Review: Vile insults of religion, mixed with amazingly repetitive sex
Rating: 1 out of 5

The author has written an interesting series of paranormal romance / erotica menage books that have one primary flaw. The author cannot seem to stop insulting Christianity, Islam and Judism. The main topic of this book is a series of conversations where the author mischaracterizes all three religions, insults them and all organized religion, and touts her own religious beliefs that the only valid religion. Her relilgion is either self examination building to whatever conclusions you want to reach or athiesm. Seriously, I found it hard to tell.. Mixed in are copious claims that organized religion is intolerant of various & sundry sexual practices and supresses women. If you buy this book, you must be intersted in listening to this endless and repetitive monolog, and it cannot bother you that the author has openly twisted facts in order to allow for further and more severe insults.The plot could have been an interesting and fun romance / erotica plot like some of her other books. The aliens (K--) and humans are at war, as the K-- will go extinct without genetic help from the humans, which the human government has said flat out it won't supply. Basically, they need human women to marry. The leading lady is a nun in a convent that has many other young ladies and about 40 girls (children, basically orphans). The K-- capture this group of ladies as part of the war effort, and the leading lady concludes that their actions are no different than what humans do; her religion basically says that it is okay as part of a war for men to conquor a country and force the women to be wives. Still, she is none too happy with being forced into marraige and have sex with three husbands. She doesn't pull her punches, and labels this behavior rape outright. One of the guys (#3) has a sister who was raped, so he is very sensitive to not doing anything that is similar to rape, and so doesn't want to use the genetically built-in euphoria venom as a cheat. So, the plot is basically them building a relationship while other family groups do the same with other women from the convent.The implementation, alas, is sub-standard. It focuses mainly on her sexual hangups from religious teachings (conveyed in copious anti-religion sermons). So we can't go even a few pages without the romance topic being sidetracked by the "insult religion" main message. The "build a relationship" quickly simplifies to sexual intimacy, pushing sexual boundaries, sex, sex with pain play and more sex. The whole "let's build a relationship slowly" idea was interesting, but the author dropped it very quickly, along with the "dealing with the aftermath of rape" issue for guy #3. Another failed potential aspect is the children, and their fate. That plot was predictable I'm sorry to say, and not special enough to make up for the other failings.For the erotica, the implementation was tedious and repetitious. It really read like the author did a lot of cut-and-paste. The guys didn't even change their order. Guy #1, Guy #2, Guy #3, done. Yawn. There was some pain play (she is into that) but this is isolated enough to be easily skipped if that isn't your thing.
