ALICE
It’s hard enough living in the Bugpocalypse; the last thing I need is a big, purple stalker. But that’s exactly what I get. Kaj’k is freakin’ HUGE! And his sharp claws, pointy fangs, and massive horns are scary AF.

I reject his gift of food and flowers, but my massively muscled alien warrior doesn’t get the hint. He tosses me over his shoulders and carries me to his shuttle. I expect the worst, but all he does is purr at me.

KAJ'K
I’ve spent my entire life fighting the swarm. Genetically engineered to hunt the scourge across the galaxy, Xarc’n hunters are the ultimate predators. It takes a lot to take one of us down. Then, I meet the little human female who brings me to my knees.

My Alice is full of fire, and I have no doubt she can survive on her own. But she’s my mate, and she’s mine to protect. When cannibals and scourge threaten my female, I toss her over my shoulder and carry her to my ship. Now that I have my mate in my arms, I’m never letting her go!

Lynnea Lee

Lynnea Lee writes the kind of stories that pull readers out of the ordinary and drop them into the arms of alien warriors, mercenaries, and mates destined across the stars. Known for her fast-growing catalog of steamy science fiction romance, she blends heart, heat, and heroism in ways that keep fans coming back for more. Her worlds are alive with energy and emotion, where survival and desire often collide, and every love story feels both otherworldly and real.

Since the release of her first book, A Deal for Zeylum, Lynnea’s name has become a familiar one among readers who crave a mix of adventure and passion. Her popular series such as Tallean Mercenaries, Xarc’n Warriors, and Kadrixan Mates are filled with fierce heroines, growly alpha males, and high-stakes missions that test the limits of loyalty and trust. Each book carries her trademark balance of intensity and warmth, reminding readers that even in galaxies far from Earth, love still finds a way.

Away from the page, Lynnea’s life feels just as full of character. She describes herself as a “recovered serial monogamist,” happily settled in her forever home with the man of her dreams. She has a habit of chatting with her plants, doing her makeup even when no one will see it, and giving her dog slightly too many hugs. These glimpses of her daily life show the same mix of humor and heart that runs through her writing, a love for beauty, connection, and a touch of the unexpected.

Lynnea Lee may not chase awards or publicity, but her work speaks for itself through devoted readers and expanding universes. For anyone who enjoys alien romances that are equal parts action and emotion, her stories promise a journey filled with danger, tenderness, and the thrill of falling in love among the stars.

Lynnea Lee also writes steamy paranormal romance under her Maggie Mayhem pen name

This was an enjoyable book and I enjoyed the story and characters. The epilogue at the end was also a fun way to wrap up this couples story. I look forward to reading more of this series.Xarc'n Warriors SeriesClaimed by the Hunter: Alice & Kaj’kWanted by the Hunter: Natalie & Rajiv’kTaken by the Hunter: Connie & Jorg’kCherished by the Hunter: Evie & Tarv’kRescued by the Hunter: Nikki & Koriv’nStolen by the Hunter: Meghan & Mal’kCaptured by the Hunter: Tilly & Rayk’nHunter's Quest: Morgan & Rhaz’kProtected by the Hunter: Siobhan & Zec’kDesired by the Hunter: Aanya & Haax’lCoveted by the Hunter: Heather & Nov’kCraved by the Hunter: A Post-Apocalyptic Alien Romance: Sam & Kan’n
