You'd think being abducted by aliens would be the worst thing that could happen to me. And you'd be wrong. Because now, the aliens are having ship trouble, and they've left their cargo of human women - including me - on an ice planet.
And the only native inhabitant I've met? He's big, horned, blue, and really, really has a thing for me...

The hype around this series really blew up in the last few months. One of the book bloggers I follow has read this entire series and loved every minute. And then I saw it mentioned in news articles and other blogs. A friend sent me the links as a bit of a joke and I took up the challenge fo reading the first book. I sped through it (it’s not that long), and really did enjoy it. This definitely a NSFW book. The sex is explicit and often. The book opens with a pretty explicit rape scene. But once you get past the first section, the tone lightens up a bit and we get moving with the main romance. Georgie and Vektal are fun characters and a lot of action and movement is packed into their short story. This was a nice break from my more serious hard science fiction. I might actually keep reading this series.
