I have been wanting to read this series for a while.  Unfortunately, this book left me feeling very disappointed.  This isn't one of those stories I would expect to be universally hated.  On the contrary, I am sure there are lots of people who like this sort of thing.  It just wasn't for me.  Why?1)  The editing was not so good.  It wasn't the worst I have seen, especially among free kindle books, but it was poor enough to detract from the story - in my opinion.2)  The story itself was sort of thin.  Much like celery is a blue ranch dressing delivery system, this story felt like it was nothing more than a sex delivery system.  A lot of the sex scenes felt like bad porno to me.  The scenes were just shoved into very unlikely situations for no other purpose than just adding sex.  It was really too much.  I found myself skimming through these scenes by the end of the book.3)  There were some seriously annoying logic flaws in the story.  For example, the Delroi have invaded Earth for the purpose of gaining access to female breeding stock because the birth rate for females among their own people has dropped to 1 in 5 of all births.  When the heroine becomes pregnant with a boy, the Delroi are disappointed because they had hoped to conceive more female children with Earth women.  So apparently, these very advanced, space faring people have no grasp of basic biology?  Irksome.4)  I felt no kinship for either the Hero or the heroine.  I really didn't see them together at all.  Their interactions just felt flat to me.  The Hero, in particular, was rather unlikable.  Other than the typical far-fetched, irresistible, insta-attraction, there was nothing that bound the two main characters together.I guess this just wasn't my cup of tea.  As far as world creation, this has been done better in other books.  I won't spend money on any of the other Delroi books.
