Taming The Alien Overlord (Nova Brides, #1)


Thea Dane - 2021
    Now I'm stuck on Planet Xaxos with a seven-foot alien overlord. I don't know what's bigger, his muscles, his retractable horns or...his ego. Rone Azulim is used to being in charge. He lords over a whole planet and fleet of soldiers. My planet wants to form an alliance. He will only do so if I stay with him. As his mate. If Rone thinks I'm going to give up my independence to become his earthly arm candy, he's out of his mind. I don't care if his powerful voice and talented golden hands send thrills down my spine. It'll take more than his dominant ways to make me submit. But we have more problems besides seeing whose will is strongest. Another alien species is planning an attack on Xaxos' capital. If they're not stopped, Earth will be next. Can I find a way to get out of this mission? Or will I trust Rone enough to want to stay with him...forever?
