An indentured human woman. An Imperial man on a mission. A fake marriage born in the stars.
When my master died, I believed I’d be set free.
Instead, I’m sent to a temple where I’m forced to continue doing the one thing I know—pleasing alien males.
Until Gael the Returner arrives.
Half-human and half-Imperial, he travels the galaxy, rescuing humans.
But instead of offering me my freedom, he has other plans.
He needs me to spy for him, then he swears he will set me free.
I just need to marry him first.
What starts as a marriage of convenience to the most dangerous criminal in the sector becomes something more.
Everything I do is for him.
But after the life I’ve led, my complicated past, so much stands in our way.
I thought Gael would give me freedom, instead, he’s entrapped my heart with no means of escape.
One-click this thrilling, dark, and intense sci-fi romance filled with morally grey characters, damsel in distress, and a fake marriage that leads friends to become lovers, despite the complications it brings.

The galaxy is not a nice place for humans.
My Human Wife is quite the dark and intense story and author Olympia Black is definitely an acquired taste.
I find her writing style different and genre breaking but didn’t find myself quite as taken with the narration of this audiobook version.
I can be overly particular when it comes to the listening experience and didn’t find myself engaged with the voice talents used here.
The story is an impressive very detailed exploration into the life and times of a woman who longs to be free but has to put that dream aside when half human and half Imperial MMC Gael the Returner who travels the galaxy rescuing humans, makes Lara an offer for her assistance with his current mission, and she cannot refuse if she wants to escape from her current dire straits.
The story overall is a good one and does reach an HEA, but the author’s trigger warnings should be heeded for sensitive readers/listeners before taking this highly unusual journey.

Good Story!

Narration: Bridget Bordeaux nails Lara’s raw emotions, while Jake Bordeaux does a solid job with the male voices, though Gael’s character felt a bit too detached at times. The dual narration really adds a nice touch to the overall experience.
Recommend?
Definitely, if you’re into darker, complex sci-fi romance. Just be ready for some heavy themes!.

This book mentions the IGC and the Imperials who are thought to be of the same species as humans that are in Alma Nilsson Alliance series books which is an interesting intergalatic world as is this authors book that seems to weave both galectic worlds and species. There is humor.

What a whirlwind of a read. I loved it. Five stars, a romance with beautifully written characters, genuine themes and great angst.

The story is about Lara who was kidnapped as a child and sold as a slave. Her master dies and she's sent to a temple where a half-human half-imperial man comes to save her but they accidentally end up married. She's then sent to be a spy in a harem of humans.
I have to admit the story was okay but it could have been better. Lara and Gael didn't seem to have as much as a connection as the story was leading me to believe to be honest they barely spend any time together before she's sent off to spy but when they reunite they are madly in love it didn't seem very organic. I really wish this could have been a longer story so we could have seen the relationship evolve.
The bad guy didn't seem soo much like a bad guy to be honest I thought at one point he was going to turn out to be the real good guy but no so that was kind of weird but with the title being My Human Wife I guess that wouldn't have made much sense but it would have been a good plot twist.
I did enjoy the world that the story is set in. I've read alien romances with tentacle monsters but this was something else, it definitely kept you listening so you could find out about these other species.
The sex even when it wasn't consensual was still pretty hot. The scenes that were meant to be arousing definitely did their jobs and the scenes that were meant to be revolting also really hit their mark. The opening few chapters were quite a shock being dumped into this world.
I wish we had gotten a more conclusive epilogue and found out more about the other women that were in the harem but that didn't happen so that's a little disappointing.
All in all it wasn't the best story but it definitely wasn't the worst. It had some good moments.
The Narration
Bridget and Jake do a good job of bringing the characters to life and differentiating between all of them. I loved that this was a duet narration it takes you into the story a lot more than dual narration style. They both give a solid performance and they are what truly makes the story worth listening to. I'll definitely be seeking out more books narrated by this duo.
