Review: What happens to Jessica's sister Lindsey? Much better story than the free intro implies
Rating: 4 out of 5

This is a rare event for me, in that I disliked the free intro sample yet greatly enjoyed the book. The free intro framed the lady (L--) & men's first encounter as, well, prostitution. On practically the next page, the guys say that they don't see the situation that way, and they certainly don't treat her that way. A better summary would be that both parties are in desperate & depressing situations, and turn to each other for sexual release from stress. The three guys agree to rescue L-- and her parents, That rescue is an action packed series of events, because their space ship is in such bad shape. Over the course of travels, they fall in love & get married. Thing is, L-- doesn't tell her guys that she is their emperor's sister, and that has repercussions.I enjoyed this book for several reasons. One was that we get to find out what happens to L--, which I had wondered when reading Jessica's book. Second is that her guys aren't the most powerful people ever, like the other books' guys appear to be. Third is that there are some issues within the clan that get worked out--nothing too stressful, but the sort of conflict that improves a book. Fourth, there  is less anti-religious and sexual hang-ups whining than earlier novels in this series. Thank goodness!My objections are that yet another of the author's leading ladies is turned on by being spanked So predictable. Can't she occasionally have one that is willing to do this for her guys but despite disliking? Or one set of guys who isn't in to that? Well, not in this book.Still worth the money. L--'s story continues in the author's book of short stories, "Alien Interludes".
