Although this story is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone.
I loved this story! It begins when human female Xara wakes up in a crashed spaceship on an unknown alien planet. She has no memory of how she got there and the alien who kidnapped her is dead. She decides to leave the spaceship and seek help. While exploring the planet, she discovers three orphaned alien pups who imprint on her, but the planet is dangerous. Xara and the pups soon find themselves in great danger but luckily they are saved by a dangerous warrior. To keep them safe, he takes them to his cave. Xara is scared but she’s smart enough to know that her best chance of survival is to stay with the dangerous warrior. But is he really so dangerous? He’s very protective of her and the pups aren’t afraid of him. Xara gives the Xenobeast a name, Ash. Ash is large, has tendrils who like to touch her and claws on his hands. He’s a predator, the Zarkadi’s tried to make him into a weapon, but they failed to turn him into a monster. He still has a conscience, and that’s why they dropped him on this planet. They considered him a failure.
Ash knows how to survive in difficult and dangerous circumstances. Xara and Ash grow closer and fall in love but then Ash’s enemies are back on the planet, they are looking for someone. But who? Ash or Xara? Luckily, Ash and Xara aren’t alone, they get a little help from other inhabitants of the planet but will that be enough? Ash knows one thing for sure, he will use every trick he knows to protect Xara and the pups.
I really loved both Xara and Ash. Xara was such a compassionate, caring, intelligent and pragmatic woman. She was scared but also brave. She cared deeply for Ash. She saw the man beneath the dangerous warrior. She made of his cave a home, letting him experience what it was like to have a mate and a family (with the pups). She was patient with him, but also eager to learn how to protect herself and their home. Xara was also very curious of their surroundings about the flora and fauna. Her scientific mind allowed her to adapt quickly to her new surroundings. Ash was so amazing! He was a warrior and fought against dangerous animals and persons. He was also a hunter, who hunted for food for Xara and the pups. But he was more than that. He was also sensitive enough to worry about their well-being, about hurting them with his power. He wanted Xara to feel comfortable in his cave so he made it more comfortable for her. He wanted her to feel at home there. When she was sick, he cared for her. He had no experience with kindness or gentle touches, so at first he didn’t know how to handle it, but after a while, he also loved touching Xara (with his hands and his tendrils! Which made for some interesting scenes.).
The pups were so adorable! Even though they were small they were protective of Xara. They each had their own personality. They were cute.
The story was told from both POV’s and included a few sex scenes.
I really loved this story!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is another fun sci-fi romance installment in the Alien Abduction series. It’s the 24th book in the series, with titles spanning the alphabet, and can be read as a standalone. FMC Xara is a human biologist who wakes up on a strange and dangerous planet after being abducted from Earth. The nameless Xenobeast MMC is a modified alien soldier who has been exiled there. I loved this book! It features one of my favorite tropes: a feral hero and the scientist who observes, and ultimately tames him. Xara is curious, kind, and compassionate, while also analytical and sensual. The Xenobeast is at war with himself but can’t help protecting and falling for the lovely female. This was an exciting and spicy sci-fi romance. Honey Phillips always delivers when it comes to alien and monster romance, and I can’t wait to see what she has in store for the Y and Z titles in this series! Spice: 4.5/5 Plot:4.5/5 Writing: 4.5/5 My Enjoyment: 4.5/5 ***I received and ARC
