Publisher's Summary:

Notorious space traffickers abducted over 300 human women from Earth, but their ship crashed on an unknown planet before they reached their destination at the galactic marketplace. The five factions of Angondra welcomed the women with open arms in the hope of recovering from a plague that wiped out their female population.

Anna Evans and her sister Frieda end up settling with the Avitras faction. But when Frieda disappears, Anna finds herself caught in a dangerous bind between her conscience and loyalty to her chosen faction. When Aquilla, the Avitras Alpha, takes a massive and hard-bodied hostage Menlo from the Ursidrean faction, Anna can no longer support the Avitras she thought were her friends.

The curvy and self-sufficient Anna doesn't think twice to fight for what she believes in. She'll need a friend, or a supporter, but never a savior. Can Anna extricate herself in time to find new hope in the shifting sands of politics and revenge? Or will she, too, get sucked into darkness along with the rest of Angondra?

Members Reviews:

Really love Anna and Menlo's story

In Anna's quest to find her place with the Avitras, she finds she is at odds with her friend Penelope Ann and Aquilla the Alpha over Menlo's capture and treatment. I loved how she was drawn to Menlo and how their relationship formed. Very compelling and believable.

Some things we do because they are right, not because they are easy

Anna briefly appeared in the previous book, when her sister was searching for her, and that interaction gave Anna a clue about how her hosts treated members of the planet Angondra's other factions... but when the Avitras Alpha takes Menlo hostage, and treats him poorly, Anna comes face to face not only with the question of whether or not she can sit idly by and do nothing when such crimes are being committed, but also if she is trying to find a home with the wrong faction.

A fun, quick read about a strong independent woman willing to adapt to a new world and culture, even as she learns what aspects of her humanity she refuses to cast aside.

I received a copy of this story in exchange for an honest review, and finished it in Kindle Unlimited after it was published. Books/series like this are why I got Kindle Unlimited, I can devour a story a night, they weave together well, but in the case of this series the stories stand alone sufficiently I believe you could read them out of order, or miss one, and still understand what is going on, the others simply add depth and richness to this world.

I also appreciated this one starting with a prologue that helped capture some basic facts learned in the previous books.

*** spoiler alert**** i have really enjoyed this series

I really enjoyed the story of Anna and Menlo. I loved the sincerity in their connection.

At first I was getting concerned with the way Penelope Ann was turning a blind eye ... her addtitude reminded me of domestic violence victims ,or the woman who marries a man while they are still in jail. So I was happy in the end when she finally stood up to Aquilla.

As for the big stand off with Aquilla, I'm not sure what I was expecting... but I felt the story line was building to something more. Not that I wanted Penelope Ann to be alone or with out a mate. I'm just saying EVERYONE was in fear of where the need for Aquillas revenge would take them. They were prepared to die after all. In the end love does conquer all.
