There are aliens, a good bit of action, characters that are quirky and loveable and stolen artifacts. All of this works well together and this is a fun book. I'm giving this 3 stars because I didn't love it but I definitely see the appeal and it is well written even if it wasn't a favorite for me.

Vikk is so sweet and just wants to make sure Mara & Finley are taken care of. I liked the Vraithean planet and how the portals work, etc. I did feel that from the time meeting Vikk and finding out he was an alien to immediately going to his planted was a bit quick considering the length of the book. I feel the author could have taken a bit more time to form some sort of relationship there.
My issue with this book was the different POV's. I thought there were way too many and the book bounced back and forth too much. I think the book would have flowed a bit better if it stayed with the two (maybe three) main POV's and didn't switch around as much.
Overall I did enjoy the story and the way they dealt with all of the issues. The spice was really good and the HEA was great.

Marlene is somewhat forgettable and the story was somewhat boring if you have read the other books because it repeats a lot of older information. I did like that Marlene was so bold and initiated the relationship with Zennek. Fun & sexy as all Ruby’s books are and of course the happy ending as she always does. ...more
