Publisher Description
Helvana Clue expected a paycheck, not destiny.
One moment she's a bug‑obsessed grad drowning in student loans. The next, she's standing on an alien world where women are nearly extinct—and a thousand Earth women have been taken to rebuild a dying civilization.
At the center of it all stands Dagon: warrior king, scarred protector, and the infuriatingly gentle stranger who once bought her dinner and guarded her door all night.
He believes she's the key to saving his people.
She believes she's going home the first chance she gets.
But as Vana becomes entangled with four orphaned alien boys, a deadly plague, and a kingdom desperate for hope, she begins to wonder if she was brought here for a reason. And if the fierce, loyal king who keeps choosing her might be the one thing she can't walk away from.
A slow‑burn, non‑explicit romance about courage, belonging, and the unexpected places we find home.
Perfect For Fans Of…
•possessive alien warriors, reluctant brides, found family, and the heroine who was supposed to be a captive but ended up saving the whole civilization.

The book was pretty good, a tad homophobic but still
Horrible
I've read several of this authors works and this is definitely the last one I'll purchase. This book is highly offensive not only to women, but to just about everyone. Even being fiction doesn't save this junk from it's small minded views.
Absolutely hated it.
I have read multiple other books by this author and quite liked them. I despised this book for what I hope was a mischaracterization of "Earth" women. Women in this book (and please learn when to use women vs. woman) are portrayed as feeble minded and weak. Out of around a thousand kidnapped women, only 5 or 6 of them wanted to leave. Seriously? To top it off, those 5 or 6 were so inferior that they didn't even stand a chance at escape. The author made it quite clear that only virgins were desired and kidnapped, but yet they were morally loose enough to commit sex in public immediately after their weddings. Drape or no drape, it was still sex in public. I was definitely not won over by the fact that the men were so pathetic they ejaculated almost as soon as the sex began. "I can't wait." Really? Now we know why they had to have virgins! No experienced woman would tolerate it.
