Rebel

Alien Warrior Academy (A Sci Fi Academy Romance)

De: Hope Hart

Narrado por: Amber Lee Connors, Kieran Flitton

It was supposed to be one night.

One night with the gorgeous, broken, enigmatic explosives expert who makes me crazy.

The problem? Now I can’t stop fantasizing about the way we self-combusted all over each other.

But the guilt in his eyes when he looked at me after and remembered I’m not his dead lover? Let’s just say I’m not interested in getting involved with someone who’s clearly still suffering.

With a traitor in our midst, I shouldn’t be consumed with memories of our night together. And I definitely shouldn’t be thinking about just how well he lit my fuse. Especially when that traitor’s attacks are getting deadlier and hitting closer to home each time.

Can I protect both the academy and my heart? Or will they end up shattered beyond repair?

Rebel is a full-length romance with a guaranteed HEA and no cheating. This is the second book in the Alien Warrior Academy series.

Another Alien World

Good storyline. Although I felt the story was a little brief. The end came pretty fast and I felt there was a gap and race to the end. I felt it need a little more meat, so to speak, in the story. Still liked it and the narration.

Nice quick listen

Spice is good. Plot is great. Narrators are excellent and actually voice act out the scenes. Definitely worth the credit.

Great Story!

I really enjoyed this book! It was not all sex, it had a great story to it with a surprise ending. I highly recommend it!

Great Story

I really enjoyed this. Loved the world and how strong the female characters are. Will be listening to the rest of the series

Lots of Excitement

I enjoyed listening to this book. There is something about the narrators voice that made me just keep listening when I should have been working! LOL

Looove it!!

This story was really good! I fell in love with both characters. I can see how a person can get confused about love. They end up winning at the end! Just perfect story!

Would be better if it were longer!

The Hero: Zarryn - He is the first son to the King of a clan on Lokar, a prince who abdicated his throne to go as an instructor to the Lokarian Military Academy. He is in search of revenge for the death of the woman he loved.

The heroine: Layla - one of the human students at the military academy. Layla is a soldier and a weapons expert, with a focus on explosives. She is one of the best students at the academy. Humans are allowed into the academy to learn to fight the Lokarian’s enemies, the Scrum, insect like creatures intent on the destruction of worlds and if the Lokarian’s can’t eradicate them, they will eventually attack Earth.

The Story: This is a short read, about 158 pages and the audiobook is only 4 hours and 20 minutes. At the start, Layla is lamenting about her hook-up with Zarryn, who gave her a thrilling night, but in the morning had eyes filled with guilt and regret, so she took off and is not too happy with the guy. I think this was a missed opportunity and could have been a much better and longer book if the author would have started when Layla and Zarryn first met and became attracted to each other rather than starting after their hookup.

The scrum had once been allies to the Lokarians, but had betrayed them and now are their fiercest enemies with high tech weapons and bombs. The Scrum have some humans that are working with them and have infiltrated the academy. They already found one traitor and more have been causing havoc.

This book is told in dual points of view via duet narration. I love the fact that this is done in duet narration, too few books are done that way, where the male narrator does all the male parts and the female does all the female parts no matter whose point of view the chapter is told from. Amber Lee Connors and Kieran Flitton do the narration and both do a terrific job. Kieran’s voice gives me Tom Cruise vibes and Amber has a soft feminine voice which is very pleasing.

One thing I really liked about this book was that the Lokarians have technology and are more advanced than humans, so many of these alien romance books are barbarian aliens on primitive planets, and I really like the books that have a race that is advanced and high tech. I also liked the characters, Zarryn is a nice guy and Layla is fierce and loves to exercise. The book did feel rushed though.

Good and bad

Hope Hart is hit and miss for me and this story is a pretty good example of why. For only being just over 4hrs, the story seems to go on too long. Also, the female character seems so weak willed so supposedly being such a no nonsense type. Overall I like the story as it was good for the series, but it just felt lacking and forgettable.

I like both the narrators and will look for other books they have voiced.

Not what I expected

Second disappointment. I love this genre but lately books have not been as exciting and interesting as usual; not sure if storylines are too similar. Boring.

Quick, Enjoyable Alien Romance

The duet style performances of Amber Lee Connors and Kieran Flitton made what would have been an okay alien romance a pretty good one. Although this was quick, it packed quite a bit of a punch in the action, mystery and spice department. This was a good listen for the moment.

3.5 starz - worthy of a repeat listen, but I probably won't.
