All I wanted was one hot night with an alien gladiator…
Consumed
Ever since the Kalixian warriors rescued us from our Orkun captors, I’ve made no secret of the fact that I think these bronze, horned aliens are hot as hell.
I have no interest in the whole “fated mate” thing, but I definitely wouldn’t mind a roll in the sheets with any of these men.
Well… one man, if I’m being honest.
Tycran.
There’s something about the stoic, gorgeous alien that draws me in—even though he’s the only one who seems completely immune to my flirtations.
I’m not sure why I’m so drawn to him, or why I’ve set my sights on the most unattainable man on Kalix. Maybe it’s because when I get a glimpse behind his stony mask, the spark of passion I see in his eyes makes my pulse pound.
I want to be the one to light that spark. I want to show him how much fun it could be to just let loose for once.
I’m playing with fire. I know that.
But maybe I want to get burned.
A warrior monk, a seed heist and a suicide mission!

Lucy and Tycran – Lucy was a stripper in Las Vegas before she was sold to the Orkun warlords in exchange for alien technology. She is determined and independent and doesn’t want a fated mate like the other women, but deep down she is fooling herself and just doesn’t think she is worthy. However she has been attracted to Tycran since the Kalixians first rescued the women from the Orkun.
So Lucy finally decides she wants to hook up with Tycran, whom she has been attracted to for a while but when she goes to him, he confuses her and stalks away. Tycran is a warrior and for years has worked toward nothing but revenge against the Orkun. He has thought of nothing else and has lived to fight the enemy. He is so dedicated it is almost a religion to him. His attraction to Lucy will just get in the way, so exerts his well known control and tries to ignore it. He plans to go on a suicide mission against the Orkun, and is not happy when he finds that Lucy has stowed away.
Meg Price and C.J. Grey did the narration on this book, like the rest of the series. They did a fine job, though like I said before, I do like C.J. better than Med and at the very beginning, she did use a kind of annoying voice when Lucy talked, but that was only for a few minutes when she was talking to other women. I liked the journey in this book, there is more intrigue action and battles. I loved that Tycran was so focused and single-minded. He is a great Hero and Lucy is a spitfire.
