Heroic Abduction is an amazing read with a hot sexy purple alien that will have your stomach hurting from laughter. Filled with adventure, romance, hot sensual love scenes, an awesome heroine with an amazing sense of humor who is not afraid to follow her gut feelings, to one of the most hunky, funny heroes I could not get enough of this story.Dyre has decided to follow his own dream of becoming a hero and deviating from his mercenary heritage. This has driven his family so crazy they have pretty much disowned him.Our hero embarks on a quest to fulfill his destiny, only things doesn't go exactly as planned. Basically causing more destruction and calamity rather than saving the day, Dyre  is a little befuddle as to why those he has "rescued" seem so anxious to be rid of him.  Hysterically Dyre somehow interprets their less than thrilled reactions as positive and wonderful. Even the man-eating plants he has been gifted with " must" have been given to him to show how "only one as brave as he is could handle them."Obviously unaware of the saying "no good deed goes unpunished", Dyre continues his mission across the universe, when he hears if a maiden in distress about to be sacrificed to a dangerous beast. Betty, our heroine, has been plotting to steal  treasures in the lair of this beast when she is "rescued" by a purple warrior who has no clue he is spoiling her plans.Betty decides to stick with the hot purple hunk, despite her impression that he is somewhat lacking in the common sense department. After all there is something cute about the bug guy, even if occasionally turns out she is the one doing the rescuing.Betty makes a great heroine and match for Dyre, who is in need of a damsel in distress. Ever one to ignore advice and safety precautions, trouble and danger follow her. She is spunky,fearless,rebellious and to her surprise starts to  find herself  attracted to the quirky purple hunk.  Besides, Betty is curious as to what all the big deal is about this " mating " business.The banter and dialogue between the two was hilarious, especially since they were both on such different wavelengths without even knowing it.Dyre finds he is becoming more and more drawn to the"small "barbarian" who draws out his need to protect and even processes. Their attraction and romance grows throughout all the chaos.Their relationship becomes stronger with the many (often comical) obstacles and situations they encounter out in space, as well as dealing with his annoying interfering parents. Hot sexy love scenes seal the deal.Defining and redefining his own description of what a hero is, Dyre nevertheless is an extremely skilled and effective warrior. The authors amazing talent for humorous writing excelled with Dyre turning all his heroic attempts into success stories despite serious mishaps. I give the heroine so much credit for understanding his mojo and the wit she needed to go along with it all.A few new characters are introduced in this book. Dyre's parents are so funny as the distraught parents of their mercenary pirate son going all good hero, and Betty's awesome kickass, overprotective killer bird-like alien sister/copilot.Eve Langlais  is not only an amazing sci-fy, adventure, romance author but quite the comedic wit. I love the world she has built of purple mercenary hunks and the women who love them.Heroic Abduction is one of my favorite of the series, they are all great reads. Reading them in order is a good idea as ties to the rest of the series are in each book.Don't miss reading Heroic Abduction, it will put a smile on your face from ear to ear!
