Freeing Luka by Victoria Aveline

 












2 Star

Luka is sent in to find out about any secret labs being used for researching the fertility issues his people is having. Instead of finding them and getting out he’s captured and forced to participate in them. Alice is coerced into pleasing Luka until they can escape. When they finally get out Luka still wants Alice but thinks she doesn’t want him and is traumatized but she’s his chosen mate. Will he find a way into her heart?

Where I liked the first book in the series, I hated this one soooo much. Alice was just horrible. She never once stopped to think about the fact that she was on another planet with different rules and behaviors. Maybe just maybe the reason Luka was acting the way he was that offended her so much was the norm on the planet. She kept him waiting and waiting and just made him so miserable because he was trying to please her even if it went against everything he knew. I will still try out the next one but this one will not be revisited ever.

Choosing Theo by Victoria Aveline

 











3 Star

Jade isn't sure what she's going to do. She's been kidnapped by aliens and dropped on a random island where she's now expected to mate with someone on their island never to head home again. She meets several men and non work for her until she meets the stoic Theo. Theo is scarred per his people's beliefs and he's sure this choosing isn't going to be any different then the last with him being rejected. When he is selected he's sure it is some kind of set up and is determined to discover what Jade is up to. Will they find their happily ever after?

I enjoyed this one. I like space romances and this ticked all the boxes for me. I loved the miscommunications between Jade and Theo. When Theo gets his comeuppance I laughed. He tried to use his dog to get rid of her and is shocked when she loves the dog. Overall, it was a good start to a series and I can't wait to read the rest of them.
