Blurb/Summary:

I never wanted to sell my blood for money. But that’s what I end up doing after an alien merchant abducts me and dumps me on O’nagga Nine. When I run into Baron Vik’tor and he takes a liking to me, it seems like my luck has turned. But the Baron is a powerful man and there are people in his life that want me dead. Will I survive being The Baron’s Bride?

Natalie Hale hates her life. You would too if an alien merchant abducted you and then dumped you on a distant planet where it’s so cold even the buildings and infrastructure are made of ice. To survive, Natalie has to sell her blood, which is the only commodity she has. Because the inhabitants of O’nagga Nine, where she’s living, need blood to survive, she manages to make a meager living. But she’s barely scraping by until she literally runs into the Baron.

Baron Vik’tor is the richest, most influential man on the planet. He’s also a half-breed—a Naggian/Braxian mix which means he has curling horns, blue tattoos, and a wicked temper whenever he thinks the woman he cares for is threatened. And it just so happens, he cares for Natalie.

But Natalie’s personal Pretty Woman scenario can’t last long. The Baron is a powerful man and there are people in his life that don’t like her having influence on him. Some will even stop at nothing to kill her. Can Natalie survive being The Baron’s Bride? You’ll have to read to find out.

Author's Note--This is book 6 in the Alien Mate Index series but it can be read as a stand alone book, though you might enjoy it more if you read books 1-5 first.

Review:

Readers first met Natalie in The Overlord’s Pet, and now we get to find out what happened to her after she is dumped on O’nagga Nine. This story is a great addition to the series.

Vik’tor is the richest businessman on O’nagga Nine and he takes an instant liking to Natalie. Natalie is wary but grateful to not be freezing and starving. Their attraction and chemistry together are like a runaway train, and their journey is fraught with dangerous obstacles. Natalie and Vik’tor’s relationship grew stronger with each obstacle they circumvented.

The Baron’s Bride brings in some past characters from other Alien Mate Index books. This story sews up most of the loose ends, character’s futures and of course Evangeline Anderson leaves us with a happily-for-now ending. Evangeline Anderson left a way to come back and play in this series.

I received an ARC for an honest review.

Blurb/Summary:

Rylee Hale is having a hard time. As a new business owner just starting out on her own, she’s struggling to attract new clients to her paralegal business.
Then she attracts two that are way more than she can handle.

Drace and Lucian are Denarins—a race of the Twelve Peoples where two males bond together in order to join with a single female. An Alpha and a Beta make the perfect pair to attract and care for a woman in every detail of her life.

But what happens when two Alphas get wrongfully bonded? That’s the dilemma Lucian and Drace are in and only a Pure One from Earth can help them. When they see Rylee helping a couple with their divorce in the AMI viewscreen, they decide she’s exactly the female they need to break the bond between them.

Nobody asked Rylee what she thought about being abducted from her life on Earth and caught in the middle of a conflict between two huge, muscular alien males. It's okay thought--she’s a smart girl—she can handle herself. But once she gets a taste of being bonded to two sexy men who want to please her in every way, will she be able to stand by and watch them be…Severed?

Review:

This is one smoking hot alien romance book!  Severed is book four in the Alien Mate Index series.  Readers were treated to a glimpse of Lucian and Drace in Book 3 letting us know their story was coming.  It was worth the wait. 

Drace and Lucian are two alpha males that accidentally get psychically bonded.  Males on their planet do bond naturally, but only an alpha and a beta.  Two alphas bonding is unheard of and “wrong” on their planet.  The only solution Drace and Lucian can fathom is breaking the bond and going their separate ways.  They have to travel to Earth to find just the right person to break their bond.

Rylee has had a long day and even longer night by the time Drace and Lucian enter the picture.  They abduct Rylee to save her, but to her it’s all a dream until she wakes up on their spaceship.  After some negotiation, Rylee agrees to help Drace and Lucian do what ever it takes to break their bond.

Their journey is fraught with danger, eminent death, and prejudices that threaten to tear them all to pieces.  Along the way somehow they learn to work as a team.  Rylee falls deeply in love with both men and Drace and Lucian treat her as a special treasure.  The problem that remains throughout the whole story is the bond between the two men.  Will they be able to sever the bond?  Will they be able to walk away from each other and Rylee?

Severed is filled with action, adventure, a few plot twists, and plenty of romance.  As a reader, Rylee, Drace, and Lucian are characters that will stay with you for a while.  They are easy to connect to and even easier to like.  Rylee, Drace, and Lucian’s romance is scorching hot and this book will have you on edge as their story unfolds.  Along the way we are introduced to several new characters and some older characters pop in from previous books.  I thought the story ended a little abruptly so I hope that we will see more of all of these characters in future books. 

I highly recommend not missing Severed: Alien Mate Index Book 4 whether you are following the series or not this is an entertaining story.
