I enjoyed SOLDIER MINE  - The characters, the plot, the world building - All written in an interesting story line.  Kresian, a soldier, and Vohne, a Thresl are compelling as individuals and even better when mated.  I enjoyed so many parts to this story I went ahead and read the second one, PRINCE CLAIMED.  It was great reading the continuing cast of characters, watching Kres and Vohne grow and mature into their bond.  Prince Beline gets his third mate in this second book and the planet problems with Thresl being bartered and misused is continued.While I enjoyed this first and second book in this series, the remaining ones are filler.  How convenient is it to have a Duke injured and his mate is there to treat him? (medic)  Some of the pairs were just too pat.  They were more filled with sex instead of substance to continue the story.  SAINT RETURNS was the worst in that respect - A bit of story with tons of sex.So while I enjoyed the first two books in this series, the rest don't live up to the same standard.  It's sad when a series continues way past it's prime. - Dan's Wife
