About this listen
My aim is to kill him. His aim? Make me his.
I'm trapped on a harsh, snow-covered planet waiting to be hunted, with no way of escape. I know that the alien warrior chief with purple skin and a cutting tail is coming for me, but I've got no intention of letting him take me.
I'll fight him with hands and fists, knives and teeth. I'll fight the rising heat between us. I'll fight the ache in my chest where an empty hole beats, serving as a painful reminder that once, before his kind took from me, I had a heart.
It’s a heart that the warrior thinks is his. And unfortunately, he's unafraid to fight for what he wants.
__________
Taken to Nobu is book 2 in the Xiveri Mates series! While it features a new couple with their own HEA, it is best enjoyed after book 1. Sensitive listeners should be aware this book contains violent battles, epic steam and references the human heroine's past trauma (SA).

Story
Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

Story
When mystery author D. B. Ziegler is late delivering her book, Abi Schore steps in to help.

When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

All newly minted pediatrician Jamie Malek wants is to borrow a roasting pan for Christmas dinner.

Outside, a howling blizzard. Inside, a crackling fire. Suddenly, being snowbound with the man she never expected to see again might not be such a bad way to spend a winter’s night.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

She’d rather run lost through the woods forever, dangerous though they may be. But there’s something even more sinister than beasts and Berserkers lurking in the woods. Something both undead and deadly. She can’t fight it alone. She’ll have to turn to the Berserker who’s caught the trail of her scent and won’t let it go. He says she’s his. She says never. He says forever.

Whew chile, I was worried
I knew KiKi’s book was going to be difficult because of what happens to her in voraxia. So I was nervous going in. But I enjoyed the author so much, I wanted to give it a chance. She did not disappoint. By the end of the book I did not want it to end! The author has a way of not browbeating her characters with unnecessary repetitive emotions. It seems appropriate while staying true to who that character originally was. The change is not dramatic but in character. And the men are not afraid to call them out on their stuff which is also refreshing. But also very supportive and loving them through their trauma. I will be continuing this series.

Same universe, different planet!
The following ratings are out of 5:
Narration: 🎙🎙🎙🎙🎙
Romance: 💚🖤💙❤️💜
Heat: 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Story/Plot: 📕📗📙📔
World building: 🌏🌍🌎🌍🌏
Character development: 😒😚🥲😍
The heroine: Kiki - she was from the same moon colony as Miari from Taken to Voraxia and was one of Miari’s two best friends. She was two years older than Miari and was an offering to the Drakesh in the hunt twice. She was raped by the evil Bo’Raku both times, since he was the strongest and she the most beautiful. She hadn’t spoken since then. Though she had trained with her brother and is a warrior as well. She was determined to not let her friend Miari be taken in the hunt, so they ran away and she faced the beasts that attacked them in the sewers. She was badly hurt and spent months in the healing chamber.
The Hero: Va’Raku (a.k.a. Okkari) - He knew from the first time he saw Kiki that she was his Xiveri mate. When he and the Raku returned to the moon colony, he planned to take her home, and since she was injured, he stayed by her side while she was in the purple healing waters. Va’Raku is not a name but his position, which is kind of like Vice President while Raku is President (or King).
The Story: Kiki wakes and is in a cave on a frozen planet with many alien women. She is told that they are preparing for the hunt. Though the alien women are there by choice in order to find mates and have babies, Kiki only knows of being part of the hunt against her will and being forced by huge alien males who are much stronger than her. She is determined to fight and either get away or kill any male who tries to catch her.
I didn’t really understand what Va’Raku or his people were thinking. They had to know what people of the moon colony had been through and he stood watch over Kiki all that time. So why would he have her wake from her healing in the cave like that, thinking the same thing was happening to her again, instead of being there when she awakened and talk to her, explaining what she was to him?
Kiki continues to fight Va’Raku even after she starts to feel something for him, though she does second guess her desire to escape. I like this series because there is plenty of romance, steam and side storylines. They are also different from a lot of the “Alien Barbarian” type of Alien romance. These aliens come from different societies and have their own customs and each book is about a different couple and a different setting though in the same universe.
The book is told in dual points of view and done in duet narration where the female narrator does all the female parts and the male narrator does the male parts. Like the first book, this one was narrated by Blaire LaBlanc and I really like her voice, it is soft yet clear and very feminine but not high. The male parts were narrated by Marquis du Sad, and he also had a pleasant voice and did a great job despite his unfortunate name.

Heart and Heat
Even though this is the second book, and then installment, I can safely say this is my favorite. If you have been feeling like romance is all spice and no story, please give this a try. I love the way the author teases the new couples so we can’t anticipate their stand alone novels or novellas. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
My only wish is they highlighted more of the background for the male lead. Other than that, the characters were truly well thought out.

Depressing
This book is a walk through depression, shame, self-loathing and sadness, prejudices and jealousy, self-awareness and healing. Narrators did a good good with characters. It was hard getting through the depressing parts but it was interesting to see how Kiki worked through it to become a better and more tolerant person.

By far my favorite series
This is a phenomenal series I never leave reviews but after listening for a second time to all books because they are that good I had to say something.

Wonderful but ...
This is a wonderful continuation of the stories in this universe. Still has great universe-building and great, detailed characters. The spice level is still pretty low - maybe a 2 on a scale of 5. While Marquis du Sad did a solid narration, Benjamin Charles was a tough act to follow, and I just wanted Benjamin Charles to narrate again, because I think he does such a singular job of capturing cultural nuances that differentiate characters. Now for trigger warnings, this book is a mental health landmine for violent, domestic, intimate partner, and sex crime survivors, and it is an emotional rollercoaster of negativity including, but not limited to, anger, guilt, depression, fear, self-doubt, and self-hatred. There is a HEA, but it is quite the journey to get to it. So if these are triggers, you might want to skip this book. These books are stand-alones. You can go on to the next one, still understand what is going on, enjoy the series, and protect your wellness.
