Before I can think better of it, my tongue sneaks out over my lips to scent my surroundings. But all I can smell is her. And I’ve never scented anything so delicious in my life. MINE. It’s all but a convulsion that tears through my body. What? No! No, this cannot be happening! My denials are weak, though. Far louder is the cry: Mine, mine, mine, mine, MINE, MINE.

Alien Goddess: Sarah
Zina Wes - 2019
Free-spirited Sarah is anything but diplomatic. But to end the war between humans and an alien race called the Makaen, she’s persuaded to accept the position of ambassador, which requires bonding to a Makaen warrior and living with him on his planet. Sarah is far from enthusiastic about marrying a dominant sex-crazed brute. Furthermore, a bonded female is supposed to be demure and obedient. Words that definitely aren't in her translator. Kealen Bakan, commander of the most powerful warship of the Makaen's military, agrees to bond to one of his former enemies out of a sense of duty. His hate for her species burns deep inside, but after touching her he knows one thing for sure: the human female belongs to him, and he's never going to let her go. He soon experiences that fighting in a war might be less dangerous than handling this stubborn female. Their first contact is electrifying- literally, and raises the question of whether they were brought together by divine intervention.

Sarazen's Claim
Isabel Wroth - 2016
This book is PART OF A SERIES. Not a HEA and not a Cliffhanger...somewhere in between. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------One hundred and fifty years ago the most powerful countries of Earth built and launched five ships. Ships meant to carry what remained of humanity out into the space beyond their known galaxy to find a new home. As a third generation botanist, it never occurred to Clary Starborn that she might some day be in charge of anything other than her little lab. That changed the day their ship was attacked by an alien species straight out of myth. ----------As commander of the Sarazen armada, Tarek had seen some poor excuses for spacefaring vessels. The one currently being attacked by the Na'ah was to date, the worst. So primitive in its design, Commander Tarek was fascinated it had even survived the harsh vacuum of space. Or the time it had taken to launch it. The species was unfamiliar to him, but initial scans suggested the beings within here somewhat intelligent. Though the ship was outside Sarazen territory, it was his duty to eradicate the Na'ah wherever he encountered them. He had not anticipated that by his actions, the course of his life would be forever changed. By a soft, delicate being who studied flowers and trees. One scent, one touch, was all it took to be Claimed.
