Story
Ha'ven Ha'darra is the Crown Prince of the Curizans, an advanced species known for their technology. They may not have the power to shift like the Valdier or the Sarafin, but they have hidden powers of their own that they closely guard. Not even his best friends, Creon Reykill of the Valdier or Vox d'Rojah of the Sarafin, are aware of the powers he holds within his deadly frame.

Gracie Jones was little more than a child when Earth was invaded by an alien species. Escaping into the subway tunnels of New York City, she hid in fear of being captured. Discovered by four men who became her protectors, she fought alongside them, and they became known as the Freedom Five. At 17, she made a decision that turned the tide in the war between Earth and the Alluthans, but in exchange, she gave up all that she knew.

Story
As the first humans allowed in Suevan space, there’s a lot riding on my all-woman team. Earth desperately needs their tech, and I’m determined to prove we can negotiate the price. Without their planetary defense systems, Earth is a sitting duck, ripe for invasion. Except the Suevan culture is nothing like ours. When I take part in what I think is a welcoming ceremony, I leave with more than I bargained for: a husband. A mate. Apparently, we’re there to marry them as payment—something the top brass on Earth doesn’t bother denying. Fantastic.

Publisher's Summary
New York Times and USA Today best-selling author S.E. Smith presents another action-, adventure-, and suspense-filled story to transport listeners out of this world.
Riley St. Claire has always followed her own rules. When she discovers her current employer is not as law-abiding as she thought, she has to leave town in a hurry...or end up buried with the dead guy she discovered. She doesn't expect to be picked up by a passing trader from another world.
As the ruling king of Sarafin, Vox d'Rojah is expected to produce a son who will be joined in marriage with the first-born daughter of the king of Valdier. But Vox has no intentions of having any sons, at least not in the near future. He's quite happy with the wide selection of females at his disposal. When Vox is captured by a ruthless Valdier royal and sold to a mining operation, the last thing he expects to find is his bride mate.
Vox isn't sure which would be easier: fighting another war with the Valdier or capturing and holding on to the human female who's unlike anyone he has ever encountered. Now he must escape back to his world while fighting pirates, traders - and Riley!
The king of Sarafin has met his match in Ms. Riley St. Claire from Earth. Now he just needs to figure out a way to let her know he has chosen her as his queen - and he has every intention of keeping her by his side forever.

nope not this one
I have listened to other books by Ms Smith and so, even though I'm not in series order, I thought I'd give this one a listen. There was a huge NO thankyou moment that kept being brought up throughout the book and I had to skip forward. Cats and milk......
While I enjoyed the spitfire h and her strength, especially the humour I was over her 2 hours in.
This whole book was based on lack of knowledge, understanding and communication. I was so frustrated.
The H was driven by the whole get her pregnant trope that had me eye rolling.
For a Prince he certainly wasn't written with any intelligence.
The last hour skipped to the h's acceptance and enjoying her new world. But it did have more action than the rest of the book.
While I'm guessing that this novel was intended to be light and comical, it wasn't right for me.
There was a huge lack of depth that I discovered in other S. E. Smith novels so I'm stopping here.
The Valdier series sounds more plot driven than this one.
It's just push, pull, chase, submit, steam, ice, gah.....not my cup of plotline.
David Brenin did a great job as usual. But I did keep imagining Vox with a deeper voice that I couldn't quite shake.

Fun and frivolous
The narration was great, with Riley's accent and intonation just perfect. They way the narrator brought both her internal thoughts and speech 'alive' helped to make this story resonate.
As a bit of frivolity, the plot was very entertaining, so long as you don't take it too seriously. I thoroughly enjoyed the ridiculousness of the universe's species conjured up by the author. But don't read/listen if you are overly sensitive to various '-isms', as the author has poked fun at many of these.

Great story.
Loved this story. Although the main story is about a royal cat finding his mate, there is a back story as well. looking forward to the next one.
Have read a few stories by this author and I really enjoyed the stories.

Audible brings the wonderful humour to life.
Audible brings the wonderful humour to life. Narrator does a good job with this story as Riley is a strong personality.
BOOK REVIEW
Fantastic read. In the top 5 books of all Ms Smiths wonderful interconnecting world of Aliens.
I don't think I have laughed out loud so much as I did at Riley's antics. She is wonderful, another strong capable woman who doesn’t need a man in her life but completes them like no one else can.
The fact that Vox, the Sarafin King, one of the most feared fighters in the galaxy keeps tripping over his own paws making mistakes is hysterical.
One of the best books I have read in ages. This book ties in with the wonderful world created by Ms Smith.
I just wish she could write them faster as there are so many wonderful characters awaiting their HEA's.
I can re-read Ms Smiths books continually as still laugh every time.

***Choosing Riley***
This is one of my favourites of all S E Smith's books. Riley is a breath if fresh air, she is sassy, feisty potty mouthed earthlings who can drive a man or cat up the wall. Box the said cat/man has totally smitten and fallen hard to Miss St Claire from Denver Colorado will do almost anything to keep his feisty mate from returning back to earth. I love their adventure I laugh so hard and also cried. David Brenin you are an amazing narrator thank you.
