Exciting New Monster Series！！Clara is arrested and being given the choice of either going to Utopia or the Rut。 In this futuristic time， a person can be arrested for not having enough money to pay bills， being homeless or talking out against the government。 There is no freedom。One choice is to go to Utopia which is advertised as being a place where everyone is taken care of completely。 However， you never come back and there seems to be something the government is hiding about Utopia。 It's not as Exciting New Monster Series！！Clara is arrested and being given the choice of either going to Utopia or the Rut。 In this futuristic time， a person can be arrested for not having enough money to pay bills， being homeless or talking out against the government。 There is no freedom。One choice is to go to Utopia which is advertised as being a place where everyone is taken care of completely。 However， you never come back and there seems to be something the government is hiding about Utopia。 It's not as idealic as it sounds。The other choice is the Rut with the Kadrixan aliens。 These aliens are big， muscular， red with horns and a tail， resembling the human description of the devil。 These male Kadrixans go into a heat or rut that causes violence if not satiated by a female。 The Kadrixans have made a deal with the government to get voluntary females sent to them to help with their rut。 These females can go back home afterwards if they want。Clara decides to go to the rut and hopes she'll be able to come back afterwards to be with her brother。 He's the only family she has left。 Once they arrive， one of the aliens， Krxare， immediately recognizes Clara as his fated mate。 Now he has to convince her to stay with him after the rut instead of going home。Another captivating series by Lynnea Lee！ The world building is done flawlessly and really draws you into this foreign land。 The characters are interesting and likable。 Overall， a great start to a new series and I look forward to many more monster books！I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

This story is about Clara who gets sent to the Kadrixan males for their rutting season because she broke a law for being homeless and complaining about it in Nova Vita and Krxare who is approaching his rut。 Krxare and his males in his command are the survivors and have claimed the planet Vokira as their home along with a human settlement called Utopia。 Upon arrival Krxare looks at the human females and one catches his eye innating the bond of a mate。 Clara just woke up and is dressed fancy and s This story is about Clara who gets sent to the Kadrixan males for their rutting season because she broke a law for being homeless and complaining about it in Nova Vita and Krxare who is approaching his rut。 Krxare and his males in his command are the survivors and have claimed the planet Vokira as their home along with a human settlement called Utopia。 Upon arrival Krxare looks at the human females and one catches his eye innating the bond of a mate。 Clara just woke up and is dressed fancy and strapped when the leader male approaches her。 What occurs afterward is an engaging story I got heavily invested in reading。 The world building was detailed， the characters were likable， their romance steamy， the storyline interesting in this copy I received and volunteer to read and review。 This reads to be an enjoyable series to look forward too as much as I love her Xarc'n Warrior series。 。。。more

I loved this book。 I love this author's work and was very excited to see the beginning of a new series。 Great world building and wonderful characters。 I loved Krxare- he was different than I expected- honorable， caring， and protective。 I loved him very quickly。 Clara was given two choices of punishment for her "crime，" and she chose to go to the alien planet to service the Kadrixian males during their rutting season。 They looked like frightening demons， but Clara was surprised when a male claime I loved this book。 I love this author's work and was very excited to see the beginning of a new series。 Great world building and wonderful characters。 I loved Krxare- he was different than I expected- honorable， caring， and protective。 I loved him very quickly。 Clara was given two choices of punishment for her "crime，" and she chose to go to the alien planet to service the Kadrixian males during their rutting season。 They looked like frightening demons， but Clara was surprised when a male claimed her straight away as his mate。 Krxare never expected to discover his mate， and as soon as he met her eyes and realized it， he fell to his knees before her。 This was such a sweet， fascinating， steamy read。 I loved learning about this new species and can't wait for more in this series。 An excellent beginning to a new series！ 5 stars。 。。。more

book。 It was so incredible that after initially reading it in KU， I went ahead and purchased my own copy。 That honestly says more than anything else I could tell you。 Try the sample， I guarantee

growly monster w/wings*A feisty & smart female*all the feel-goods & consent*once a year rut* satisfying HEA DETAILED LOOK:The "demon monsters" in this book: come in shades of red， have huge & deadly wings， horns， multiple claws， a long & agile devil tail， a split tongue， they exude pheromones， go into a rut once a year， and many more goodies I'm not allowed to say🌋😁。 The Kadrixans were exiled from their home planet of Kadri by the Empress， for refusing to mow down innocents in the name of politics and greed。Commander Krxare doesn't regret the orders he gave， it was the right thing to do。 But he does feel guilty that his warriors were punished along with him。 Never to see their home planet again。 Nor the extravagant aeries they'd painstakingly built over the years to acquire a mate。 Worse， they had no females to get them through their yearly rut。 The rut was normally a joyous event to find mates or have offspring。 But it was a death sentence to an exiled Kadrixan， for without females to ease their rut， they'd go into an unstoppable rage。 Luckily they had stolen enough supplies and ships to find a new home。 A bountiful new planet called Vokira， that was wild and mostly unclaimed。 There were a few native tribes spread over the land and one large human colony。 Even so， the Kadrixans had lost quite a few warriors to the rut that first year。 Now they traded valuable resources in exchange for willing human women from the colony。The human colony is dealing with a lot of inequality and political machinations as well。A bunch of human women have to choose between participating in the rut or going to the new Utopia project。 Since no human has ever came back from the Utopia project， quite a few women actually choose the rut。 Including an artist that was fired and evicted from her home for a negative comment she made about the colony。 When Clara arrives at the Kadrixan compound， commander Krxare shocks everyone by falling to his knees。 That only happens when in the presence of a mate。 This is their story & they're gonna have to work for it。Clara has a brother back at the colony and he's in some trouble of his own。 When he goes missing a much bigger conspiracy unfolds & it keeps getting better as you wade in。Along the way， we get to know the individual warriors and humans （their interactions are comedic gold）。 It's told in dual POV， where there's dedicated chapters to each character， so we get both sides without confusion。We are taken on an adventure through the native tribes， the deceptive human colony， and the new home of the Kradixians （including their compound）。 We get to see their cultures， cuisines， animals and much more。 There is a main plot and several side ones。 The romance and steam is weaved throughout， never sacrificing the plot。Each book features a new couple and their complete HEA but also has overarching storylines。MY OPINIONS:My favorite part about this book was how it made me feel。 I laughed until I cried， felt my heart melt， and walked away ecstatic。 Seeing gruff monsters cherish vulnerable things like animals， their environment， and a mate is everything。 Not everything is sweet， these are warriors after all。 But the fighting and growling is done to perfection， whether it's a real fight against an enemy or a teasing/dominant one with a mate。In a couple of scenes I blushed & looked around guiltily before remembering I was an adult an could read whatever I wanted lol。 Def hot and enthralling content。 It hit me right in the gut。 Not just the love scenes and dirty talk。 Seeing the couple fight for their love， to know and understand someone so different from themself。 Gah magic and bliss。There's a ton of relatable scenes in the book involving humor and sarcasm。 I wanted to be a part of their friend group。 And the pet companions were the cutest little things I've ever heard of- they had the warriors wrapped around their fingers lol。If I had to compare this book with one I've read before I'd say:*Ruby Dixon's Mathiras OR*Regine Abel's I Married A NagaAbsolutely incredible book， I wholeheartedly recommend， & cannot wait for the next one in the series。 Happy reading fellow romance lovers！

An entertaining alien romance。 Clara lives on a distant planet in an Earth colony that has a treaty with aliens who live across the sea。 A treaty established an agreement to send willing women to the aliens for their annual rut。After losing her job for mentioning something less than positive about the colony， Clara then loses her home for not having sufficient credits。 She is given the choice of going to the Utopian colony which is just too perfect to be safe or across the sea to the aliens。 The An entertaining alien romance。 Clara lives on a distant planet in an Earth colony that has a treaty with aliens who live across the sea。 A treaty established an agreement to send willing women to the aliens for their annual rut。After losing her job for mentioning something less than positive about the colony， Clara then loses her home for not having sufficient credits。 She is given the choice of going to the Utopian colony which is just too perfect to be safe or across the sea to the aliens。 The aliens at least allow Women’s who aren’t happy to return to their home colony compared to people just vanishing after going to the Utopian colony。 When Clara wakes up in the transport， a huge alien male has dropped to his knees in front of her and claimed her as his mate。 In the days leading up to the rut， Clara gets the chance to get to know the male who has claimed her as his mate。 She finds him attractive in a demon-kind of way， and finds him exceptionally protective and caring towards her making her feel safe for the first time in a long time。While Clara and Krxare come from very different backgrounds they are well suited for each other。 Once the rut takes over Krxare， the chemistry between them ignites。 Feelings definitely grow between them and Clara is concerned if they are true feelings or a result of the pheromones Krxare emits whenever he touches or is close to Clara。Clara wants to stay with her alien mate at the end of the rut， but she is exceptionally concerned about her brother who is still back on her home colony。 Clara pulls a typical romance heroine stunt and tries to solve a problem without discussing it with her mate and actually uses subterfuge to deceive him about her intentions to return to her home colony。 Lack of communication or misunderstandings are so much a part of romance novels anymore， readers just seem to wait for it to happen and hope the resulting separation is short and quickly resolved！ In this case， the separation is fairly short and is the cause of some action as Krxare comes to the rescue of his mate。I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

Surprisingly sweet story。 Went into the story not really sure what to expect and was pleasantly surprised。 Loved how Clara was discovering another perspective on life and choosing to LIVE it -the end was slightly rushed and not as detailed as the rest of the story but I/m very interested in reading the next installment of this world。 It ends with a great HEA but with the promise of additional characters from this world。

I thought this was a great read。 The world building was very good although I was a little confused by the locations of the different settlements in relation to each other。 The mystery of Utopia and was is happening there is intriguing and I hope this is explored more in future books。 The idea of the warriors providing aeries designed to impress their mates was fascinating。 There is some action and adventure but the focus was very much on the relationship between the two main couples。 I’m looking I thought this was a great read。 The world building was very good although I was a little confused by the locations of the different settlements in relation to each other。 The mystery of Utopia and was is happening there is intriguing and I hope this is explored more in future books。 The idea of the warriors providing aeries designed to impress their mates was fascinating。 There is some action and adventure but the focus was very much on the relationship between the two main couples。 I’m looking forward to rea#ing more in this series。 。。。more
