Review: Great premise, can't wait for the next book

**I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.**I have two issues with this book...first, and least important because I am reading an ARC, are the grammatical issues. I hope that these will be corrected before the book is released. The second is how it ended...talk about cliff hanger although agree that if you were going to have one, this was the perfect place for it. I just hate to wait!What I liked is the concept (in that it was different). That an alien, but not so alien, race comes to Earth because they do not have any females to procreate and seek a partnership whereby they will help humans with cures to diseases like cancer in exchange for harvesting womens eggs in an attempt to save their race. The Eslites genetic make up is very similar to humans, except they are a bit more advanced. I was pulled in rather quickly because things were not as simple as it seemed. As Miranda learns, the Eslites are not quite following the agreement outlined to the government and girls are dying or being kept longer than the agreed upon terms. She herself is threatened and decides to try to seek her father's and other important government officials help in changing the current agreement. However, things don't go exactly as planned and she'll find herself risking her life to save the girls.So far, so good and I am looking forward to the next book in the series.
