put in tubes. Some time after space travel, but still recent enough that religion had a ridiculously strong foothold. No mention of any other races than these humans (all speaking English) and the Shek. Some misunderstanding brought about a war, then a genetic war, and apparently stranded the ship carrying the women in tubes and the religious humans who are the offspring of the ones in the war. Not sure why the altered humans don't want the other women back, but at least the Shek are all about clear and sober consent. Anna doesn't have as clear of boundaries as Ripley (yes, another name of human cinema infamy), and not only instigates a few encounters, but while Ripley is trying to keep his hands to himself Anna has decided to see what exactly he's working with. Anna lies, prevaricates, and manipulates Ripley. Both of them seem very young, too. Did Anna come from a convent? There are still too many unanswered questions and no world building. The next book is based on a woman who didn't want to be found being ratted out by her fellow human, finding a brownie laced with a potent aphrodisiac, and after listening to the human who betrayed her having sex for hours on end, falls on the alien told to fetch her. I think I'm calling it quits here. I still applaud the consent, but it's conditional on them integrating into the Shek society as breeders. Well, no one has actually tested that, but they're only rescuing the unaltered humans females. Apparently the altered will be left to be abused and bred by the religious wing nuts. Why not see if it can be reversed? Why, if there are enough Shek women that Rambo can indulge, aren't there more pairings? Are they not worthy because they're sterilized by the wars? Eh. Like I said, consent, but conditions. And with no other look into their culture, what do the human women have to look forward to besides childbirth? No careers? What if they don't want kids, don't want to be surrogates (for those that don't want to raise kids, aren't heterosexual, were sterile before tubing, or whatever the reason)? Fluff? Ok, sure. As fluff it isn't bad. It's quick, there's an HEA, it lays the groundwork for the next, it features consent.
Same editing issues as before- no commas for address, swapped words.

Anna, from the previous story, awakened in Hell...
The problem isn't that Anna believes in Heaven and Hell. However, being awakened from a cryopod she doesn't remember getting into by fanatics spouting rhetoric about hell, eternal damnation, demons, and all her worst fears makes it easy to believe she's died and gone to the wrong final destination.
Ripley is an Alien, unless you are a fanatic in which case you can call him a demon. Let's not judge him by his actions... it's so much easier to believe the fanatics torturing everyone... until Ripley breaks through and gets Anna to see that one woman's hell is another Allen's prison camp.
So far, this series has a fun sense of humor, is gradually giving out more information to help explain what led up to these events, the world building is interesting and the Shek (the Aliens) are fantastic leading men.

Enjoyable!
This is the second book in the series and I enjoyed it even more than the first one. Not that the first one was bad, but it seems that the author gained her stride. Anna is a little hard to take at first, you get her full story eventually and then you will say Ooooohhh, like I did. Poor thing. I also love the names of these warriors! They're great!

The FMC was an indoctrinated, brainwashed religious cult freak who had to be talked into unlocking the cage another human was in.

A short, fast but enjoyable read
This story moved fast with Ripley finding Anna and trying to make a bond. There was some excitement with the fighting scenes and even better, were the love scenes! Lots of detail, graphically carnal but sweet at the same timel
