About this eBook

Readers&#39 Crown Finalist! A brash, kick-ass heroine with a hidden vulnerability and an arrogant king forced to be a slave...


Riley St. Claire has always followed her own rules. When she discovers her current employer is not as law-abiding as she thought, she has to leave town in a hurry or end up buried with the dead guy she discovered. What she doesn’t expect is to find herself being picked up by a passing trader from another world.


As the ruling King of Sarafin, Vox d’Rojah was expected to produce a son who would be joined in marriage with the first-born daughter of the King of Valdier. The problem was Vox had no intentions of having any sons, at least not in the near future. He was quite happy with the wide selection of females he had at his disposal. When he is captured by a ruthless Valdier royal and sold to a mining operation, the last thing he expected to find was his bride mate.


Vox isn’t sure which would be easier: fighting another war with the Valdier or capturing and holding on to the human female who is unlike anyone he has ever encountered before. Now, Vox has to escape back to his world while fighting pirates, traders, and Riley!


The King of Sarafin has met his match in Ms. Riley St. Claire from Earth. Now, he just needs to figure out a way to let her know he has chosen her as his Queen—and he has every intention of keeping her by his side forever.


A NY Times and USA Today bestselling author, the internationally acclaimed S.E. Smith presents a new story with her signature humor and unpredictable twists! Exciting adventure, hot romance, and iconic characters have won her a legion of fans. Over TWO MILLION books sold!

I felt as if I were living this story right alongside the characters. Smith`s writing is so vivid that everything comes to life with ease. Getting a look at Sarafin was both beautiful & fascinating. I liked how the different types of aliens were developed. Each is so different yet vividly and fully developed, giving you a sense of the universe at large. The combination of war & intrigue, politics and friendship added an extra layer to this one of a kind romance. The every forward moving plot was fast paced, keeping me captivated, while also telling a steamy tale of two characters that I really enjoyed. There was a vast array of not just personalities but also of outlooks on life in this cast of characters. Riley was a bit over the top at times. It made her hard to take seriously, but also made the story pricelessly comical. The way that Vox continually botches everything when around Riley humanized him and made him so much more loveable. The Riley/Vox dynamic is telling not just of the characters involved, but also of the vastly different cultres that they come from. This novel was a great start to Smith’s Sarafin series. I enjoyed reading it on its own and also the way that it ties back in to some of her other series, showing just how vast yet small the universe really is.

Loved it and I can't wait for more of this series and the connecting ones with the Dragon Shifter Aliens series being my favorite with this Big Cat Shifter series being a very close second (I wonder if they have done fanfiction for the four or more series of fantastic books).
