Intimidator is marked as a Scifi and kinky captive fantasy romance which is why I signed up to review it. I'm enjoying scifi romance at the moment as you can see from my last review of another scifi romance.I have to give the author full marks on the scifi elements on this one. It would seem that aliens have invaded Australia (makes a change from the usual stories of aliens invading America. LOL) And the queen mothers (my brain is fried, I can't remember what the queen thingy were called) live underground and capture humans who they alter into their minions.Enter the good aliens who've been fighting the bad ones from one planet to another. After his last battle success, Stom, an alien warrior, is awarded a prize--Willow. He can capture her and turn her into his pet. Except, Stom doesn't want a pet. He made a promise to his dead spouse never to take another. But he has to take the woman or lose face or something.So he sees Willow in a bar where she works, saves her from an attack, administers the serum which will transform her to a pet and that's how their romance starts.As kinky captive romances go, this one didn't quite hit the spot for me. I mean, it just wasn't kinky enough. LOL. But that could be just my taste. Yes, she was transformed to his pet without her consent and eventually became his mate and that's about as kinky as it got.All the same, this is an enjoyable read for lovers of sci-fi romance. Cari Silverwood writes with a good sense of humor and I will read more of her books.
