Review: Title is a bit confusing - but good sci-fi read

I purchased this book thinking it was the entire series - I was wrong and did not read the descriptions properly apparently.After reading it, when I checked the author's backlist I found two other books that are not connected (I don't think) but are clearly stories of the Arcadian world in the present - 2013.  I liked this story a lot, however it is a ménage book so, if that offends you, I wouldn't read it.The time is 3013 and the earth is rebuilding after an attack by an alien species that attacks planets, kills the entire population and depletes all the natural resources. With the help of the Dragon Warriors from Arcadia, they were defeated and now the world is aware of other species.Alexis is a liaison officer for the elite military service, she works with aliens who visit and makes sure that all their needs are met. Alexis is a female who is not able to have children, after the alien invasion many women are infertile because of an infection spread by the aliens. She has become a officer in the elite so that she can be of value to her world. When she is assigned to lead four Dragon Warriors from Arcadia, she is justifiably upset because that is not a job that is usually given to women.Before changes can be made the warriors arrive and it is too late to make changes. They are two sets of twin brother who are bonded, when they see Alexis they realize she is their mate.The usual confusion ensues but the story moves along very quickly and the explanation of multiple mates is provided in a reasonable manner. Alexis has a background story that impacts the situation in a minor way. All the action happens on earth and while the warriors talk about Arcadia, there is no description - they have chosen to travel from planet to planet and actually spend very little time on their home planet.While that was not a disappointment, it was definitely a different way to world build. I liked this.
