This is a great book that offers a different take on the alien abduction of women from Earth.  Two seven foot alien warriors are looking for "pleasure pets" different from the brown blobs and robotic kind that are the norm.  They come upon Earth women, a species that are only given to The Royals and decide to take a chance despite their history of choosing pets that ended up going crazy.  Rue and Dawn are "harvested" and endure processing and the fear of the unknown.  They are the perfect pair; Rue is a fighter/leader and Dawn is a quiet, studious follower.  And their personalities lend a change in the basic abductions because despite their appearances, they are capable of reasoning and are given the opportunity to study their new planet in advance to their landing.The aliens believe that the pair are fragile, brainless, and "cute" they find that other warriors are envious.  The Warrior planet is dying because their have not been any women born to give birth and the "Temple of Mothers" has only a few elderly and protected female species.The two warriors take their pets down to their planet to begin the claiming process which entails being chased; and leave them while they have a drink at the local cave/bar.  When they return and find the two pets missing, it is the beginning of a humorous chase with the women using their knowledge of the planet to astound the warriors at every turn.  Good book with many surprise laughs.  Amazon Verified Review
