Publisher's summary

Rayna

If one male remained alive in the universe, and that male was Lord Ledos, I’d let both of our species die out. He looks like a rock star, swaggers like the galaxy’s greatest gift swings between his leather-clad legs. He’s a force of nature. I’m a wallflower. We couldn’t be more opposite. It would be so much easier to ignore him if my body didn’t light up like a display screen every time he was near.

When I’m forced to live on his ship because some marks on his chest mean I’m his mate, I’m furious. I’m not cut out to be anyone’s mate, especially his.

Ledos

I am Ledos, wielder of the longbow and lord of my Sola, my living ship and symbiont. My brothers consider me a waste, and yes, I have been known for indulging in pleasures of every kind. But that was before an enemy attack caused my ship to become separated from the others. Before I rescued one of my brothers and his Sola from certain death, and with him, the human females under his protection. Before I met her.

The instant I meet Rayna Lee, my body burns with the mating marks. The little human is mine. My true mate. My love. And for some reason, she detests me.

When an accident causes us to be stranded on the planet’s surface and forced to survive on our own, Rayna accepts me as her mate, but being away from my symbiont ship for so long is slowly killing me. I can survive anything the enemy Brakken throws at me, but I cannot survive losing her.

Craved by the Alien Lord is book four in the Lords of Destra series. Each is a complete story with no cliffhangers, nor cheating, and guaranteed consent and happy endings.

The heroine: Rayna - she was on a research mission in space on a starship that happened to have an incompetent crew who got them into trouble and crashed the ship. She and all the other women on board the ship had to eject in escape pods and land on the nearest planet which happens to be a desolate world which is occupied by warring aliens, the Destra and the Brakken. Rayna had been abducted by the Brakken and held hostage in one of their vehicles. Their filth covered the floor of the vehicles where they kept her. She suffered greatly while held by the Brakken and sometimes wonders if getting saved was a good thing.

The Hero: Ledos - He is a Lord of Destra, which means he and his living ship (Sola) are symbionts. He was chosen to be a Lord by his Sola and from that point on he is bonded with his ship and together they are in charge of the welfare of all his people that live on the ship. When they landed on the planet, his ship was stranded far from the other Sola’s, and they have found one of the other seven Sola’s, but need to find the rest before they can move on to a planet that can sustain life.

The Story: The Sola’s, while not in space, have stalks that reach out from below the living ship and attach to fertile ground. They create a substance called Lami which sustains the Destran people and also heals them when they are injured. Though the Brakken want the Lami as a drug. They are a primitive race, though they are powerful, and they have landed on the planet and are searching for the Destrans and their Sola’s.

Rayna was rescued from the Brakken and is now aboard one of the two Sola’s that had found each other. She is learning the Destran language and learning to live again after her ordeal. The two Sola’s were connected, and the Lord of the second Sola was Ledos. Rayna was afraid of everything but couldn’t quite keep her eyes off Ledos when he was around. Though she really sees him as a player, and she isn’t ready for any romantic involvement.

I liked this story. I liked that Ledos was a ladies' man and that he was so interested in Rayna and knew immediately she was his mate, but knows she isn’t fond of him. He has to figure out how to win her over. I also liked that the Sola’s were connected, and Rayna had her friend Jetta to talk to and Ledos has Savair who is also a Lord, to go to for advice. Savair is actually pretty good at giving advice about romancing a human female.

I also felt pretty bad for Rayna at the start of this book, in Jetta and Savair’s book, Jetta described the conditions Rayna was held in. Apparently, the vehicles the Brakken used were disgusting. They stayed in the vehicles for months, and the floors were covered in their feces and urine. Rayna was kept on the floor in all that. Now whenever she has a spare moment, she showers or bathes and scrubs herself raw. I can totally understand that.

This audiobook was done in dual points of view via dual narration. It was narrated by Tor Thom and Elle Sonali. They also did the last book which I listened to earlier this week. Both do a fantastic job and have perfect voices for these characters. I love Tor Thom for these large and powerful aliens as he has a super deep voice which almost sounds otherworldly.

Narrators did not communicate

Craved by the Alien Lord is book 4 in the Lords of Destra series. This book is about 33 year old human, geologist, Raina, and Destran, Lord Letos of the purple Sola. His Sola is full of the artists and musical types and is very free spirited and colorful. So much so that it is natural for his people to go around topless or naked. Raina was saved from Bracken capture by fellow human Jetta and Jetta’s mate Savair toward the end of book 1. She was held captive in a transport vehicle where she was held in a container of their waste. This causes her to struggle with feeling clean even after she is rescued. She takes multiple baths per day and scrubs her skin raw at times in an effort to feel clean. Initially, Raina doesn’t want anything to do with Letos because she thinks he is hooks up with everyone, which to be fair, prior to Raina, that was what Letos did. But then Raina can’t deny her connection to him. This was a good addition to the series. I enjoyed it. I liked the adventure they had together. I struggled with the narration in this book though. The book is narrated in dual POV with a female and male narrator. The narrators did not speak prior to doing their portions and the book suffered for it. Each narrator pronounced various character names differently, most importantly was the main female character’s name. The female narrator’s voices pronounced Raina as Ray-na which I considered to be correct. The male narrator’s voices pronounced Raina as Rain-ya which was really annoying. I also struggled at times with the male main character’s voice and cadence but for the most part it was okay. I thought he did a great job with books 1-3, so hopefully this was just a one off. Overall, I enjoyed this book and give it 4 stars. I am looking forward to continuing the series.
