Hunted

Love this series of books as they are action packed, entertaining and have the findings of newly mated/matched couples. This particular story revolves around Quinn and Niobe and the trials they endure while coming to terms with being mated. At their first meeting Niobe saves Quinn from being integrated by Nexus before knowing he is her mate. Quinn a Hunter, and Niobe a Vice Admiral, are having issues with how their mating is affecting their careers along with the continued threat of the Hive, which is a constant in each book. There are struggles between the separate designations of job/duty versus mate but a final solution is found. This is a well written story with great characters and plots. It is also a great series and I would highly recommend each story as they are great stand alone books but at they same time they are still part of a series. I would highly recomnend this book as a great read.

Another fantastic entry in this series. A vice admiral in the coalition half human have Everian Niobe is no one to underestimate. When she is convinced by some of her human friends on the Colony to bride test she does not think she will be matched. When she is immediately matched and sent to meet Elite Hunter Quinn the last thing she expects is to transport into the middle of a Hive occupied base. Tortured for weeks by a Nexus unit Quinn does not think he will ever escape. When the most gorgeous female he has ever seen transports in and immediately kills his Hive guards he cannot believe his eyes. They escape together and he knows he must make her his. Quinn and Niobe have incredible chemistry she is wild at heart and Quinn calls to the hunter inside her. What follows is a inedible romance filled with plenty of action, adventure and steam to keep you hooked from page one. Actually the only disappointing thing about this story is that it must end.

HUNT FOR ME As with the other Interstellar Bride books by Ms. Grace Goodwin, they read great as a continuing saga, but each book will read well as a stand-alone. In this story, Niobe, Vice Admiral of the Coalition, has capitulated to her friends, Kira and Rachel, and has been tested for a mate—what she never expected was to be matched. Now, she must go to him and what a shock when she arrives, and this will be the story of Niobe and Quinn. “I was his prey. His desire. His mate. When I heard him groan, my heart leapt with joy. He wanted my fight. My spirit. My need to prove my strength before I submitted. I would revel beneath his dominance. His strength. For while I might give over to him, I held the power over him. I submitted to it all. Willingly. Happily. Completely.” Niobe lost her mother when she was six, raised in the foster system on Earth, never knowing her father, and at fourteen is discovered by Everians and taken to their planet since she is half-alien another surprise!. While she knew she was unusual, learning she is also half-alien doesn’t give her comfort. Everians are fast, and that explains her abilities in track. The plot will have Niobe appeasing her friends only to discover she had a matched mate and acquiesced to go to him. What a shock to be transported and discover she is in Hive territory and in a battle—for her life and his. As Vice Admiral, she can override systems, and her status will have her freeing Quinn and several other prisoners and transporting them to Karter. Now the battle really begins—both personally and professionally. With only hours for Quinn and Niobe to get to know each other, then to return and battle the Hive and Nexus. It will also become a battle of wills—a man who is determined to control his mate—and Niobe to maintain her status and position in the Coalition as Vice Admiral. “Here, with me, you’re my mate. Nothing more. You might be in control out there.” He tipped his head to the side, in the direction of the room’s door. “With me, you submit. You might be vice-admiral in that uniform, but out? You’re mine. I see who you are. What you need. Just for me. Submit. Let me take care of you. Stop thinking. Just feel.” How far will one mate go for the other? Niobe refuses to give up everything she has worked for, what she is, and who she is. Can she have the best of both worlds? A mate who will love her, take care of her, one she can submit to, yet respect her position? Will Quinn be open to allowing her to maintain her position? “He was in charge now. God, the feel of him taking over, of shedding all of my responsibilities like I did my uniform, was exhilarating. I could be more than just the vice admiral. I could just be Niobe, or more importantly, Quinn’s mate.” “I swear I have an inner beast where you are concerned. I never doubted your abilities. Never. I am proud of who you are, mate. Proud that you are mine. I am content to be yours. Your security. Your protection. Your mate. Just yours, Niobe.” The story will bring Quinn and Niobe together and yet they must learn how to mesh their lives and responsibilities. Sometimes the job will not allow emotions to come into play—but just maybe there is a way to have a bit of give and take. The chemistry between these two sizzles on the pages and they just feel right together. When it comes down to it, each person or alien needs someone that is in their corner has their best interest at heart and has the love and passion to make life better---as Quinn and Niobe do for each other.
