About this listen

He's not like anything Lana has ever encountered.

Asset X: Massive, deadly, and a little terrifying to say the least. A devilish warrior, and a killer. Captured on a hellish world after attacking a military campsite and now imprisoned in a state-of-the-art cell inside one of the military’s top bases, Lazris. Lana has been assigned to "study" him; to learn his secrets and gain his trust, if he is ever allowed to set foot out of his cell. As a top behaviorist, it is the biggest hurdle of her career.

Asset X - or Xerus as he is called - won't give up his secrets easily. He is difficult, elusive, and dare she say, unfathomably alluring...despite his seething demeanor and hard, frightening physique. Something subconsciously draws her to him. Something wildly irresistible. Even if his wicked smile and needful gaze could just be a ploy to win her trust and escape his cell. She shouldn't think of him like that. He is an alien after all. And possibly their enemy.

Xerus claims he is on a mission. A mission to destroy. And he cannot afford to fail. If he dares let Lana get close, dares open his cold heart to her, she could compromise everything.

This book contains heated intimate scenes and some violence. It is intended for mature listeners.

The heroine was slightly annoying as certain events were obvious but overall a good read for anyone that loves a bad dragon.

steamy and exciting

This was my first time listening to this narrator and she is already one of my absolute favourites. She did such an amazing job and I was hooked from the beginning. I listened to this audio in two days (would have easily be one if I didn't need my sleep lol) anyway, great voice acting! The romance was a slow-burn one and not one of those Insta-Loves, which I was so pleased about. It made it easier and more natural for them to fall for each other, along with character development. I felt so immersed that I was sad it ended so soon <3 but at the same time I'm glad it wasn't dragged on.

Brilliant

Maxine Mitchell brought this engaging story to life in the most amazing ways. Perfectly speaking all of the characters and accents. Never thought I could imagine an inter-species love story, but, now I’m a believer. I fell in love with Xerus, too, and was charmed by his and Lana’s evolving relationship. The steam was awesome! And the story was brilliantly written in its own right and not just a vehicle for the steamy elements. Not that I’m against that, but this story really held its own in the non-romantic parts as well as carrying the romance further throughout. Excellent listen! You’ll be hooked!

Brilliant, fast paced, engaging, edge-of-seat story perfectly narrated!

I did not expect to enjoy this story but I did.
The main male character was very impressive then in Chapter 29 when he was being tortured I had to skip to Chapter 30 because I couldn't bear it.

The narrator was great.

An unexpected pleasure.
