Publisher's summary

Abbey

Some scary-looking aliens have just boarded Fortuna Tau, our little asteroid mining station. Kordolians, by the looks of things. What the hell do they want with this floating rust bucket? What are they even doing here?

Come to think of it, I've never seen a Kordolian up close before. They're huge and intimidating, with strange silver skin and pointed ears. They have freaky nano-armor, and they're packing a serious arsenal. We humans stand no chance against them.

When I encounter their general, I find him insufferable. Arrogant. Domineering. He won't tell me anything. I guess that's what happens when your race is kicking ass across the Nine Galaxies. You get pigheaded.

So why do I keep running into him? Why does he keep looking at me like that? And what's with this weird feeling I get when he's around? I really hope these guys fix their ship and go away soon, because I get the feeling they could be major trouble.

Tarak

Sucked into a wormhole during a fierce skirmish with an enemy ship. Spat out near a human mining station in a remote corner of the Nine Galaxies. Stuck with weak humans who operate with inferior metals and technology.

This mission couldn't get any worse.

We need to fix our craft, kill the cursed Xargek, and get out of here before the wormhole collapses. I don't really care about these humans. Their existence makes no sense to me.

So why has this strange human female captured my attention? She's messy, awkward, and she babbles nonsense half the time.

These humans are crazy. I don't understand them at all, especially this female. Why do I keep coming back to her?

I need to leave this place before I go insane.

Contains mature themes.

So excited that there are already 8 books in the series

I found this gem just before Book 3 was released on Audible- very excited that there are 7 more books at least possible! Book 1 was a refreshing take on space romance, and the author does an amazing job at creating the “landscapes” with words. Narrators were different- but not distracting. I seriously loved the sections read by Todd McLaren.

More please, Audible Gods!!

Story was great, male narrator not so much

I really loved the story overall. The male narrator was slightly annoying in my opinion.

Read the entire series in a weekend

I read in the entire series in one weekend and I loved it! Loved the premise and loved the stories but I was not impressed with the narrators... They did and okay job but the pacing felt off to me. I hope they pick it up a better and continue the series!

Good, sexy alien romance.

Heroine was not whiny- which I love. Just enough defiance to make her real. Great hero, and some unique elements to space alien romance.

Mixed Feelings

Pros: I like the world building, the hero, and the big bad in the form of an evil society on a dying planet. The storyline was interesting enough to not only keep me listening, but to purchase books 2, 3, and 4.5.

Cons: There were moments I didn't like the heroine. In fact, there were moments I disliked her intensely and thought she was stupid. Despite my personal feelings, it just means the author did a good job with building her characters.

Absolutely loved this book.

It is not just the story. It is not just the many twists. It is not just the scary world the story describes. It is the intriguing dialogue! The intriguing characters! The amazing way the characters interact, the humanity, the flaws, intricacies, the needs, and desires that make us human that are brought in to color and sway the emotions as the story unfolds! Enjoy!

Excellent story🌟♥️

Anna Carven writes the best Sci Fi alien romances. Complex works building and wonderfully written characters are her hallmark. You will love Abby and Tarak! This is the first in her Dark planet Warriors series and you won’t be disappointed. Todd McLaren brings Tarak to life and his voice is unique and give the general an elegance and hard edge you’d expect for a Kordolian warrior. Jillian Macie does a beautiful job as Abby giving the character just the right amount of fierceness and vulnerability to make her a memorable leading lady. I can’t wait to listen to the whole series.♥️🔥🌟♥️🔥🌟

Great story

Looking forward to more of the series. Hope a different female narrator is used next time though. I've heard Jillian Macie do worse, but her inflections are still irritating.
