Taken to Sasor — Elizabeth Stephens

MianDon't run. Don't fight. Just hide. That's all we can do against the Sasor barbarian horde - huge megalithic aliens, born to fight, who can shape shift at will into monsters. We're only human, and me, just a slave among them.Getting caught is not part of the plan, but when they raid our village, I do the only thing I can think of to spare the whole. I offer myself up to their leader. Infuriating, and strangely funny, I have a lot to learn - his languages and customs, the roles I'm meant to fulfill in his tribe, and how to keep him at arm's length when he's seemingly everywhere, blocking any chances I have to find a mate, and keeping me at his side.NeheyuuShe's funny, this human. A fast learner, already adapting to our language with ease. She's forgiving. Quick to smile, it's easy to smile back. Too easy. She's slipping under my skin, infecting me and my manerak.The monster that I can become seems more ready to do her will than my own. Like she's controlling it. I should let her go. I should let her find a mate. I should let the tribes that come for her, take her...My manerak says no. Its defiance is something I've never felt before and I will need to find a way to deny them both - but how can I when my manerak wants her close?A grumpy, alpha alien snakeshifter meets a sweet, no-nonsense human heroine in Taken to Sasor, a full-length (100k words), standalone, interracial, shifter romance. While part of the Xiveri Mates series, Taken to Sasor can be read in any order and stands alone with fresh characters and a guaranteed HEA. YES for fated mates, enemies-to-lovers, world-building, action adventure, and extra steamy bits. NO for cheating, harem or love triangles. Violence, including an attack scene against our heroine, may be trigger warnings for sensitive readers.★★★★★ I definitely recommend this is you like sci-fi or fantasy romance and especially if you like the whole barbarian warrior trope... - Beckie Bookworm★★★★★ The chemistry between Mian and Neheyuu is on fire! - One Book More Blog★★★★★ Neheyuu was so unintentionally funny, I was constantly laughing. - Badass Book Reviews★★★★★ In my top favorites of 2020!
