Blurb: Lust was only the spark…

Keenan Hastings thought delivering the envelopes for the Eoean lottery would spare him from being selected. He was wrong. When he finds himself on an auction block being pawed by horny aliens, he feels he deserves his fate.

Oco Mig Nuhull’s unique gift—the ability to read sentient creatures by touching them—has made him wealthy but also isolated. He’s unable to experience the depth of physical love because he can’t touch without reading his lover. Bored with his lonely existence, he goes to the auction to see a rare and much talked about Earthling. When he touches Keenan and finds his ability blocked, Oco must have him.

Despite Keenan and Oco’s instant, powerful, and mutual connection, their struggle to be together is thwarted at every turn. Lust may have sparked a far deeper bond, but how will they battle against the lust of Keenan’s true owner?

Review: This story is part of a series and although it can be read as a standalone is best read in order. Keenan has been delivering the letters for the Eoean lottery for years and is one day shy of being ineligible for the lottery when he receives his own letter in his paycheck. Finding himself being pawed by horny scary aliens has him terrified and there is nothing he can do about it. Oco has made his wealth by being able to read others minds by touching them, it makes relationships and lovers impossible, and he is lonely. Visiting an auction has him making a rare find a being he can touch without reading them, he has to have the rare creature for his own, but he has fierce competition. Keenan and Oco have an instant attraction between them and no matter how much they want to be together they have the problem and they face fierce opposition.

This is a great addition to the Owned series where the human and alien have to fight and negotiate their way to a successful conclusion. Keenan is a great character who has had his own lonely life, working, as a letter deliverer doesn’t make him any friends. When he meets Oco, it isn’t in the best situation but getting to know him has him wishing that he could stay with Oco. Oco is intrigued by the human and is delighted to discover he can touch him, when Oco loses out to someone else he takes matters into his own hands and it isn’t long before Oco discovers soul resonance with Keenan.

I really enjoyed this story and was interested to see how working for lottery affected Keenan; the poor man didn’t have much of a life and longed for a relationship like the one his neighbors had. Oco is in much the same position; he’s alone because of his abilities and in Keenan finds someone he can relax with. Together they are especially hot and fit together perfectly, they only have to find a way to stay together. This is a well-written story that veers off from the D/s that we saw in Owned 1 & 3 to a more equal sexual experience without the dominance or submission coming to the fore.

I recommend this to those that love science fiction, hot sex, saving someone from a fate worse than death, escaping loneliness, finding true love in unexpected places and a great ending.

Blurb: Only pleasure could destroy his pain…

When an alien race saves humanity in exchange for a few healthy human males, Hunter Wilkes is terrified to be selected. Those who are chosen are never seen again. Worse, no one knows their fate. Still, Hunter vows to face his destiny like a man, but he’s shocked when he finds himself owned by a terrifying alien.

Kian Lachlan might have a terminal disease that keeps him in constant pain, but that doesn’t mean he believes the hype about Earthlings having curative powers. When his father buys him one anyway, Kian is furious and determined to prove Hunter is as fake as all the other cures he’s been subjected to.

What neither one of them was expecting was discovering a shocking sexual affinity. True roles of master and slave translate perfectly in the bedroom, but Kian’s father didn’t buy Hunter to pleasure his son. He wants a cure and won’t settle for anything less. If Hunter fails, he’ll be sold.

Note: Each book in the Owned series is stand-alone and can be read in any order.

Review: Hunter is scared to death when he receives a letter telling him he has been chosen in the alien lottery, nobody ever knows what happens to the young men who are picked and they are never heard of again. Kian has a terminal illness and his father has bought a human in an effort to cure him, Kian doesn’t believe that anything will ever give him relief from the tormenting pain but finds that with the human, Hunter, it is much more manageable with their sexual encounters. But, Kian’s father expects a full recovery and if he doesn’t get one Hunter will be sold.

This great new series has an alien race coming to the rescue of humans and getting young men as payment. Everyone male knows what a plain white envelope with their name, address and social security number on means, it means you have been chosen in the lottery by the Eoeans and that your life as you know it has ended. Hunter receives his and wonders what he is about to face, but the reality of a metal encased alien never crossed his mind. Kian has suffered for years and Hunter gives him some semblance of peace, their connection as they fall in love is getting stronger and the mythical soul bond just might be true.

This is a very original new science fiction series where the human race was rescued from a deadly disease by an alien race who wants human men as payment. Hunter is a very feisty submissive who goes from fear to arousal when he first meets his owner, Kian, he finds himself attracted to the stronger alien and wants nothing more than to submit to him, but he doesn’t understand what Kian really expects from him when Kian says he has failed. Kian has been promised a human will be able to cure him and is deeply disappointed when it doesn’t happen, he is even more surprised when he learns the human, Hunter, has no clue that he was promised as a cure. It doesn’t stop the two males from getting into a D/s relationship and falling in love and when the two are ripped apart it is discovered that the soul-bond myth is the truth.

The relationship between these two males’ progresses quickly after they both put their cards on the table, they develop a beautiful D/s relationship, which is juicily kinky. Hunter and Kian fall in love but they both hold back a bit until they are nearly lost to each other. This is a great lighthearted story that has a great storyline and some hot kinky sex, the characters are great with each one suiting his role perfectly, and they have hot kinky sex. We get a great background story on both Hunter and Kian… oh did I mention they have hot kinky sex?

I recommend this to those that love kinky science fiction, hot kinky sex, a great storyline and a very happy ending after just a touch of angst.

Blurb: Supreme ruler of his planet, Zigog Claelyan, was kept so frantically busy he had no time to be tempted, until an admirer gives him a rare and expensive earthling. When the arrogant creature seems to have no interest in him, Zigog is furious and reluctantly intrigued.

There is nothing Dalton Boyd hates more than feeling powerless. When he’s caged and given as a gift to an alien who clearly has everything, he’s willing to do anything to torment him—even ignore him. When his strategy works a little too well, Dalton discovers he’s just as captivated as his new master is.

As their masks fall away and they succumb to temptation, can Zigog and Dalton face one another with honesty? Or will they allow dark secrets and deep-seated fears to ruin their chance at the mystical soul resonance?

Review: This story is part of a series and can be read as a stand-alone but is best read in order. Dalton is surprised and scared when he is chosen for the alien lottery; he has only just started to explore his Dominate side and now thinks he will never get to experiment further, until he sets eyes on the alien who now owns him. Zigog is the Supreme ruler of his planet and never has any time off, when he is gifted a human at his birthday celebration he is furious and aroused with the humans attitude. Zigog and Dalton soon find themselves losing the masks they hide behind as they succumb to their attraction, but they still have obstacles to overcome if their soul resonance is to bind fully.

This story is slightly connected to Bound by Pleasure through Hunter who was Dalton’s best friend; we saw them as they comforted each other in the hours before they were to leave their homes. Dalton now finds himself in a cage a hundred feet in the air above a celebration, Dalton digs deep to keep his fear at bay and decides he is going to seduce the beautiful gold man as soon as he gets the chance. Zigog is painted gold for his birthday celebration, when he is given the gift of a human he decides he will make the arrogant human bend to his will, but Dalton offers him something he never thought he wanted… Domination.

We are again taken to a new planet with a new culture and we see two males trying to understand each other’s cultures. Dalton has to understand the foundation of Zigog’s society and the way it works for him to really get a grasp because nothing is the same as on Earth, the music, the art and the way they make families is all different but luckily Dalton grasps it quite quickly and Zigog has patience. Zigog has a lot to learn as well as he gets to grasps with Dalton’s vocabulary, their sexual exploits, and discovering he has been sheltered on purpose. Their trust builds quickly as they each share themselves with the other, but they soon learn that even though they trust each other Zigog has difficulty trusting himself. 

I recommend this to those who love men finding themselves, exploring their sexual needs, slight D/s, hot sex, building trust and discovering to have faith in ones-self, and a very happy ending when it all comes together.
