Okay, so I know this is never my genre. I love I/R romances but you know how sometimes you read a blurb for a random book and it stays with you? Well, that is the story of "Claimed (Brides of the Kindred)". Baird is an alien race of warriors called the Beast Kindred. After being tortured the only thing that keep him going is thoughts (dream sharing) of Olivia Waterhouse (Liv)on planet earth. Once he escapes he arrives to "claim" her, but Liv has jus graduated from nursing school and looking to start her life. Although the sexual attration is there, Liv doesn't want to leave her career, her twin sister(Sophia), or her life on Earth. Baird wants to start his life with her in every way. Now Baird has 4 weeks to prove to her that they belong together and each week they get a little bit closer to "bonding." Can Liv resist?Personally, as I said, I wasn't looking for this book but I am a stubborn women as Olivia and although I wanted her to be with Baird I realized all she would be losing. I saw both sides. I don't want to spoil the ending but I will say ....Love wins. The imagery was great! I invisioned everything from the "bathmat" to the "teddy bear." I wish all couples could have the four weeks of bonding because it might make for happier marriages.I look forward to reading this whole series when it comes out. I know there is a story for Sylvan and Sophia. Although this is not Interracial it is Intergalactic!
