Searching for a Sci-Fi Romance read.

[Nathalia]

Ladies (and quite possibly gentlemen), I'm looking for a good Sci-Fi Romance read. I would love to have something cheap (free would be fantastic) with a good plot. I'm open to anything except YA books.

Thanks!

[A book away from an episode of hoarders]

The Brides of the Kindred series are about 2.99 each on kindle. Sci-Fi smut but I liked them.

Tiger of Talmare is a short Novella, but its free on amazon kindle right now and I quite enjoyed reading it.

The League series by Sherrilyn Kenyon are not (ever *sigh*) on sale but are some of my favorite Sci-Fi romance ever.



Brides of the Kindred:


The League:


I've also heard good things about Angela Knight's Warrior and Linnea Sinclair's Dock Five Universe, the first being Gabriel's Ghost. Both are on my tbr pile.

I'll be stalking this thread now, hoping for some more recs myself.

is a really fun series to read.

[Nathalia]

Thanks Cristina and Leslie! I'll definitely check out those selections. I was actually really interested in Touched by an Alien a few months ago, but I completely forgot about it!

[Debbie's Spurts (D.A.)]

Okay, a bit more dated (main character originally leaves home 'cause all the guys expect drudgery) but still with good story arc with some chuckles and some drama:

Restoree by Anne McCaffrey

And more Epic and recent, this series:



Science fiction genre in that is alien world but does read more of fantasy genre and almost enough romance for soap opera.

[~Leslie~]

Another one I read that was fun was .

And I agree with Cristina, The League series is amazing!

[Jai]

I just finished . It's of the "mars-needs-women" trope, and I enjoyed it well enough for what it was.

I love Melanie Rawn, but she's strictly fantasy.

Try Song of Scarabaeus, Shards of Honour, or Gabriel's Ghost. They are well-loved by fans of the genre.

[Nathalia]

Thank you so much everyone!

[Michelle]

Not in order.

I just finished Shards of Darkness and Barrayar, so good.

[Soulfire]

I really like Eve Langlais alien books. They're really light, sometimes shorter than I like but fairly cheap on amazon some are $3.99 and some are $2.99. She never fails to make me laugh.

I love Alien Huntress and the League of course..

Also recommend.

[Wan]

Also Time Hunters by Angela Knight.

[Katie]

Kinky but.. and the rest of the cat star chronicles.

[Nannie Katherine "MiMi"]

Kushiel's Chosen, Kushiel's Dart & Kushiel's Avatar by Jacquelene Carey. There are more in the series but I haven't gotten to them yet. All were at the public library. So they were free!

[Nannie Katherine "MiMi"]

Another free one is: Insatible by Meg Cabot. Also from the library. It's the Insatiable Series.

I fell in love with Aral, LOL.

[Carolyn F.]

I loved series too. A really good one.

Keeper of the Rings is a $2.99 ebook so that shouldn't hurt your wallet too much. If you like, the Light-Years series runs around $4 per title: Circle of Light, Moonlight Rhapsody, and Starlight Child. These are my titles along with Silver Serenade. My favorite authors in this genre are Linnea Sinclair and Susan Grant.

[Susan]

Catherine Azaro for sure. Very sexy with an interesting story. I like Anne Mcaffery, too.

[Carolyn F.]

Susan I'm searching for Catherine Azaro but can't find anything. Is her last name spelled right?

[Ty]

I think she means Catherine Asaro

[Michelle]

i loved the league series and i got a freebee from luarann dohner a while back and it was pretty good. I wish i could remember were i got the freebee from. It was on one of my freebee spree days when i decide i dont have enough to read and troll all the ebook sights and snatch up every romance freebee they offer. lol

What about The Beastmaster series by Andre Norton? The first 2 books are strickly action/adventure, but books 3 and 4 are definately romance. First book Beastmaster, then Lord of Thunder, then Beastmaster's Ark and finally Beastmaster's Circus. There is a 5th book--Beastmaster's Search, but its NOT a romance. (Sorry, my GR is acting up and won't let me link anything.)

A semi-sci-fi is the 2176 series. The Legend of Banzai Maguire by Susan Grant (#1), The Shadow Runners by Liz Maverick (#2), The Power of Two by Patti O'Shea (#3), Days of Fire by Kathleen Nance (#4) and The Scarlet Empress by Susan Grant (#5). Yes, 4 different authors, but its all set in the same world.

Susan Grant has 2 other sci-fi series. Since my links aren't working, I'll just leave it at her name.

[Nancy]

I also like Catherine Asaro and Elizabeth Moon.

[Jon]

Undisclosed - Travis Marshall and Jayde

[Oleander]

I haven't read it yet, but I have the Rystani series by Susan Kearney on my shelf. The first one is The Challenge.

[Anna]

I don't like to self-promote, but I genuinely think you might like my book :). It's a steamy sci-fi romance, and the reviewers have all generally commented that the plot is interesting/unique/etc.

[Ezi]

I recommend Kevin J. Anderson's Saga of the Seven Sun series. Excellent series. SciFi and Romance in abundance. This series should be a movie!

[C.E.]

Only Human by Chris Reher - just finished it and loved it. Only Human

Ghost in the Machine is a newly published SFR that is going to be a series
Ghost in the Machine

[Tracey]

All of Ann Aguirre's novels are very good.

[Michelle]

Love the Dominion Series by S.E. Lund. A young vampire hunter is seduced by 800 year old twin vampire brothers. Although there is more to the book than romance, it certainly has plenty of steamy scenes and definitely isn't YA. Dominion is .99 and Ascension is 3.99. Retribution, book 3, will be released December 11. Can't wait!

Dominion Ascension

[Lynda]

OMG! have to get The Empress' New Clothes This is the first book in the series !, I loved it :-) very futuristic/erotica.

[♦Jennifer♦]

The Psy-changeling series by Nalini Singh is a really good mix of sci-fi and paranormal romance.

[Emily]

try the challenge by susan kearney i loved it

[Debi]

Alien Huntress series by Gena Showalter is a fun series. You can find free at library or find some deals on used books on ebay.

[Kiersten]

These are a bit paranormal sci-fi

[Alana ~ The Book Pimp]

[Jenny]

This is more futuristic than Sci Fi but it's definitely romance.

I've read the first two and really enjoyed them. Love Lauren Dane's writing.
The other series that is more futuristic with romance playing a small part it's more a mystery series is J. D. Robb's (Nora Roberts) In Death series.
I have read most there is alot about 40 or so but they are well written and I really like the characters. Eve and Roarke are great along with alot of the secondary characters, but they are definitely a mystery series before it's a romance.

[~Leslie~]

I read this recently after being recommended to me and it was very good. Really interesting characters and world.
And Alana, I have the first Joss Ware book but didn't realize it was Sci-fi romance.

[Alana ~ The Book Pimp]

It's like a mash-up Sci-Fi/Paranormal/Romance/Distopian

[Alana ~ The Book Pimp]

Aliens meets End of the 'Modern' world meets zombies meets psychic/parnamoral powers. Kick butt heroine, lots of world building in book one, so the first half is slow, but worth it in my opinion

[Jaime]

I second Linnea Sinclair's books and Joss Ware's books!

Reviews, tags, and "likes" very much appreciated :).

Chris Reher just released a prequel to her Only Human


Its called Catalyst. I was lucky enough to be a beta reader for it, and I actually think its better than Only Human, and it can be read as a stand alone:


You can read the first 4 chapters of my SFR/Space Opera, Ghost in the Machine, on Amazon

If you don't mind some intense BDSM mixed into a sci-fi romance story, I just finished a book by Kayla Stonor not too long ago, and I really enjoyed it.

Here's my 5 star review on "Under by Treaty" from Kayla Stonor: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

[Travis]

I recently read and reviewed a pretty good SCIFI erotic romance novel with very heavy BDSM overtones.

Basically, a man who is a general on earth, who's been fighting against a humanoid-alien invasion force for several years, is forced into a position where he must submit to the enemy to save Earth.

The indecent proposal comes from an alien ambassador badass chick, smoking hot Domme with wicked combat skills. She signs a treaty with Earth on the condition that the general submits to a "joining" with the Alien queen. If he is unsuccessful at submitting voluntarily, the treaty is broken and Earth will be stomped by a superior invasion force.

The story is a harsh erotic romance tale of an Alpha male who is forced/willingly submits to his captor to save planet earth.

IT IS VERY INTENSE.

I enjoyed it, even though I am a guy, and it's harsh reading for a guy. FEMDOM.
