Betrothed to the Alien Mercenary: A Steamy Sci-Fi Monster Romance
Trust no one. Hide who I am. Complete the mission. Easy... until I meet him.
Evie
When a dying Xurtal princess makes me promise to save her planet, I have no choice but to take her place. Me, a human girl, pretending to be an alien royal. To survive the assassination attempts, I need a bodyguard. Enter Aramon: cocky, infuriating, and scorchingly hot.
He has to pretend to be my mate to protect me. A fake fiancé for a fake princess. What could possibly go wrong?
But the way he looks at me feels anything but fake. And if he discovers my secrets, I’ll lose more than my mission—I might lose him too.
Aramon
Playing bodyguard to a spoiled princess? Not my dream job. But the second I meet Evadne, everything changes. She’s my perfect match, even if this is all supposed to be an act.
I’ve sworn to protect her, and it’s more than duty now. It’s instinct. The deeper we go into this dangerous game, the harder it is to let her go.
She may not trust me, but I’ll prove one thing: this princess is mine, no matter what galaxy-shattering secrets she’s hiding.
This is book three in the Monster Mercenary Mates series. This sci-fi monster romance features one irreverent, cocky alien pilot, a fake princess with a huge secret, an even faker betrothal, and a steamy HEA.

Book Reviews
I really enjoyed getting to know Evie and Aramon in this book as well as getting to know Aramon’s twin brother Solear. I have enjoyed everything by this author that I have read so far and look forward to reading Tass’s story Entangled by the Alien Mercenary when it comes out.
I received a free advanced reader copy of this book from the author and am voluntarily leaving a review.
