Cynthia Sax entertains with her erotic science-fiction romance, Warlord's Bounty. Khan, a strong and dominant warrior, tries to protect his people from Tolui, a kidnapper of women and children. He is even willing to use, the bounty hunter Zeta, for whom he has intense sexual feelings. Zeta, an extremely lonely orphan, plans on catching the warrior that stirs a desire in her that she has never felt before. There is quite a spark between these two characters; their sex scenes are hot and riveting Unfortunately, I never felt that these two characters were falling in love with each other. Khan's comments about the bonding didn't sit well with me, as I wondered if Zeta's feelings were truly her own. Furthermore, I was truly unnerved that Zeta never asks for the meaning of Khan's pet name for her, a word from his native language.Although I did enjoy the author's writing style and found her battle/actions scenes engrossing, I never believed that the feelings between Khan and Zeta were real. Perhaps if the bonding and pet name issues had been resolved, I would have found the conclusion more satisfactory. Even though I was disappointed with certain elements of this story, I would still read another book by this author.I received an eBook copy from the publisher for purpose of an honest review for The Jeep Diva. I was not compensated for this review, and all conclusions are my own responsibility.
