Alien Stolen

Zyanthan Warriors #7

by Julie K. Cohen

A Mail Order Bride. An Assassination Plot. And one Warrior who’s lost his way.

Anya
Anya left Earth for a better future. She never even had the chance of being matched to a husband. Lucky her, she was in a batch of women who got sold off as slaves. She’ll fight with everything she has, though. Especially against the beast, a blue male with horns and a reputation for buying and selling women. Except he doesn’t buy her. He steals her.

Nothing about this guy adds up. He promises to release her after she helps him with a job. The beast, a.k.a. Azokk, is not what he seems. He pretends to be a trader in coalition space, but he’s using her, in more ways than one. He plans to gift her to the king of Grudan. Hell no. Except he doesn’t give her a choice. . .just another promise to take her with him when he leaves the planet of warmongers. He didn’t tell her she’d be caught up in an assassination of their king first.

Can she trust him enough to do as he asks, or is he just using her?

Azokk
Azokk changed more than his name when he left Zyan to join the Coalition after the war destroyed his family. He changed who he was. A necessity to blend in with the Coalition.

After six years living among the coalition, he has a mission that requires the use of a human female. Now he’s flying to Grudan with a stolen human on his ship. He plans to sacrifice her. This is not the behavior of a Zyanthan Warrior. Then again, he’s no longer the male he used to be. And this female, Anya, stirs both of his c*cks.

He has one shot at completing his mission. One shot at saving his sholani. And no chance of keeping her for himself.

Except she seems to think otherwise. She’s a fighter, a warrior in her own right.

Maybe with her by his side, he’ll find a way of surviving his mission after all.

What a good ending to the series!!

Finally the last of the covert plans of the ZDC are coming to fruition. Everything they've done in the last 6 years has lead to this last mission. Jaizon "Azokk" has lived a lonely existence for 6 years, leaving everything behind and building his reputation with the Coalition. It's been hard but he'd do anything to avenge Zyan and bring down the Grud, the Coalition, and the Brotherhood all in one fell swoop.

Jaizon's been tasked with assassinating the King of the Grud. He has an opportunity for a meeting with the King but he needs a gift. The gift needs to be rare and special....a human female. Jaizon rescues Anya from the slaver's market to use as a pawn in his plans. Though he's not sure he can bring himself to sacrifice an innocent female when the fate of his planet and others hang in the balance, especially once he realizes Anya is his Sholani.

Anya entered the Bride Lottery to leave Earth and protect her brothers. She never got to her destination, instead her whole group got sent to the slave market to sell. Anya is no shrinking violet. So when she's rescued from the slavers by "Azzok the Beast" for unknown reasons, Anya isn't going down without a fight. She can't let her guard down but she can't understand or deny the pull she feels towards her captor. Will Anya survive being the sacrificial lamb? Can she convince Jaizon they can have a future together?

I loved this series ender. I loved these two. Jaizon had sacrificed and dealt with so much. He was such a sweet and tortured soul. Haunted by what he had to do undercover. Anya was tough and plucky. She sees underneath to the real warrior and person Jaizon truly is. They are drawn to each other and vow to fight until the end and do whatever it takes to make it out alive. This was angsty and had me in tears a few times. I loved seeing everyone's hard work through each of the books and how they contributed to the masterplan. All the pieces fell into place, but there were still many twists and turns getting to the climax of the overarching story to see if it all worked and if the payoff was worth it.

I am so excited and can't wait for Dekar's story in the new spinoff series!

I love it! I had hoped Quinn's brother would show up & he did. Although right now he is known as Azokk working with the coalition. He believes all his family is dead & this mission he will not survive. He steals Lucy from a slave market. Melikk had a tracker on her to keep her safe. When they catch up with him on another planet, Azokk or Jaizon sees his cousin Torin who is there to help rescue Lucy, Melikk's heartmate. Jaizon learns he still has Quinn, a younger brother who is still looking for him & 2 cousins alive. Torin & his brother, Mavok, whom he had believed all died in the war. He tells them he still needs Lucy for his mission. Which is refused, she suggests he go back for Anya. If he explains truthfully what he requires of her, Lucy is sure she will be willing to help. He decides Anya is probably the better one to use, she looked stronger. He finds out Torins part of the mission was to destroy the slave planet's defense system they were just on. Unfortunately they couldn't get in. Jaizon has the override codes for the system & lodes them into Torins database so he can do his part of the mission, then Jaison will be able to do his. He says he will try to find everyone when he is through & they part ways. He goes back for Anya & finds out she has been sold. Her buyer is still shopping, so he goes to get her. As he goes to get her, he notices how she fights off one of the guards trying to get to feely with her. She has him rolling on the ground howling when she sees Azokk. His cover is well know & feared as planned. She tries to get away but he gets her & steals her. About the time he is making for his ship, explosions go off & he knows Torin has done has his part, now it's his turn. They get on his ship & puts her in his cabin with clothes & points out where the cleanser & gallery is. He goes to navigate the ship. While she is wondering why a slaver didn't throw her in a cage she gets cleaned up. He finds her later & tries to explain without breaking his cover he is not really with the coalition. He is a freelance trader. All the women he has bought has been dropped off on a safe planet & given their freedom. In exchange, they have kept quiet to keep him safe. She doesn't know what to believe. So far he hasn't harmed her, & seems like a nice person, but she has heard horrible things. The more time he spends with her the more certain he is, she is his heartmate. What he had needed her for, he does not want to do. He can't not do it! If he fails Everyone is doomed to the Coalition & Grud taking over everywhere. He informs her he needs her help. He has told her she is his heartmate. Now he has to tell her what is going on. She keeps telling him to walk away from the coalition. He has told her about Kaja, his first heartmate & their unborn child, killed during the war. She keeps getting mixed signals! She is pretty sure he is an undercover spy for Zhan, but he won't say any more than he has. Now he has told her, she was to be a gift to the king of the Grud. It was to help him get an audience with the king so he could kill him for the coalition. Now she is sure she is with the coalition. He tries to explain more but can't. She still trusts him when he says he won't leave her behind & she agrees to help him. He takes her with him to be given to the king. After the king accepts her, Jaizon is sent to one of the Guards to do buisness, not with the king as planned. When they seem to be being lead down into tunnels he asks to speak to the slave so she will not mar his reputation. He gives her a knife, & tells her he can't kill the king like he planned & asks her to do it. She is shocked & upset but takes the knife to do what she can. When she is taken to the king's room, one the guards decides to try her out first. She ends up killing him. The king comes in & sees the guard with the knife sticking out of him while she is getting dressed. She hears Jaizon's ship has taken off & tells them Azzok gave her the knife. She was to kill the king. The coalition is finding him too much of a problem. They throw her in the pit. She manages to climb the wall, she did wall climbing in her brother's gym. When she reached the top a guard tries to knock her back down. Azokk throws him in & pulls her. He gets them into the forest & finds them a cave to hide in so he can wait & try to talk to her. He explains he sent his ship off so they would think he left, it is hiding behind a moon, & will be back to get them. She tells him she failed him. He tells her no. He killed the king, they played as well as could be expected. She told them just what they needed to hear. She is not to happy that Jaizon didn't think she would kill the king but left her to do it. He tells her how it was to go. He says now the Grud should attack the coaltion & their alliance should be broken. They see hundreds of ships take off. His ship picks them up. They go to a planet he learned Torin & Quinn used for information & messages. He leaves a message for Quinn. About the he sees they are being followed, gives Anya his blaster & tells her to run for his ship. She goes back & sees him taken by a couple of Grud & tries to find the Zhanthian she thought she saw earlier. She sees him but he is not who she thinks he is. So she is about to shoot him when Ivy, his heartmate stops her. He comes around, they are talking & when she hears him mention Torin's name she asks about him. She finds out she is looking at Quinn, Jai's brother they were looking for. She tells them what happened. They find his in the fighting pits. Quinn & Anya are able to get him untied & out of the pit. Out in the open she sees him drugged & snatched by 2 other aliens, they give chase only to see him thrown into a lake that hase razor sharp crystals in it's bed & a suction tunnel. She & Quinn go to Jai's ship. A day or two later Quinn comes back to the ship with the aliens that had killed Jai, dragging a beat up, bandaged Zhanthian with them. They believe it to be Torin. When they get him into the med bay Anya discovers it is Jai. The two aliens had switched him for a dead body when they threw him ito the killer lake. They get him healed up. No one happier than her to see him safe. He is happy to go see family, although he learns that Quinn believes both Anya & Jai need to join a relocation program to keep them safe for a while. He doesn't like it, but after about 6 months of hopping planets, he decides to agree. They will settle on Mav's planet & help Quinn's program. He will be one of the marshals to help watch over the other people. It's great!

I hate when a great series ends. This as a fast-paced that kept me reading until the very end. Plenty of action, adventure, danger, drama, twists, suspense, survival, mystery, strength, pain, fear, passion, and love. Anya signs up to be a mail order Bride. But she never makes it as she get sold as a slave. She fights hard and ends up getting sold plenty of times. Azokk (Jaizon) needs a human female for a plan to destroy the Gurd and the Coalition. As Anya creates a distraction Azokk grabs' her and takes off. Thus this is the beginning of their adventure and the attraction they have for each other.

This was such an exciting read ;D I loved how strong the characters were, and how deep they were, which made for a more complex relationship. Well written, their adventures had emotions, stubbornness, drama, danger, action and love. It was a great conclusion to the series and I'm well satisfied with how everything finished. There's so much to enjoy in this series and I can't wait to see what the author gets up to next ;D

[Aka · Rating 2 out of 5]

2/2.5 stars

I jumped into this series, and although it's readable/understandable........I'm guessing that Azokk - made a lot of appearances in the previous books, and that's like the cameo character who is finally getting his happy ending/mate. Azokk isn't referred to that name despite the summary so I first got confused with what was really going to be referred to as his name, Jaizon.

I didn't like Anya. She was a firey FL - who wanted to fight back, but it wasn't always logical and she changed her mind really quickly fast whenever it came to Azokk. For example she took his shower, but still wanted to get back into her dirty slave smock... eventually caves in... but goes to sleep in the bed. A lot of her choices seem halfway there in logic, so I couldn't like her. I did think Jaizon made the best of everything he could, so I didn't have any issues with him at all. It's conflicting since you want to feel bad for her at times, but when you remember she was an a situation where she signed herself up to be a mail order bride (and it just went really bad) - it's like...Anya is aware.

Steam is medium...high? But the leadup was also weird since again Anya is not wanting to be doing this with Jaizon...but turned on. So... there's a back and forward dance, which then leads to the deed.

I would be interested to read more from this series and definitely do think the writing was good and detailed enough PLUS the steam was good. .However I just did not like Anya, but at least she makes Jaizon happy.

Honestly the more books in this series I read, the more I love it. This is by far one of the best alien romance series's I've ever read, the rich lore behind this fascinating race is absolutely incredible. The Zyanthean race is full of intriguing history, their planet and it's backstory is beautiful to read about. In this book it's Anya and Jaizon, these two are quite the pair. The way they flirt then go cold, it's so maddening you want to lock them in the cabin and say sort it out. The switching perspectives is my favourite part, seeing how both characters feel about what's going on around them and how they see each other is very helpful. It's also hilarious in places, these two really are perfect for each other. With each book in this series, we learn more about the race that is taking over the world. If incredible and extremely sexy aliens with an interesting twist is something you love, then this collection is one you definitely should read. This will be a story that you will never forget, and hopefully love as much as I do. I couldn't find anything in this book or the entire series that I didn't enjoy, it truly is a one of a kind amazing series.

Jaizon has been lost in space so to speak since the attack that took his family from him. Family was his compass and his guide without it he is drifting and merely existing day to day. He has forgotten a lot of what he was but he have never fallen so far as to no longer be honourable. He is fghting but in his mind he is fighting for ghosts. He has his life's mission that he will not allow to be put off for any reason, not even finding his sholani. His most bittersweet moment. He was always drawn to Anya and he thought it was just because she has fire, so when his plan demands a human, he has no choice but to break her out of her cell at the slave market. Anya has no reason to trust Jaizon as he was the one who took her friend Lucy originally, never to be seen again and yet for all his size, gruffness and demeanour there is just something about him that makes her feel safe. He does over step a couple of boundaries at their first meeting but it is done openly, without intent and without malice. If only she could get him to tell her the turth about everything she is convinced that he is not truly, at heart where it matters, the kind of male he shows himself to be. Anya quickly comes his anchor and his north star, can he give that up? What of the mission, can they both survive?
You can feel in Jai the desolation of years alone, believing everything loved and treasured to be gone forever. You so hope and wish for him to find peace. You do wish Anya was a little less impulsive with the running away too but then.. if you were either of these two would you do in those circumstances?

🔥 “You will want to keep that mouth closed, my sweet Anya, unless you’d like me to fill it.”
~~~
Jaizon, a.k.a Azokk, the Beast is one fearsome male! He’s dangerous, brooding, strong, confident, arrogant, possessive and willing to do everything to complete his mission. But there’s more to him than meets the eye. He’s a protective and honorable warrior and a kind and caring male. And he’s such a flirt! I was very intrigued by him in the previous book but now - I love him!

And Anya is the perfect match for him! That woman has so much fire and courage. I loved her intelligence and her strength to fight and survive everything life throws her way. She’s so awesome!

Everything that happened between them was so great. They had a really rough start and had to go through a lot. It took a lot of time for Anya to trust Jaizon and Jai was plagued by so much guilt for putting her through so much. But I loved that she saw the wonderful male he truly was and stood by his side no matter what. And I loved their flirting and banter. They were so great together and, after everything they went through, more than deserved to find happiness, family and love with each other.

In addition, I loved that we got to meet again all the couples from the previous books.

Overall, the story is a fantastic end to a really awesome series! It’s filled with fast-paced action, danger, twists, drama, steamy romance and wonderful characters.

I loved it and cannot wait for the spin-off!

This is a beautiful and heartwarming story. An absolute must read and I was hooked from the start. There’s danger, love, action, abduction and an assassination. The characters are wonderful as is the storyline.

Jaizon has been undercover working for the coalition. When his zyan command gave him a mission he knew he would have to make some sacrifices. He never in a million years thought one of them would be his sholani, his fated mate. He’s on the last leg of his mission and he needs a human female to get in. After releasing Lucy he goes back for the other human slave, Anya. It takes some time and convincing but Anya agrees to help, and Jai promises not to leave her. Along the way he confesses that she is his sholani and they get a lot closer. When it comes time for him to complete his mission everything that could go wrong does and they escape by the skin of their teeth. When they contact Torin to help them they are found by the enemy and Jai is taken, when Anya sees Jai thrown into a magic lake and blasted into the atmosphere she is heartbroken. Jai isn’t dead though, he’s had some help from some….friends, kinda. Now the coalition and the grud are at war with each other but Jai and Anya are not safe yet and they may never be. It’s going to take a fierce but headstrong Anya to convince her hard headed warrior to do something that may mean being with his family once again.

'Alien Stolen by Julie Cohen is the seventh book in her Zyanthan Warriors series and tells the story of Jaizon (Azokk), a former Zyanthan warrior, and Anya, a human female. Anya has left Earth for a better future but before she gets matched she is sold as a slave. Azokk joined the Coalition after his family was killed in the war. However, having to blend in has changed him. He kidnaps Anya for a mission but she is a formidable captive and fights him along the way. Azokk begins to admire his little captive and they start to experience a mutual attraction.

Ms. Cohen has written an intriguing addition to her series. Although this book is part of a series it may be read as a standalone. This story has wonderful characters, fabulous dialogue, and great world building. The connection between Azokk and Anya is both sweet and compassionate. I like how Anya helps Azokk find his way back. I enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone who likes a strong heroine and the alien that loves her.

A fabulous addition to the series!💖

This is Jai and Anya's story we met both of these strong and intense characters in the last book. Jai has spent the last several years on an undercover mission deep within enemy territory. It has changed him and he worries he's not the honorable Zyanthan warrior he used to be. He knows he'll do whatever he has to make his mission succeed. He goes back too the slave market and steals a human female he saw there previously. Anya just wanted to leave earth for a better life find a male, marry and have a family. Instead she was sold as a slave. When Jai takes her Anya is ready to fight. What she gets is a male who feels honorable bugs whose actions are questionable. These two must come together and learn to trust each other so they can bring down the Gurd and the coalition and end the fighting for ever! This is suspenseful, action packed and hot! Highly recommend and I can't wait to see what she comes up with next.🔥💖🔥💖💖🔥💖🔥🔥🔥💖💖🔥🔥💖💖🔥🔥💖💖🔥🔥💖💖🔥🔥💖💖🔥💖🔥💖🔥💖🔥💖🔥🔥💖💖🔥🔥💖🔥💖🔥💖💖🔥🔥💖💖💖💖🔥🔥🔥

I've been looking forward to this book since we say these two in the last one. I couldn't wait to see the two of them together. I don't think you have to read the books in order it's still a fun adventure and I've only read the last two. It is probably worth reading a few others in order to follow the overall arc and to recognize the other characters.

Anya is such a great character. She is intelligent and resourceful and strong. She handles everything with more resilience than most would. Azokk/Jai is complicated but I really loved him. He is always trying to do the right thing even if his tactics are a bit messy. Once he meets Anya he becomes even more torn. Their relationship is complex because of the situation they find themselves in and because they both have strong, stubborn personalities. It is such a great time to see them together.

Anya signed up to be a mail order Bride, to help her two brothers with her sign on bonus, and to escape earth. Unfortunately, she ends up getting sold as a slave instead. But her mama didn’t raise a quitter! She has fought and created trouble the entire time, resulting in her being returned to the slave auction again and again. Seems the alien men want docile slaves.

Azokk, or Jaizon, needs a human female for his part in an elaborate plan to bring down the Grud and the Coalition. Any human female will do and Anya is the only one in the slave auction. When she is bought by a cruel ship captain, Azokk takes advantage of a distraction Anya created and steals her. Why waste good credits if you don’t need to? Thus begins a harrowing adventure for the two. Can these two stop fighting the attraction to each other long enough to come up with a plan to survive?

Azzok steals Anya from slavers, but the proposition that he gives her isn't much better. She knows his reputation, but at every turn he confuses her. Is he the "Beast", or something else. He's been gone so long from Zyan that he's forgotten the warrior that he is and Anya is making him remember, just as he recognizes her as his Sholani. He's done so many things since leaving Zyan, including what he's about to do, will she be able to forgive him? Does he even deserve her? Anya knows that there's more to him than meet the eye and she's determined to see it through if only because of how he makes her feel. So much action and intrigue that I was almost disappointed when the story came to an end. I loved the characters and the worldbuilding. Can't wait to see what's next for this author. A really great read!

Azokk/Jaizon lives in a sort of eternal liminal state. Externally, he's left Zyan and his previous life/identity behind and become a trader who will affiliate with the coalition/Grud. Internally, he's still fighting undercover for Zyan, but never intends to fully return to his real life.
Anya sees through him pretty quickly, throwing a wrench in his original plan. He still plans to go through with his final mission, but not with the original plan. They'll have to come up with their own rescue/escape mission on the spot. This creates an extra level of excitement and anticipation, and an extra level of angst!
Azokk/Jaizon comes off a bit like an overly-angsty leading male character, but initially it's certainly not without reason. But even after he's presented with reasons to find himself again, he needs a little help processing that fact.

This is book 7 and also the last book in the Zyanthan Warriors series. It is the story of Azokk (Jaizon) and Anya. Anya has signed up as a mail order bride, to help her two brothers with her sign up bonus and escape from Earth. Unfortunately, she is sold into slavery instead. Azokk (Jaizon) needs a human woman for his part in an elaborate plan to pit the Grud and the Coalition against each other in order to bring them down. Any human woman will do it and Anya is the only one in the slave auction. It's a well-written alien companion story full of action, suspense, steamy scenes and great characters that are gradually introduced in each book, with frequent mentions of the previous main characters. Every couple has their happily ever after.

His Final Mission ? . . .

Anya is a strong, caring woman. She wanted to help her brothers with the money that would be paid for her becoming a mail order Bride. Instead, she gets sold as a slave. She was not a sweet a shy slave, however, and she is too much for any buyer to keep.

Azokk (“Jaizon”) working undercover has a plan to carry out. He needs to steal a human female to create animosity between the Grud and the Coalition. So he steals Anya when she distracts the cruel captain who bought her. In their time together, Jaizon will discover a very nice piece of information. Can he at last find happiness? Will he fight beside this brave warrior woman, the two of them working together for their survival? Will he regain his own honor as a Zyanthan Warrior to survive his mission?

Last book in a series


Sad that this series has come to an end but what an exciting it it is If you havent read any of the earlier books you will have issed a lot but can read this if you are a sci fi fan and go back to fill in any gaps with the earlier books . When living a false life undercover becomes your " norm " how do you know what is right any longer . Strong very feisty female lead and a physically strong but distressed hero that is struggling with the loss of all he holds dear including his own honour . Emotional and challenging a brilliant story that you will be compelled to read till the very last word

I loved this book! An excellent end to this series. I'm sad that it's over, but I'm super excited for the new spin-off series. I loved Jaizon. A part of him died when his family was killed. He left Zyan, changed his name, and spent six years working and living in Coalition space. He wondered if the Coalition had broken him. He steals Anya from the slave market and intends to use her to complete his mission. Anya is a fighter- both in spirit and in physical capability. I really liked her and thought she was perfect for Jaizon. Watching them together, it was like she woke up a part of him that had been snuffed out. I loved watching them grow closer. This book was an adventure. It had action, suspense, danger, and romance. I loved it. 5 stars.

The conclusion to the Zyanthan Warriors series and very a fitting ending. When Jaizon's family was killed, he changed his name and has spent six years working, living, and spying in Coalition space. He fears he is losing himself and his morality. He takes Anya from the slave market and decides to use her to complete his mission. Anya is a spirited fighter and is willing to fight for what she believes in. Jai starts to have second thoughts about simply using her and asks for her help instead. I loved how well these two came together, the chemistry, the steam, and action. What a great ending and I am ready for the spin-off series.

I enjoyed this Alien romance with all of the characters. The two main characters were Anya and Azokk.

Anya is a human woman that has been captured and is being sold of as a slave. She was on the way to becoming a mail order bride when this happened. She has been fighting them. So when a blue alien brakes her out she not sure what he will do to her.

Azokk is an uncovered and has changed his name. He on a mission and needs a human woman to help him the finish his mission. So he stolen a human from the tradesmen slaves.

This was a fun story to read. It has action , drama, and adventure within. It also had a few laughs and giggles too. It was also steamy at time.

I received a complimentary copy via Booksprout. This is my honest unbiased opinions.

Loved this story about Anya and Jaizon/Azokk. Anya wanted a better life and signed as a mail order bride. She got betrayed by Bu'Tay and sold as a slave when Jaizon steals her from her new owner. Jaizon is undercover as Azokk getting info about the Coalition. Jaizon needs a human woman to infiltrate on the planet Grudan to do business with a client which Anya agrees. What occurs between them on this mission was an engaging story with strong characters with steamy chemistry, lots of action, and twist and turns that kept me flipping the pages in this ARC that I received to read and review via Booksprout.

The hero seems kind of cold from the other interactions in the previous book, but he kind of grows on you. The heroine is a strong and calculating woman who has a great amount of determination that will not let her panic. They have a hard road to go before they get their happily ever after which includes family and friends that the hero thought were all dead. I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next.

There is action as soon as you start reading the first chapter. It is a standalone book but it’s definitely better if you read the series. Unfortunately I think I missed two books but either way I will still be able to catch up with what was going on. Well written. Explainations of a lot what happened between the books briefly but still staying on point with the two main characters. This warrior Realizes that the female human that he stole was his heart mate not beat for the king. For the good of the planet this adventure with Anaya and Jaizon was exciting. No cliffhanger

Great Premise for Last in Series

I liked the story and the characters. There was an over arching plotline that culminated in this book. But honestly, I was disappointed. SPOILER One of the goals in the mission was to kill the Grud king. I was looking forward to reading about how that would be accomplished. But we got no details, just a statement that it was done. Why? To me that was the highlight of the book, that and the resulting war. There was a lot of redundancy in the romance portion of the book, with the same fears and expectations repeated numerous time. Some of that could easily have been deleted to make room for a critical action scene. In my opinion, anyways.

This is a alien sci-fi romance with Jaizon and Anya, I loved Anya she was a spitfire and Jaizon thought so as well but she would rather kick his butt and I agree that these Zyanthan warriors were very stubborn it’s their way or no way at all. Jaizon saved Anya from the slavers well he more liked grabbed and then drugged her and when Anya woke up well let’s just say that she wasn’t happy with him. I’m loving this series with these warriors saving their mates, this is a fantastic read and I highly recommend this book it’s well worth the read.

This interesting and intense Book 7 in the Zyanthan Warriors Book Series is an entertaining Alien romance story with engaging and uniue characters. This story was loaded with chemistry, steam, action, danger, love and an HEA. These characters were well written with great interactions, interesting histories and great personalities. This is a steamy Mail Order Bride Romance with a few twists along the way. A must read

These aliens are not very good spies. And are terrible at planning. I mean, this guy had years to prepare for the mission, but he knew nothing of the Grud? C'mon! and he changed plans more often than he changed clothes! Kind of incompetent as a spy. Things worked out because of sheer luck (or because the plot said so, anyway). And again with these Zyanthans and their disregard for their mates, every single one of these warriors wanted to ditch their mates on some planet to never see them again, and then get hurt when the women think they don't love them. Go figure.

This is book 7 in the Zyanthan Warriors series. It's Jaizon(Azokk) and Anya's story. It's a well written sci-fi alien fated mates story with action, suspense, steamy scenes and great characters. It was also good to catch up with some of the other characters from the rest of the series. Looking forward to reading more books from Julie Cohen.

This is supposed to be the last book in the Zyanthan Warriors series and it’s all about Jaizon(Azokk) and Anya’s story. These two characters are both strong-willed and fighting for their time together. The mission they go on is full of action and suspense. Their fated mates love story is a wonderful read and I can’t wait to see what else Julie Cohen has to write!
