I’ve been abducted. Twice. My situation with this new group of aliens has gone from bad to worse. I was with a bunch of elf-like aliens who had unparalleled technology, but now I’m in the midst of a group of primitive gargoyle aliens running around in loincloths. Which doesn’t hide much, let me tell you. There’s one gargoyle in particular who watches my every move, but what’s under his loincloth scares me more than his beastly appearance. To be sure we’re worthy to breed with, the savages have us each perform a rite of passage. And by that I mean a test of survival.

One minute, I'm working as a cook, the next, I've been abducted by robocops and sent to a distant planet where I'm attacked by a ferocious beast. Then a seven-foot-tall, blue-skinned alien rescues me with crystal spears slashing. He cuddles me in his arms, and I feel safe for the first time since fleeing my stalker ex. Until he tosses me over his shoulder and takes me back to his clan where he announces I'm his new bride. I'm determined to return home, but there's something about Aizor I can't resist. Am I falling for this musclebound alien with a killer smile?

Work sucks. That’s just a fact. And to make it worse, my boss it a total a-hole. But it turns out he’s not just your everyday run-of-the-mill jerk. Nope, he’s also a killer - and not at all human. Now, my late-night overtime assignment has left me caught in the middle of some galactic war. My only escape is a bigger, badder alien, who they call "The Beast".

If we transport livestock over the roads today, could it be possible that aliens did too when we humans were in our Wild West period of development? What if it were true, and one alien cargo ship broke down around Earth, suffered a malfunction, and a weird animal creature catapulted to Earth in a broken containment cell? Now imagine it was found by the most contradictory of outlaws in the West, with a shady past and a wicked sense of personality yearning for redemption. Now pretend the aliens are forbidden to enter Earth, to retrieve the animal, because of a law in the galaxy.
