BOOK REVIEW- WORLDS AWAY by J.L. Hendricks

Worlds Away: Sci-fi Alien Romance (Alpha Alien Abduction Tale Book 1) by [Hendricks, J.L.]
Slavery, or mate to an Alien Commander? Which would you choose? 

Paris had lost her parents at a young age and instead of going into the foster system, she ended up on the streets. Sure, life was tough for a 17-year-old girl with no one to turn to, but she made her way on the streets of Los Angeles for years. That is, until one day when she was no longer on the streets, or even on Earth 

Commander Venay of the V'Zenian Empire was a man on a mission. It was his responsibility to ensure a good lot of human slaves made it back to his planet each year. But this time it was different, he saw her across a field and knew he had to have her, at all costs. 

The choice was simple, Paris could be a slave on the V'Zenian home world, or she could become Venay's mate and provide him with the offspring his people so desperately needed! Until the V'Zenian's most venomous rival, the Zateelians, attacked Venay's ship and forced them to crash land on a distant planet. Paris had a new choice to make: save herself or help Venay exterminate aliens who have a sinister plan for the humans. AMAZON  4.5 STARS


I liked this story; it was clean and interesting. Paris was a fighter and a survivor because she has had to be.  She's smart too which helps a lot.  I enjoyed watching her trying to survive her new situation.  She's not one that typically would go quietly into the night to her fate so that resistance makes sense.  And she doesn't crumble right away which I liked.  She did try to help others, whether they were alien or human. 

Venay was a character that you could see had a job to do but he also showed tenderness towards Paris as well.   He has his hands full with Paris because even when he tries to protect her, she's a  scrapper not afraid to get in the middle of things.  They also have a major difference between them when it comes to the abducting humans to be slaves.  Paris just figures there has to be a better way.  And knowing her she will probably find it.  That doesn't get resolved in this book but some better treatment is given to those captured after Paris intercedes for them. 

This book has what I consider a Happy Ever After For Now, going on.   If you wanted to you could stop right now and I think you would be satisfied.  OR you could continue on with another book and keep the adventures going.
