Resumen del Editor

I woke from cryostasis a prisoner. My crime? I have no idea.

I was stuck with a hundred other women, all headed to who knows where. Captive in a dank, dirty cargo hold. Then, out of the darkness, came Solair.

A handsome alien. Golden skinned. Horned. The dashing captain of a pirate ship. They rescued us - he gave my people food, shelter, and promised us safety. In exchange? He took me for himself.

But the people who captured us, haven't given up. They want us back. They're powerful and will do whatever it takes to find us. The only thing stopping them? Solair.

He wants me. And what he takes...he keeps.

Contains mature themes.

A Purposeful Storyline with Depth: A Promising Start to the Series

I have to say, I really enjoyed this book. While there are some sexual parts, they actually serve a purpose in the story, so they didn’t feel gratuitous. Instead, they’re integrated in a way that makes sense for the narrative. The main female character can be a bit annoying at first, but she acknowledges her flaws, and as the story unfolds, you start to understand why she behaves the way she does, which leads to those “aha” moments. Overall, I liked this first book in the series, and there’s a lot of potential in exploring each new female and male character. I’m definitely looking forward to the next book.

Not as good as I hoped...

Usually a big fan of Athena's work, was really let down by this one. The heroine is petulant and stubborn to a fault with a need to be in control at all times. Couldn't get past her personality enough to finish the book.

great

love this story, it was amazing although a but drawn out. can't wait for another story

Loved the Lack of too Much Drama

I appreciated the storyline and the various personalities of the woman. The narrators did a great job of capturing them. Also, I enjoyed being able to envision what it was like for everyone to adjust to life on the Queen without fighting outsiders.

Awful Female Lead

Just as the other reviewers have said, I’m struggling to finish this book. The “heroine” is ungrateful and selfish, rude, and downright stupid. I really want to enjoy the story. I’m enjoying the narration for the most part and the story plot is interesting, but I don’t think I’ll ever finish this book. Maybe I’ll try book 2 to see if that woman is at all tolerable.

ungrateful to the fullest

Damm that woman is beyond annoying n selfish 😒
including her crew no wonder they all got locked up just down right horrible women and why so much drama

Great narration. Interesting plot. Shitty heroine.

Good initial story building and plot premise. The male lead and other male characters are pretty solid and enjoyable. Narration is stellar. Could have been a great book except....Can't get past the God awful women in this book! The heroine (who is supposedly ex-military and should behave better) is selfish, spoiled, ungrateful, unreasonable and down right unenjoyable. Her uncomplimentary attitude seems to be mirrored among most of the female characters in this story. Very seriously, wish I could enjoy the book but spent most of my time angrily wishing I could slap some sense into all these ridiculous entitled bitches. I hope this isn't a common theme in the series but I'm not sure if I'm willing to find out.

I love Celia’s books but…

These women, especially the heroine had something bad happen to them of course BUT, I have never read anything with more ungrateful, rude, hateful and entitled women. I barely made it through the book because it literally made me feel ashamed to be a woman.

Interesting Concept in a Series

Good storyline, I was aggravated listening to this because I had to change the volume for each chapter. The female reader is recorded louder than the male reader, so the volume has to be adjusted accordingly for every chapter.

Throw her out the airlock!

This could have been a fun, new book and series to enjoy but the female lead is absolutely infuriating. The ship of males save the women from a dying ship and the the heroine is rude, ungrateful and very demanding. If I was on the ship with her I'd be tempted to send her out the airlock or at the very least lock her up in a waaay back room where I couldn't hear her. Unfortunately she is constantly in everyone's face bitching and whining to the point that I can't even try to grit my teeth through the rest of the book.
