Tamed by Presley Hall
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This caged Kalixian is wild. Brutal. Dangerous.
Tamed
So why can’t I stay away from him?
With the marks tattooed on his face and horns sharpened to deadly points, he looks like a monster made for killing. He’s unlike any of the other alien warriors on this planet, and despite their efforts to help him, he only seems to be growing more feral.
But every time I go to visit him, something strange happens.
He stops pacing.
He goes still.
He stares at me.
When his bright golden eyes focus on me, it’s like every layer of armor I’ve ever worn is peeled away. Even though he can’t understand a word I say, I swear he… sees me.
In those moments, I’m certain I can glimpse the man inside the beast. I’m certain there’s more to him than just violence and rage.
But when disaster strikes one day and I find myself on the run with the savage Kalixian, everything I think I know about him is put to the test. Can I truly trust this man? Can he keep me safe in this perilous landscape?
Or is he the most dangerous thing in the wilds of Kalix?

Sophie and Caul – Sophie is from the group of human women rescued before they were put up for auction in Damaged. Caul is the feral, battle hardened slave that was also held in a cage in the same warehouse to be sold as a fighter for the underground fighting rings. When the Kalixian’s rescued them, Caul had to be tranquillized so he didn’t hurt himself or any of the rest of them.
Once they arrive on Kalix and Sophie is given a place to live, she doesn’t feel comfortable anywhere in the city, she is only at ease in one place. The holding area where the feral alien is being kept. She doesn’t know why she feels that way, but is drawn to the place. At first she just wanted to make sure he was treated ok, but she kept returning.
This book was told in dual points of view and narrated by C.J.Grey and Joy Beharie. C.J. Grey is great as usual, though I didn’t really like Joy’s voice. It is funny, all the other books so far were narrated by C.J. and Meg Price and I didn’t really like Meg’s voice at the beginning, but grew to like it after a few books, now I was used to her and didn’t really like the new one. I think she was just too loud and she had a southern accent, which I don’t mind at all, I think it was her tempo or something.
This was a good story, like most in the series so far. I like the fierce and feral Hero and the meek human female story. It was so hot in the escape from the warehouse when Caul gets out and goes up against all the guards and kills the majority of them. Caul was very large and strong and he was a trained fighter, so he was a great Hero. This book was super steamy and romantic.
