CONNIE

I have a purple stalker.

I don’t know what possessed me to hit the Xarc’n warrior with my bat, but now I have a stalker—a big purple stalker with fangs and horns. And to make things worse, I can’t go back to New Franklin.

After my first night out on my own, I wake up all wrapped up and cuddly with a certain possessive hunter. He purrs like a giant cat and vows to protect me. And to top it all off, he has a pet squirrel. A freakin’ pet squirrel!

The “Jerk” claims he can’t let go of me, but I don’t buy it. I’m no squirrel, and I don’t intend to be his pet. Not even when he claims I belong with him and promises to protect me forever.


JORG’K

Killing the scourge is my calling, and I revel in every violent encounter. Hunters are created with strong instincts to protect, but mine never fully manifested. I just wanted to fight. I never understood why some hunters wanted anything more. Until now.

I can’t get the little human out of my head. She attacks me with her wooden club, and I realize she’s all I ever wanted.

My brave female watches me as I fight the deadly scourge, so I give her a show of my strength and skills. I will convince her to be my mate. I have to. The mating bond has chosen, and it is never wrong!

    I love the story's of love with non over description loving just enough to make it spicy. It's action packed with adventure and the true fierceness of humanity's inate ability to survive. There's nothing that I truly dislike about this series maybe the repeating of some event's outlined in the pervious books but if you read them in order no repeats are nessary. So good and now I'm gonna load book 4. TaTa for now!!

    Book 3 in the series, and right where I have started. I enjoyed the book for a couple of reasons. First, I do like an apocalypse, but make it a
    Bugapocolypse, and I am intrigued. Then, following earth's invasion of giant bugs, the planet is invaded with huge, sexy purple beings who hunt those giant bugs. Well, that's my kind of book.

    There's lots of action, fun-to-read characters, nice steamy bits, and a happy ever after to keep me entertained.

    There is a small group of tyrants in the compound that run things. Mama Sal runs the New Mother program and takes bribes by men so certain women are given to them. The women's doors are locked from the outside. No choice in partner and no way to lock the men out. Connie does not want that life so she is a forager and she has a protector. Jorg'k - a bug hunter. He scented her awhile ago and knows she's his mate. I loved reading of his confusion of human mating rituals. But feel sad for the bad information the government gave out about the bug hunters. Thank goodness for translators. Creepy bugs with new variants, creepy bribing guys, danger, friendships, new found love and Steamy times. And who can forget Tooth. Great world building and character development allow the reader to get lost in this great story.

    Another strong entry for the Xarc'n Warriors series. Jorg’k, loves fighting and killing the swarm. Even though he enjoys killing the bugs he's lonely and wildlife to find someone too call his own. He has a wonderful friend who happens to be a mischievous squirrel he named tooth. On a routine mission he gets rid of some bugs and scents a female. Once he takes in her beautiful scent he knows that she is the female for him. Connie , is out foraging and is trapped by the bugs in a closet until a big bad gorgeous Xarc'n warrior rescued her. She's terrified at first because she's not sure what she has been told is the truth about the warriors. She escapes and goes back to her settlement but she doesn't feel like she belongs anywhere. As a matter of fact she actually scared . She's afraid she's tough to end up a breeder or kicked out. Jorg’k watches his female from afar trying his best to provide for her and keep her safe. Until she leaves her settlement all bets are off he will do what ever he has to go keep her safe. Connie realizes this warrior truly only wants what's best for her and will give her a place to truly fit in and belong. Join the adventure, danger, alien bugs, passion and most of all love can be found here within the pages of this book. Great read 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

    This is a very good, well written, action packed, Alien/Human romance. The characters are interesting and lovable. Each story in the series can be read alone, it is best to read in order to get all the relationships. Connie does not appreciate Jorg’K at first due to the old stories put out by the government. Read and find out how Connie learns to trust.

    Connie is very spunky and Jorg'k admires her for it. When Connie has to head out on her own to avoid being a new mother, Jorg'k takes her onto his ship and the mating bond is triggered. Jorg'k is patient and offers gifts until Connie accepts him. They even manage to rescue her friend. I'm routing for the team of Xarc'n and humans against the scrouge. I also think Tooth is adorable.

    I brought, own, kept and read as many of the Xarc'n Warrior books as I can find. I was intrigued to find such as series and I was thoroughly surprised at how the story was written. I didn't get absurd aliens, I got well thought out aliens, a great background story and it is totally believable. I've recommended the series to my friends and even though they aren't into science fiction, they read as many as they could get their hands on and have now made alien or science fiction space romances part of their reading lot. You get enough background story to know why they are where they are, and apart from not being human, they are human like. If you've never read a series involving non humans, give this one a go, you'll be quickly absorbed into their world and won't want it to end. Each story has the same spine, but twirls outward from there, making each story individual. The physical interaction scenes are well thought out, well written and a lot of my friends want their own warrior. Not a leave them at the bedroom door romance, but not a romance based around just the physical interaction. If the individual stories don't drag you in, the warriors and their firey Human females will. A realistic future. A great portal to start your introduction to science fiction in general and a wonderful place for a very different romance. Highly recommended. Definitely a series that will be forever in my collection.
