Saving Verakko

Clecanian Series, Book 3

De: Victoria Aveline

Narrado por: Stephen Dexter

When Lily is freed from alien captivity, she refuses to wait for rescue - or recapture. She'll take her chances in the forest. Navigating the exotic terrain won't be easy, but it beats the alternative. Then, an enormous alien falls into her camp and makes her question everything. He's rude, grumpy, and annoyingly sexy. Trusting him would be a mistake. And yet...the idea of leaving him behind hurts way more than it should.

Verakko was supposed to liberate the kidnapped humans, then return home to fulfill his obligations. Getting dropped into the forest at the feet of the most confounding female he's ever met was not on the agenda. So, he'll help her, then they'll go their separate ways. That's the plan...until he starts to suspect that Lily is his mate.

She doesn't trust easily. He has secrets and responsibilities he can't avoid forever. Only one thing is clear. If Lily and Verakko want their happily ever after, they'll have to fight more than the dangers of the forest to get it.

Contains mature themes.

Fave so far

The Publisher’s Summary for this book is pretty good in giving basic story info. Of the series, this is my favorite so far. Excellent Chapter 14 - hot, hot, hot! This book is not a sex fest - at all - but when Lily and Verakko finally come together, you believe in the inevitability of their mating bond.
I’ll take a love story over a murder story any day of the week. Creation vs destruction: this takes no effort at all to choose.
Dexter did ok on the narration.

JFC Lily

The amount of times I wanted to DNF because of Lily's choices was too damn high which is unfortunate because I started out really liking her. I hate the miscommunication trope but holy shit Lily took it to another level, she makes assumptions due to her own bias and then lashes out at everyone when her assumptions are wrong. I felt so bad for literally everyone who had to interact with her. Also she doesn't respect Verakko's "no" to intimacy and that's just icky in general. Definitely still a fun read despite how much I wanted to throttle her lol

4 stars

This book was the best one of the series, so far. The MMC and FMC have to traverse the woods together and, as they get to know each other, their connection grows. I enjoyed their banter and the development of their relationship.

Okay

This book was okay; nothing about it stood out; it seemed your basic run of the mill paranormal romance. Stephen did a great job narrating; brought each character to life. If female domination is your thing, you’ll like this book.

Great story

I have fallen on love with the narrator's voice. He brings so much life to the characters.

I enjoyed this story so much. There was a part in the middle I wanted to slap the heroin but she had a right to be scared of a long life commitment.

It's a wonderful story I truly recommend.

Good, but Nerve-Wracking

It's another excellent alien romance by Victoria Aveline. It was hot, but boy was also nail-biting! The human female, Lily, really had my frustration and anxiety shooting through the roof. Thank goodness she finally made the right decision!

Favorite Alien Romance Series!!

Ah, Verakko. I was so looking forward to your story and it did not disappoint!!! I absolutely adore this series so far and the narrator is fantastic!!

Awesome

I really enjoyed this book! I love the creativity of the different strengths of the different region of aliens. The characters are great. The pacing is fantastic. I totally recommend this series.

It started ok, towards the end….

Lily assumes too much. She never actually wants to listen and when she does she blames everyone for her stubbornness and lack of context! Like jeez lady shush for a bit! Honestly, it is a very hard read/listen bc of her attitude. Although, I don’t agree with him and his reasonings all the time he can accept accountability.

Loved all 3 books!!!

I only have one con... the "decision " was drawn out far too long. The book was amazing otherwise . Hoping for another book in this series. Maybe Izzo or Fayo or the demon... anywhere looking forward to more books from this Author.
