- Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2017Don’t open the book until you have time to read it. You won’t be able to put it down. It’s been a long time since I read a book this intriguing. The writer transports you to another world with completely alien cultures. When I had to stop reading, because life happens, I didn’t really put it down. It stayed in my thoughts until I could get back to that world.
It takes you on a crazy roller coaster of emotions. You will cry for them, laugh with them, fall in love with not only the main characters but also the supporting cast. You will learn to love people you initially hated and you will hate the villains of the story, REALLY hate them. There are times you will be sitting on the edge of your seat scared to death for Grace.
There are scenes of graphic violence and sex, which are necessary to the story and part of the culture, so it IS an adult read.
This book is exciting, it has everything from hot steamy sex to heart pounding danger. Through it all it has a beautiful love story.
Grace is a woman in serious trouble. Her ex-boyfriend split town leaving her with his debt of 12 million credits. Grace has no choice but to beg Anton for help or risk being sold into slavery for the rest of her life. Anton has been dreaming of this day. Years before she had insulted his honor and his entire clan suffered the consequences. Now his revenge was with in reach, and he could regain the honor of his clansmen. She agreed to be his, body and soul for 6 months, and do whatever he told her to do. But, she doesn’t remember their first encounter, she has no idea who she just signed her life away to. She has no idea of the horrors, pain, and humiliation he has planned for her.
I don’t want to give away the story, but both main characters are broken and tortured in their own ways from horrible childhoods. They come together as broken people, and their journey of self discovery, forgiveness and acceptance was a beautiful part of the story. I loved seeing them grow as people. Watching Grace learn to stand up for herself and choose what is acceptable is a lesson every woman needs to know.
The story is told from both the main characters point of view, which I love. It really gives us insight into their pasts and what brought us here. The characters are very well developed. You have no trouble believing these people are real and you are drawn into their lives and into the cultures of the different aliens.
What is surprising is how well developed the supporting cast is. I fell in love with William, and Romeo and Brandon is MY hero! They made the story so much better.
I would love to revisit this world again. If I could give this 10 stars I would. I must now go find and read everything this talented author has written. I recommend you do the same.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2024I loved this book. It’s my type of story and setting. It’s not cheesie. I liked that Anton had flaws and wasn’t invincible. He had fear. He was a hard worker. He grew even more at the end of the story. I liked his character.
I also liked Grace. She’s a good person overall. And it’s hard to not like her. I really enjoyed this book. There were parts that could be traumatic for some readers. Don’t ignore the warnings. Move along if you’re too weak to handle it.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2024The author was wise in giving a warning before reading this book. I considered skipping it but didn’t want to mar the continuity of the series. Although several chapters display brutality eventually it got to the point that I was rooting for Grace and Anton and admired Grace’s openness to professional growth despite her upbringing. I disliked Anton for the fist quarter of the book but I was not disappointed with the manner of his redemption! Again, Regine Abel’s imagination is second the none and I look forward to reading more of her work.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2019I love Regine Abel. Her writing is so vivid that I can literally see the scenes playing out. With Anton's Grace, it was the same. But Grace and Anton plays a major part in yanking my emotions every which way.
Grace never had anything, she wasn't likeable at first. I wasn't even sure I would like her, at all. But boy did I love her. She didn't just grow on me, she was exactly of what I presumed her to be. And Anton, boy was the dude just yummy or what. And then there was his plot to avenge his clan's honor. And did that put the monkey in the wrench of me fangirling for him.
Grace isn't what everyone thinks she is, and Anton slowly finds that out the hard way. But being a half breed and with all the politics involved what he to do but be a complete and utter prick. Sigh. I wanted to punch him, in my mind I did. And Grace, she broke my heart. Her backstory was utterly soul destroying and then Anton does what he does and I broke.
This story brings to light how we treat people who are different. How so called innocent pranks can leave lasting wounds scraping at your soul. How your broken childhood can shape you to be something you are not! Would I recommend this story for everyone? YES! I would. I love every nuance of Anton and his Grace.
But will these two broken souls be able to unite to heal their old wounds? Or will the powers that shape our world, break them forever? Find out by 1-clicking this bad boy.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2024This was my first Regine Abel book. I like PNR so to find a new author is a treat. The storyline was a bit different than your usual PNR, a bit darker than the usual “dark” in other novels. But it was still engaging and had a HEA, albeit you felt a little more beat up by the end than usual. I will be reading the next. Interested to see if the dark but worth it trend will continue.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2022The plot had every bit of suspense. The characters genuine. The storyline unfortunately was extremely rough. The violence alone was hit ranching, hence the 3.5 star. Quite sadistic… And very difficult to read.
I recommend to be very careful in reading this book if one is sensitive to sexual violence. I had my pages turned.
But all in all , the book made a major statement.
At the end the book hit its 5 stars mark.⭐️

Ohhhhhh I really love Anton. This book gave me all the feels. I can see where parts of it might upset people, but it is all in line with the story and the way the people live in this world. I really enjoyed it, in fact I couldn't put it down as I just had to know what was going to happen. Brilliant stuff.

I found Regine Abel when I read the Pets in Space book 4. Brilliant. Loved her writing so I went and bought all her books and I have thoroughly enjoyed reading each one. Well written, good storyline, creative world building.... each one was great to read. I’m looking forward to reading more of her work.
