I gotta say, I was nicey surprised by this book, I have a weakness for sci/fi, especially those that contains stories about Aliens. Yum. This one though also had erotica in it, I was kinda afraid that the erotic would take over the story, yet it didn't, the surprising twist about this book was it contained a good deal of humor. I laughed so many times in this book, it sure was an enjoyable read.Hallie, is a very strong individual, she is smart, clever and with a cunning mind, she makes an escape plan to avoid being 'grabbed' by the alien who choose her, if she makes it into the safe zone she will be a free woman, then she can meet up with her sister in the colonies. (we are on a different planet, than earth).but she does not make it very far, Vicious (yes, you read correctly, some jerk actually named a little boy Vicious, like wtf?) is hot on her heels, pursuing her through the woods, and just when she is close to freedom, he catches her and puts a collar around her neck, showing his 'right' to her.Hallie, and Vicious are two well written characters, I have a soft spot in my heart for Vicious, despite his cruel name, he shows such gentleness in the book for Hallie, and tries to make her life a bit easier, he tries to show Hallie he understands her situation, that it's not easy for her but he will do his best to protect her and take care of her, and later on love her. Yes, isn\t he just an adorable puppy? I eriosuly wouldn't mind being 'grabbed' if, who I ended up with was like Vicious. The way he is not afraid to show his emotional and vunerable side, sigh, he sure knows the way to a girls heart.Then there is Hallie, trying to adjust to her new surroundings and her new life. She now 'belongs' to Vicious, in a way she is his wife now, she is on board a spaceship, where they will now live, and right when she gets the hang of everything, life throws her a curveball, and everything goes down the toilet and complications rises too soon, that threathens the relationship she has with Vicious.Overall, this book was a fun, intense, enjoyable, with amazing and sweet chemistry between the two main characters, I really liked how their relationship developed.Recommended, if your in the mood for a really good sci-fi/erotica alien story :)
