Review: not much sci-fi

Not sure how I feel about this story. Earth has been invaded. There is little told about how this all came about. Our story begins at the end of the war.  Sergeant Major Laney Bradford is given to General Alrik Torfa, a Delroi leader, in exchange for a peace agreement with Earth-no invasion. So, our female heroine, strong and in charge of Earth's defense, becomes mate to the enemy. Now, if the story progressed with some real conflict between the 2 lead characters, then this story might have had more impact. But, almost from the the beginning of the story, Laney is not only attracted to but sleeping with the. General, with little fight or discension. So where's the conflict? Also, except for some advanced technology, not really discussed, and the mating connection, the Delroi are not really much different from humans. So, again, where is the sci- fi?Don't like stories that take a strong female character and make her a ninny. I mean, she covers her head with the bed sheet when she doesn't know what to do, twice! And she continually let's him man-handle her! So much for our soldier. This story could have offered so much more. I will not read anymore books in the series.
