Summary:
Abducted by a space pirate, she fights the temptation to let him plunder her goods.
A boyfriend’s attempted murder leaves Megan floundering in the ocean. Sinking without hope, the bright light she sees in the night sky isn’t her doorway to heaven, but rather the beginning of her accidental abduction by a space pirate. While thankful of his rescue, Megan stays true to form and just can’t keep her mouth shut, even when he keeps threatening to kill her–or auction her off to the highest bidder. Even odder, despite her decision to not get involved with her wickedly hot captor, she can’t help craving his touch.
Tren retired from his job as a mercenary so he could enjoy life, but he never counted on the boredom of normalcy. The acquisition of rare items has somewhat filled the void, but his accidental abduction of an outspoken earthling, who doesn’t know when to shut up, turns his life upside. Her fiery spirit draws him while at the same time drives him insane. Struggling with his urges, he must decide– throttle her barbarian neck or ravish her delectably lush body?
Despite what his heart tries to tell him, he’s determined to sell her to the highest bidder even as he seduces her body. However, despite his best intentions, he discovers he can’t let her go. And when a foe from his past thinks to steal her, he’ll do anything to get her back.
Olivia’s Review:
I absolutely loved Accidental Abduction by Ms. Eve Langlais. Her story was sweet and funny and sexy. Her characters are real and engaging. And the sparks between Megan and Tren practically burn the pages of… the screen of my Kindle!
Megan is an absolute, wonderfully hilarious character. She has her opinion, and she has no problem letting anybody know what that opinion is. She’s pissed off about a lot of things – most recently, almost being killed by her slimy boyfriend then being abducted by and alien – and she has no qualms about telling Tren about how pissed off she is. Speaking of Tren, he is such an awesome hero. He’s bored in retirement, exasperated by Megan, and 100% alpha male. He’s rough and more comfortable with a gun in his hand, and he’s just completely perfect for Megan.
I really enjoyed their sparring. Throughout the entire story, they were arguing and sniping at one another. I also liked the fact that Ms. Langlais actually created new species in outer space. Too many sci-fi romances have Earth girls being the center of lust for an alien who just happens to conveniently look, act, and sound human. It was refreshing to see Ms. Langlais use her imagination and create new words and worlds and peoples.
The sparks – and sarcasm! – flies across space in this awesome book, Accidental Abduction!
Rated 5 Ravens and a Recommended Read by Olivia!
