Sienna, a kickass heroine.Legian, a sexy alien.Together, they offer the reader everlasting love, some hot hanky panky, amped up sci-fi and a happily ever after.Sienna's life becomes complicated when she saves Legian from a crash landing and discovers he's an alien. Then her life rockets into the unknown when she becomes Legion's tahren (his lifelong mate) and is thrown into an interstellar battle that involves not only the fate of their relationship but the fate of Earth.Berinn Rae offers entertaining storytelling that a reader can sink their teeth into. With great attention to detail and a lot of world building, her characters feel real. She's not afraid to push them to their limits to see what they're made of, and it's clear with Sienna and Legian that their happily ever after won't come easily. Then again, that's what makes it sweet. While Sienna and Legion must deal with their newfound bond, Sienna also must learn the ways of a new culture that she's been drawn into. And together they have to shut down a race that's determined to enslave, defeat and kill. It's a battle that comes with a cost, and it's one that Sienna faces head on and willingly. In the end, she shows us the true leader she is.If you enjoy sci-fi/urban fantasy with a side order of passion and romance, and a little JR Ward thrown in, this book is for you. Definitely recommended -- and curious to see what Rae has up her sleeve for the second in the trilogy!
