Dark, kinky, alien craziness.

Ohhh boy did I enjoy this second chance alien menage. Kane wasn't the murderous pirate we think he is and his friend Lan especially stole my heart....but they weren't pushovers either. They may be softies when it comes to Erin, the little human they found, but they are very dominant mates.

This was a quick little read. I believe this is the end of this series, maybe. I loved the second chance aspect....how Kane and Lan were able to find Erin all those years later. Erin's secret was a weird but cute little twist.

Definitely a unique story… and I enjoyed it.

Erin’s a space pirate, or so she thinks, and has been pretending to be a poisonous alien who can’t be touched or else… why? Well, because she’s human and female humans aren’t treated the best 😬. The shop they’ve been pirating at has been invaded by “real” and more ruthless alien pirates 😅 and she tries to hide. And then, she gets caught by Kane

Kane has been a pirate for a while. He and his friend Lan have been living the pirate life and take over a ship. Kane finds his delighted when he encounters a human who’s in disguised. He’s always heard of the female human allure, and he wants to investigate, and investigate he does 👀. But he needs to make sure she’s safe from the other predators/aliens on board. So he asks Lan to watch her…

Lan, the sweeter one of the two, wants to also investigate what all the fuss is about when it comes to female humans. He’s extremely protective as well, and he’s also welcoming and understanding.

When the other mafiosos discover Erin’s human, all goes to hellll… and need to protect her… so they get her off the ship.

Years pass, and we find out that not everything that happens on spaceships stay on spaceships… and this secret comes in the form of a half human/half alien being 👀.

What I liked/loved:
—the exploring scenes 👀. Look. I know. I should appreciate the world building (which I do, I REALLY do), but, my gawd, the exploring scenes were 🥵. These two men love to see what a female human is all about, and they do NOT hold back 🔥. They’re curious about everything a human female has to offer, including that little hidden pleasure point that drives her wild 👀. Seeing Kane and Lan explore her was 😮‍💨💦

—the d love. Ahem… so… with aliens, I’m always… um… interested in how *different* (👀😉) their Ds are… I mean, let’s be real… we wanna know 👀… and boy do these two have some differences 😅. Kane has two of them… plus a VERY strong tail he uses to his advantage 😉, and gargoyle Lan is big… ALLLLL over, and well, he’s hard as stone so 😅. Oh and Kane also has a forked tongue 😉 which Erin REALLY appreciates 🥵

—the 🔥. Well, duh… I mean, I’ve been talking about 🔥 for two bullet points now 🤣. There’s a plot in here somewhere 🤣. But yeah, um… lots of 🥵💦 going on

—CELIBACY 👏🏻. There’s a five year separation and everyone’s celibate 👏🏻. Woooo hoooo!!!

—secret child 👀

—breeeeeding 😉

—the JP moments 😈. Although Kane and Lan are willing to share, they definitely have a few hissy fits when it comes to Erin 🤣. They get jealous 🤣. And then they share and are in a relationship, but the times they get jealous we’re scrumptious 😮‍💨

—BDSM ish. Sometimes Erin really can’t escape them 😅 even when she’s suuuuper sore 💦

—Erin’s son was amazing 🫶. I’d be weird out if my “five” year old is really a LOOOOT older in alien years 😬

—seeing Avery and her writing ❤️. Loved that it’s a common them in the series

—Kane being the more dominant one versus Lan’s softer side was everything ❤️. Plus, they’re both really protective

—the epilogue and bonus epilogue 🥹🫶❤️

What I wanted more of: SPOILERS
—Lan versus Kane. It almost felt like Kane was the main guy. By the end, we feel their equality more, but I wanted more of him sooner

—how did the government know about Brin? I feel like this needed more info or clarity

—I just wanted more 🤣

Overall, I enjoyed this thoroughly ❤️

Avenged was smutty MFM fun that ticked all my alien romance boxes.

“That’s my good little pet,” he says. “Now I shall claim you. I will fill your ass and hot cunt. I will seed you everywhere. I have marked you, have claimed you, and when I come in you fully like this, you will finally be mine.”


description

Kane finds Erin on a ship pretending to be a poisonous being to fly under the radar but he refuses to be tricked. Erin finds herself back in his cabin...thoroughly inspected. When he has to leave for his work shift, his friend Lan takes over and pleasures her body too. Erin has no qualms with letting both a Devlin and half-gargoyle/half-human claim her and neither do they. But everything goes to hell in a handbag and they all part.

Erin ends up on Earth and it's some time before Kane and Lan find her again and she has a little Kane with her. Kane and Lan have been dreaming of Erin and the two of them set out to bring her to their home and make a life. But things aren't easy when they are worlds apart and dark forces want Erin and the little youngling.

This was filthy but also had an engaging plot to even out the alien smut and honestly...I really enjoyed it.

“Our filthy little mate is drenched,” Lan says. “She’s going to need a lot of dick tonight. I can sense it.”


If you like short Sci-fi romance with alien heroes and a feisty woman who never forgot her pirating days, then give this a try!

Two is better than one, but not one giant one, so maybe all are better?

The longest in the trilogy, human Erin is a space pirate aboard a ship that another substantially more formidable pirate crew has recently overtaken. She is discovered and claimed by Kane and Lan, who then set her free to protect her from the captain. Many years have passed, but now she is dreaming of them again…

I thoroughly enjoyed the last book in the set, likely due to its greater length and room for character development. I absolutely love Kane and Lan’s fascination with “inspecting” Erin and her severe need to be disciplined regularly; otherwise, she is not properly controlled. Lan’s tenderness balances Kane’s roughness. Two perfect mates who really know how to use their… appendages…. The s3x scenes are hot, as Ms. Lane does a very thorough job explaining how each unique peen is used.

Erin must hide that she's a human on an alien ship. Protected by Lan, a gargoyle/human and Kane, a furry, double d'cked alien with a tail. She was sent away to be safe but then she disappears from where she was sent and lost to her alien lovers. Erin is now the mother of a human/alien hybrid with a tail and must hide her child from earth's humans who would love to get their hands on the child. Lan and Kane will do whatever they can to protect both Erin and her child. I loved it when Lan visits Erin in her human apartment and her structure can hardly carry Lan's massive size and weight. I could hardly keep up with turning the pages to see what would happen next, it was a great story with a HEA.

Space Pirate…

Kane discovers Erin on a ship that was pirated and is in the process of being scrapped for parts. She’s part of the pirates ships crew and a female human. Kane takes her to his cabin and proceeds to inspect her for her pleasure nubbin that his friend Lan told him about that human women have.
Kane and Lan claim Erin, they decide to help her escape the ship. They give her their savings to help her begin her new life on another planet but after awhile Erin returns to earth. Only she’s not alone. She’s pregnant with Kane’s alien baby.
After a time jump we find Kane and Lan reunited both have been dreaming of Erin, they want to find her and reunite with their claimed mate.

Who wouldn’t want the best of both worlds? Kane the devlin warrior who will protect Erin without fail but also pleasure her with his tail and his extra appendage. Lan her sweet but monstrous 1/2 Gargoyle, 1/2 human hybrid who will squash any who dare harm Erin and Brin her son. He’s also huge, everywhere, but Erin was made for him.

This is a fast paced steamy quickie read with all kinds of tail whipping goodness!

Erin, a has-been pickpocket and want-to-be space pirate finds herself in a bit of a pickle when her ship is taken over by real space pirates. And this is only the start of her adventure.
This is an insta-lust, spice filled romp as only L.V Lane can deliver. It’s a quick read, but the world-build is wonderful, and the story is engaging. Erin, Kane and Lan are all very distinct characters, and I wish we could have spent more time in Lan’s head.
This is the third book in this series, and while it’s not absolutely necessary to read the others, doing so would give you a greater understanding on how Erin ends up where she does. We get to see some cameos from the other books’ characters, which is great.

This book was an interesting read. I’m not one that normally reads alien type books. But I sure enjoyed this one. It definitely took me “out of this world.” L.V. Lane has a way of capturing me with her books. Ever since reading them I have enjoyed the books I have read by her.

Erin the FMC must hide that she is a human while she is abroad an alien ship. She is protected by Lan and Kane and alien who falls in love with her, but she ends up getting lost from her lovers. She ends us with a little child and must hide her child from humans. I loved how protective her alien mates are of her and continue to protect and find her.

Overall, the story was a really great read and I enjoyed where L.V. Lane took the story. It was full of so much and I kept reading until I was finished.

This was one the only alien books I've read. However, LV is amazing and did not disappoint. Human fmc is human in disguise on a pirate ship. When they are captured by worse aliens. Three sexy aliens know what she is and help her escape because human females are prized. 5 years go by they can't find her. Read see if and how they find her. Why she isn't where they sent her. And why she's in danger now. Oh and which alien has two PEENS!

I really enjoyed reading this book. From the moment that I started until the very last page I could not put it down. It moves along at a pace which makes for an easy read, has interesting characters and a story that will not disappoint. This book needs to be on your list of books to read, there is no doubt about it.

What do you get when you mix a street rat, fuzzy black and white alien and a gargoyle? A rollicking tale.

This is not going to be my favorite Liv Lane book. It's beginning jumps straight in leaving out some missing background and it takes time to gather everything together. The story is great and has a twist to it. It gets hotter with every chapter. There may be some triggers for discipline and rough romancing. I definitely recommend this book.

DAMN! That was some freaking sexy, smutty and insanely erotic monster loving! I mean – WOW – my B.O.B. got a really good workout with this story. This was straight up monster loving porn and I loved every delicious second of it.

It was short, fast and utterly filthy.

An engaging plot will draw you and make you want to see them find happiness. Erin was doing well until her life was turned upside down. She has to hide that she's a human on an alien ship. She is protected by Lan (gargoyle/human) and Kane (furry alien). She gets quite the surprise when she gets back to earth. Now she has to keep her and her son safe. I truly enjoyed her relationship with her son and how he has a mature brain, but still needed love like a child his age. I enjoyed when they found her and how they reunited. I highly recommend this fast paced quick read. I received a copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This was fast and dirty, in the best way. I enjoyed reading about Lan and Kane. Their innocence of human women made them endearing. It actually made me giggle when they wanted to “inspect” Erin. I loved the fierceness they shared in wanting to protect her no matter it cost their personal relationship with her. This is a great alien romance and if that is your thing, then I’d definitely recommend this one.

Smuth all the way! 💃🔥
MFM aliens romance with breeding and massive double D or should i say, triple D 😁
This book is light, fun and smut read. I mean, you can't go wrong luvin this book with the little human woman got her V card P destroyed by massive alien D!
Daaang i still feel it in mine! 😂🔥

I still love it although this is not my fav from ms. Lane for how Kane have dominant fun while Lan got it like in the 70% ish??

I feel like there's a major edit that just cut the story and not the supposed to be deleted scene. So yeah, there's some repetitive lines and missing feels for me.

Ms. Lane have her way for telling smut with chemistry between her charachters. But i'm sorry to say its lacking here.

One brownie point for Brin. I love HIM!

I loved how this one have the heroine 2 mates! Kane and Lan we're really so opposite, but really came together to be what Erin needed.
I loved how this book progressed! This series has been a really interesting one to read. I love how each book has such an interesting story to go along with it's romance and it keeps you interested the whole way thru. And this trio was so great to read!

Phhheeww! :D
What a ride! I don't think there's really much L.V. Lane can write at this point that I won't like...haha
As a monster romance, this is great! It's smutty, it's humouristic, it's got a story and I like how characters from books 1 and 2 also cameo in this book and how they all fit together into this universe.

I love how the aliens are quite black and white, this always makes for a giggle and reminds me a bit of Drax in Defenders of the Galaxy, hehe.

I fell in love with Kane and Lan and I loved the feistiness of Erin and how she was not only strong but also very loving. :D

I loved the hot steamy scenes and the fighting scenes were not bad either, though I do wish we would have had some more of them, they were quite short and not enough detail for my liking. :(

This is a fast-paced sci-fy monster romance book, it's a little bit on the dark side, but not really anything heavy. The Author has posted some TW which should be read though if you have any.
The book is stand-alone in the series, but we are visited by the couples from the other two books, so I highly recommend reading them in order, but it's not necessary. :)

All in all, I really liked it and I find this universe very fascinating. The species names for some of the aliens are also quite well thought out and don't at all sound ridiculous.

I highly recommend this book. <3

​​En tant que romance monstre, c'est génial ! C'est cochon, c'est humoristique, il y a une histoire et j'aime la façon dont les personnages des tomes 1 et 2 sont également apparus dans ce livre et comment ils s'intègrent tous dans cet univers.
J'adore la façon dont les extraterrestres sont assez noirs et blancs, cela fait toujours rire.

J'ai adoré les scènes chaudes et torrides et les scènes de combat n'étaient pas mal non plus, même si j'aurais aimé en avoir plus, elles étaient assez courtes et pas assez détaillées à mon goût.

Il s'agit d'un livre d'amour monstre de science-fiction au rythme effréné, c'est un peu du côté obscur, mais pas vraiment quelque chose de lourd. Le livre est autonome dans la série, mais nous recevons la visite des couples des deux autres livres, donc je recommande fortement de les lire dans l'ordre, mais ce n'est pas nécessaire.

Dans l'ensemble, j'ai beaucoup aimé et je trouve cet univers très fascinant. Les noms d'espèces de certains extraterrestres sont également assez bien pensés et ne semblent pas du tout ridicules. Je recommande vivement ce livre.

In the third and final novel of the alien taken series, Miss Lane does not disappoint. Avengned is a fast paced read from the first word, first paragraph.
The reader is drawn in by Erin's story first, then the alien Kane makes his appearance, finally followed by the half gargoyle Lan. Erin is a space pirate, not by choice but by necessity. Kane and Lan by their races that have been cast upon them.
Erin is a tiny human trying to hide on a pirate ship taken captive by the furry and tailed alien Deviln. A warrior cast that is fierce towards its mates as it is fierce towards its conquests. Lan is just the muscle that tags along. Lan is soon found out by Kane and taken for his mate. Much inspection of her by both ensues. Which induditably leads to a great amount of lovemaking. How does either of the aliens’ anatomy fit up with Erin? In a tight but pleasurable fits and starts. This is one novel that will titillate the brain and expand the readers’ imagination. Not one to pass up.

I know I reviewed this book when I got done reading it... but it has totally disappeared off of goodreads and also on Amazon. Something fishy is going on here. 🤨🤨🤨

It kind of makes me mad that it has disappeared. I loved this story and I can't remember what I put in the review and now I have to think of something new to write for the review.

I really loved Erin, Kane, and Lan's story. For awhile I wasn't sure how it was all going to work out. I thought for sure that Kane and Lan were going to end up fighting each other over Erin. They were both so drawn to her at the beginning of this book. Then when they all got separated I really worried about it. At the end I wanted to smack Lan because he took so long to reappear to reunite them all together again.

I loved reading about Brin in this story also. I have so many questions about this little man. I hope L.V. Lane gives Brin his own story. I would love to learn more about him, and also get the chance to see more of the characters in this series by him getting his own story.

The storyline itself was interesting but the why choose was not handled well 😬 one of the heroes doesn’t even get any alone time or “coupling” 👀 with her until like 70% through. Lan felt like an after thought the entire time. Meanwhile Kane was just unlikeable 😂 if I’d had more Lan I would’ve enjoyed this much more than I did.

Having said that each hero was an alien/monster so they had interesting *ahem* members. Which I did enjoy. The world building was weak overall, but it opened in an engaging way with space pirates. Once the heroine went back to earth things got dull. There was too much talking/planning without enough doing.

There is also a 5 year separation between the 3. But I loved that each one was celibate during that time. The pacing was weird though 😬

FAQ:
No OP drama
No third act break up
Surprise child in storyline + pregnancy in epilogue
HFN ending

TLDR;
Not the worst alien romance I’ve read, but it left me wanting a lot. It would’ve been better as a monogamous relationship than why choose.

What’s better than a spicy book with an alien MMC? Of course it’s a spicy book with 2 alien MMC’s 😝

I devoured this book so hard 🖤 I think is my favourite so far of the alien books I’ve read in the series because Kane and Lan are just 🥵

We meet Erin a human living in the alien realm when a bunch of alien pirates turn up and Erin is discovered as a human…… and well humans are very interesting to Alien males 😈

This book gets spicy fast and when Kane decides she is going to be his and he takes out his very interesting male appendage 🍆 let the pleasure commence 🖤

Lan is the opposite of Kane and I love the differences between them especially with Erin in the middle 😍

Fast forward a few years and a few secrets later after the group have all lost contact we find Erin in the human world. The story focuses on the males finding Erin 🖤

Loved the story, loved the spice (the spice was sooooooo hot 🥵 you need to change your knickers when reading… seriously) and I need my own aliens to be in the middle of that alien sandwich 😝

If you're into monster romance with tail whipping goodness, gargoyles, fantasy writing authors, and their grumpy counterparts, and a story that will be seared into your mind I've got ya covered with a recommendation! I liked that this was unique and not like L.V.'s other stories. I love that she steps out of her box to create these space pirates with all their many descriptions and actions/motivations.

For this tiny poisonous human, she had a heck of a time... two mates and one little boy later with a little on the way? I'd say she may have worked hard for that happily ever after but it was totally worth it. L.V writes the best alpha male characters who go all growly when their mates are in danger. Hmm... if only real life boyfriends could be so awesome.

We meet Erin on a spaceship, that used to  be her home, however has now been boarded by space pirates and is being scrapped.  Being human, Erin is prized for sexual pleasure, so she is trying to hide out when we meet her.

When spotted by Kane, an alien with ahem, 2 appendages! She is take to his cabin for inspection and smexy times ensue.  Kanes friend Lan, a half human/gargoyle is also smitten with Erin. Together they protect her and help her escape. 

Forward a few years and the story picks up again when Kane and Lan reunite to find Erin.

Lots of insta attraction, claiming, punishment, protection.  Fast paced and well written.
