Celenk

How the Aliens Were Won #5 / 8
by Honey Phillips
Celenk (How the Aliens Were Won #5) by Honey Phillips
Unrated

A cynical alien, a weary woman, and a secret mission…

Disillusioned by the war, Celenk now uses the skills he learned for profit. He takes whatever jobs are offered, no questions asked. Infiltrate a remote farming community to gather information? No problem. Finding someone to act as his mate is a little more difficult - until a quiet little waitress catches his eye.

Lottie is tired of low pay, long hours, and the drudgery of her life in the city. When one of her customers offers her a chance to escape, she doesn’t hesitate - even if means pretending to be madly in love with a huge reptilian alien.

They know very little about each other, but the more time that they spend together, the less their relationship feels like an act. But Celenk still has a job to complete, one that means betraying the female, and the community, he’s beginning to love…

Each book in this series features a different couple and may be read as a standalone, but the books do link together. This sweet and steamy series is intended for mature readers.

Honey Phillips

Honey Phillips is a USA Today bestselling author who’s mastered the art of combining steamy romance with thrilling science fiction. Her books are a thrilling ride through galaxies filled with alien warriors, fierce Earth women, and love that defies the stars. With her stories, readers are swept into universes where danger lurks, but passion always prevails, making her books a must-read for fans of intense romance with a sci-fi twist.

Honey’s passion for storytelling began early. At just five years old, she penned and illustrated her first book—a creation that, while brimming with imagination, lacked a certain polish in the art department. Thankfully, her writing skills have since evolved into a fine-tuned craft, while her drawing remains… well, let's just say, she prefers to leave that to others. Writing is her true calling, and she has spent years honing her craft, blending the excitement of sci-fi with the allure of romance in a way that captivates her readers.

Known for her Alien Abduction, Treasured by the Alien, and Seven Brides for Seven Alien Brothers series, Honey’s books are as much about fierce alien warriors as they are about the strong, relatable women who capture their hearts. Her stories are built on the thrilling premise of abductions and intergalactic invasions, but at their core, they’re about connection, love, and overcoming obstacles—whether they’re from another planet or the human heart.

Outside of her writing, Honey enjoys the simpler pleasures of life: reading, traveling, cooking, and, of course, savoring a glass of champagne—though not necessarily in that order. She’s a homebody at heart, but she dreams of visiting all seven continents. And maybe, just maybe, she’ll pet a squirrel or two along the way.

With each new release, Honey Phillips continues to captivate her growing fanbase. Whether you're a long-time reader or new to her work, her tales of passion, adventure, and the kind of romance that reaches across the stars will keep you turning pages well into the night. You can keep up with her latest books and musings by visiting her website or following her on Instagram.

If you’re looking for a wild ride with a satisfying, steamy ending, dive into Honey Phillips’ galaxy. You won’t be disappointed.

How the Aliens Were Won

In the How the Aliens Were Won series, humanity’s most unexpected allies come from the stars. When the Yehrin, a fierce alien race, land on Earth, it’s not the destruction that humanity anticipated. Instead, it’s the start of an improbable romance between powerful alien warriors and the human women they’re destined to bond with. Set in the quiet, rural landscapes of Earth, this series is a blend of sci-fi adventure and heartfelt romance, exploring themes of trust, transformation, and healing after an invasion that could have torn worlds apart.

At the heart of each book is a new alien warrior—each with a complicated past and a deep, often reluctant, yearning to connect. With every turn of the page, readers are drawn into the nuances of cross-species attraction, where cultural clashes give way to undeniable chemistry. These stories aren’t just about the warriors’ strength, but about their vulnerabilities, their struggles to open up, and their journeys toward redemption. The human women, no less complex, find themselves torn between fear and desire, as they learn to navigate the emotional terrain of intergalactic romance.

This series captivates with a richly imagined world where the boundaries between human and alien blur. The lush, intimate settings provide a backdrop for both fierce battles and tender moments of connection. As these couples discover that love might just be the greatest force in the universe, readers are taken on a journey through uncharted emotional territories.

If you're a fan of tales where love transcends species and where healing is as powerful as passion, How the Aliens Were Won offers a galaxy of emotions and a world where hearts are won against all odds.
