Publisher's summary

Like being stranded on a desert alien planet wasn't enough....

All I ever wanted was someone to love. Now my best friend is knocked up by the only hunky alien-dragon available and I can't tell anyone how totally jealous I am. The handful of humans who survived our ship's crash are locked in a struggle to live in sweltering heat with dwindling supplies.

The others are taking the life giving, addictive epis but if I take it that means I'm stuck here. Forever. Which also means the chance of being rescued by a knight in shining armor would be zero.

If that weren't enough, I go and get myself kidnapped and he's another big, sexy, alien-dragon warrior.

Contains mature themes.

Ok

The book wasn’t as good as the first but was still a nice piece of fluff. The third book I won’t be getting as it is about amara who is an intolerant bitch. Not funny bitchy just nasty. If any more of the series shows up I’ll probably give it a whirl

Great listen!!

This is the second book in the series and it is a great addition. What happens when you put a feisty human and a dragon like alien together? Lots of misunderstandings and some super steamy scenes. Throw in a lot of drama and evil 😈 slave traders to make this book well rounded and totally worth the listen. Jillian Macie and Tristan James make the characters come alive.

Delicious Fun!

I accidentally picked up the second book, but I didn't feel lost, so that was great! Let's just start this off by saying I really enjoyed the book, and Miranda will be added to my TBR. I agree with others, if you enjoyed Ice Planet Barbarians, you will most likely enjoy this series.

Was Jolie a bit too gung ho about marching into danger? Maybe, but I enjoyed her confidence and willingness to back up her man. An insta-love story with a lot of action and intrigue. This was a well-developed story line and the characters felt real. There were moments you wanted to strangle them and moment where you cheered them on. I enjoyed the Star Trek, Star Wars, and Lord of the Rings references as a fellow nerd.

I enjoyed the ending. We have some more stories coming!

The heroine: Jolie - she was a member of the research vessel that crashed on the desert planet and best friend to Calista from Dragon’s Baby. She had always wanted to find love and be swept off her feet by a handsome man, and was a bit jealous of her friend who got what she thought was the only available dragon on the planet.

The Hero: Sverre - He is a zmaj, a dragon on the planet Tajss. He has his own territory and doesn’t live in the same abandoned city as Ladon from Dragon’s Baby. He had initially argued that they should stay together, but each became territorial and the fight for treasure had separated them, so now each of them has their own territory. However, he crosses into Ladon’s territory because he wants to see what crashed on his planet.

The Story: The zmaj are kind of half dragon half human. They have dragon wings on their bodies but can’t really fly so much as float from high places or lift off the ground a bit. They also have scaled reptilian like skin and humanoid faces. They are adapted for the heat on the desert planet and are great hunters which is good because there are a lot of dangerous creatures on the planet.

Jolie is alone one day, trying to turn on the dome when she is attacked by creatures. She is knocked out when Sverre, who has been watching her, comes to her rescue. Jolie hadn’t yet taken any of the Epis which is a plant that grows on the planet and changes humans on a cellular level to be able to handle the desert environment. Though once changed, the human is addicted and can never leave the planet because they need the Epis. She still hoped to one day be rescued and wanted to leave.

This book was told in dual points of view by a dual narration. It and was narrated by Tristan James and Jillian Macie. Both are very good narrators and are great at displaying emotion through their voices. The story was quite different than the first one and there were new dangers on the planet, including some aliens that were once at war with the zmaj when their species was decimated.

Great fun story!

I enjoyed this second book in this series very much. It’s helpful to listen to the first book first in order to get the setting and backstory. The heroine is feeling troubled by knowing she will have to make a decision about taking the Epis soon. She had dreams of a man and family of her own, but the men that she is stranded with on the planet do nothing for her. One evening she goes for a walk alone outside the city. As she’s strolling through the sand she becomes overwhelmed and attacked by some of the planets carnivores. Saved by a local man, she is taken back to his home and tended until she wakes up. The attraction between them is instant, but they can’t speak each other’s language. On the way to the city, they come across some dangerous beings and detour the long way. Can the humans accept another native into their society? Will the heroine decide to stay with him and take the epis to survive? Meanwhile the human surviving men are starting to get territorial! Narration was well done.

so good

i so want more this is a sweet series. i hope you updated all 15 books on here. if it wasn't for the romance collection. i don't think i would have read the books but like my Susi Hawke all probably end up purchasing the series because all get to read on unlimted first so thank you.
not cool with your permission human should be landons. permission.

Another amazing one

I loved it and can’t wait to listen to them all. The narrators are amazing love how they pull you into the storyline with the characters.

Alien Mind meets Human Character: awesome

One of my favourite alien romance series, that clearly differs from the usual plots floating around. Great world building with a unique non human psychological profile of the alien species, that develops throughout the series. Lots of unexpected plots with a storyline that keeps you on the edge. Great Romance and steamy sex too. Fluent story flow and great narration.

Not as good as the first book which was mediocre

The first book had promise but fell flat in a few places. This book just got worse. The junior high school language and drama was overdone. There wasn't really much chemistry, it seems like they just all of a sudden jumped into bed together. Then the overdramatic conversations. UGH. He says this will bring back bad memories, she pushes and says how bad can it be? Then when he starts reliving the nightmare, she seems surprised. DUH.

I didn't like the female narrator in the first book and this was just as bad. Just raising your voice or pausing is not dramatic effect. The male narrator was much better.

WTF's up with these TSTL females??

**** AUDIBLE PLEASE POST MY REVIEW *****

First of all, why the hell didn't the DUMBASS female from book 1 (Carrissa?) teach them how to download the dragons language??? Did she want to be the only one able to communicate with the dragons/ her dragon?? Second, why didn't they demand to learn it?? Third, WHY THE HELL did Jolie deny the only thing that would save her stupid ass? Fourth, why did she masturbate IN FRONT of that man, CALL HIS NAME, and then get embarrassed and hurry up and turn around and fix her clothes when he turned around to see what it was she wanted when she called his name!??!..... I mean, for the love of God, of course he's going to hear you STUPID! Then he's going to smell your stupid ass on top of that! But you want to act like you are afraid of him.... Well then, how about you DON'T pull your pants down and touch yourself when he's in the same damn room?!? Fifth, why the hell do you STUPID ASS FEMALES decide to go on the hunt, REFUSE to stay in safety when they know good and damn well they CANNOT FIGHT, they CANNOT USE WEAPONS, they have NO way of HELPING or PROTECTING THEMSELVES and they will be a LIABILITY in this hunt?!! The man almost got himself KILLED trying to make sure her STUPID ASS didn't die?! ALL BECAUSE SHE R-E-F-U-S-E-D to stay her ass home ! I was hoping she got buried under that damn sand!! It pissed me off how after she was the cause of all of his injuries they tried to make her seem like she did something great by saving him when she DID NOT!!!! All she did was rub sav on his wounds that SHE CAUSED! There are so many inconsistencies and just plain wrong things that happen in this book that I CAN'T even mention them all!! The story is NOT RELATEABLE and I DIDN'T CONNECT with ANY of these characters in this book so I find myself NOT CARING whether they LIVED or DIED ESPECIALLY !!!!The narrator, how she got a job in the first place is beyond me!! That accent!!! That "oh my God" white girl accent "like gag me with a spoon" accent that she uses is BEYOND RIDICULOUS !!! I cannot stand it! The male narrator is much better in this book. I'm not sure if he's new or if he just realized how stupid he sounded in the first book and changed it! STUPID is the WORD OF THE DAY! There is no other way I can explain my feelings toward this book! PLEASE PLEASE DON'T buy this book! It is a WASTE of your CREDIT your MONEY your TIME!!!I have been giving this author a chance simply because this ITS FREE, but it's SO BAD now that it's REALLY REALLY HARD to finish! If I can give this book ZERO Stars or NEGATIVE STARS I WOULD HAVE given this book a NEGATIVE 5 on the scale!!!! It is truly one of the WORST books I've ever had to DISPLEASURE of reading/ listening to!
