Unexpected


Annalise Alexis - 2019
    Grouchy. Mine. That is, if we don't die a horrible death first.  Working on the fringes of space wasn't exactly how I pictured my life, but it paid the bills. My days were routine. Safe even. Until they weren't. When I'm rudely awakened because an incoming ship won't answer our comms, the last thing I expect to find is a race of aliens long assumed extinct. No one's seen the Illusians for over a century, and yet here they are. Bruised. Battered. And threatening to kick my butt. I broke the rules and let them in. So sue me. You'd have done the same thing if you'd seen their smoking hot leader. They're vicious, beautiful, and running from an enemy hell bent on enslaving them. I should walk away. But my boss is planning something that's almost certainly illegal, and besides…what else am I supposed to do when Ren of Illusia claims me as his mate? Just let him go without a fight? Hell no. This book is intended for mature audiences only.  For the grown and sexy only. This book contains strong language, sexual content and mention of sexual abuse.
