Summary

From their first encounter, she knew he was trouble.

A top operative in her field, Elise was trained since youth to be one of Earth's most elite soldiers. But nothing could prepare her for Tyrminus and the deadly aliens taking over the city. She is given one job: Find the Grayhart team of explorers that have disappeared within the undercity and bring them back alive, a seemingly impossible mission. There is one rule: Stay away from the alien bounty hunters, especially their terrifying and hypnotic leader, Nezka, who has been assigned to hunt down the mysterious criminal overlord now ruling the undercity. As much as Elise would gladly abide by that rule, fate had other plans.

Now, Nezka is her only hope of surviving. Despite how wicked and dangerous he may seem, the ruthless hunter claims he will aid her in the fight to save the others and escape the city. Because protecting her suddenly seems his top priority. But Nezka carries dark secrets, including a separate mission that could destroy the growing bond between them.

Can she trust him? Or will he be her end?

Great story

Surprisingly very good. Not like most romance novels. I didn't roll my eyes once. ♡

Epic!!

I love this author, I’ve listened to quite a few of her books, and this is possibly my favourite so far. Lots of violence and gore, with a good dose of raunchiness, not one for sensitive souls.

A rollercoaster of a story, fast paced, with many twists. Very well written, lots of detail, and the female character strong and likeable, with the male character being everything I’ve come to expect from this author’s leading men.

I preferred the female narrator on this one, and would have been quite happy for her to narrate the entire book, as she did the majority of it anyway.

Really GOOD sci-fi

So far I've listened to all of Olivia Riley's sci-fi romance, except for Dark World Mates Book 2, which I had started a couple of years ago and somehow got bored and confused along the way; though I am now willing to give it another try.
The world building is solid, the story interesting and the characters are well-written and believable. Nothing too surprising ever happens and we know we'll get our happy everafter ending. Tralala!
I very much like her female MCs because they're pretty intelligent and resilient. I love the slow burn rhythm of her romantic build-up, with characters learning to know, trust, appreciate each other and eventually fall in love.
What I would enjoy seeing now is perhaps a female MC who is as tough and badass as her male counterpart; someone with a bit less polished morals, with more flaws and pretty badass, because I am growing a bit tired of the almost systematic trope of a good girl who is morally superior to the male MC where guy saves girl and is willing to sacrifice himself in the name of love. Something a bit grittier could be just as entertaining!
Nevertheless, thanks Olivia Riley for sharing your talent as a writer and keep it coming !!
