Stryxian Alien Warriors, Book 3

By: Ella Blake

Narrated by: Elle Sonali, Zachary Johnson

When Axika Naxek is tasked with upgrading a newly acquired human space station, he comes straight up against Gwen, a brilliant human female whose strategic mind is integral to operations.

He thinks little of the weak humans he is in charge of, but to his astonishment, she ignites his mala and his interest. He can resist the sparks between them for a while, but the day will come for him to claim her as his.

Gwen Jadin disliked everything about the Stryxian lottery, in which women were sent off to find alien mates and is not pleased that they are taking over the space station she has called home for a decade. She's forced to work with Axika as he transforms the station for Stryxian use and would rather eat raiple dung than help him. If only she could stop thinking dirty thoughts about him, dreaming about him.

When they learn that someone is trying to sabotage the station, they must work together to find the hidden enemy. As the attacks increase in intensity and damage, events unfold that change relations between Stryxians and humans forever. Can Gwen and Axika get over their differences—and submit to their desires—before the saboteur succeeds in destroying the base and their best chance at peace?

This is book three in the Stryxian Alien Warriors series. The author writes what they love in a story: always consent and a happy ending, and never cheating or cliff-hangers.

Excellent story as usual didn't disappoint .

Loved it and checked all the boxes of a syfy fantasy erotic story that you would want.

I am very much enjoying this series

The books are well written and there is NO whining. The plot is well timed and the character’s actions fit the situation.
All in all worth the $.
Narration was good too.

Love it

The end seemed rush and there was no discussion about them moving to the palace.

The story was wonderful and I love that the characters find love and save the day. One complaint is the book cover makes the males appear too human. I am not listening to stories about alien males to see human features on the cover. Also, diversify the ethnicities of the female characters.

The alien males have captured my heart and my imagination.

Shaping Up to Be a New Favorite Series

Each of these stories have been getting progressively better. I cannot wait for the next book!

Best Book so Far

The storyline was a pleasant surprise; almost didn’t listen to it after listening to the preview in Book 2; Gwen was only a rude and obnoxious female at the beginning, not the entire book. The storyline was interesting and intriguing. Narrators did a great job with characters. Look forward to listening to the next book!

Lots of mystery and danger!

The heroine: Gwen Jaden - she was a strategic integrations and implementation coordinator on a formerly human space station called the Glory, during the war with the Morr’ta. Now that the war is over, the Stryxians are taking over the station to use it as a base to ensure the security of the sector. Gwen is considered a consultant but is good at her job. She uses her mind to calculate statistics on various systems. She is also cousin to the queen, the human that is mated to the Stryxian king.

The Hero: Admiral Axika Naxek - he is newly in charge of the Stryxian space station, the Glory. He is not too happy about his new posting and even less happy when he demands a meeting with one of his contractors, Gwen Jaden and she replied back that she wasn’t coming. Axika had been mated in the past, but his pregnant mate had died when the Morr’ta attacked Stryxia. His instincts now were telling him that Gwen would be important to him. He also happens to be the cousins of the Stryxian king.

The Story: Admiral Naxek keeps running into Gwen in different places, like the gym and out at one of the new restaurants on the station. He asks her to join him in dinner, trying to figure out what it is she means to him. Whether she would be important to him in her capacity as a consultant or was she a second mate to him?

This was a good story, especially when the two main characters determine that someone is sabotaging the station. It gets dangerous for them when a bunch of things start to go wrong. The chemistry between Axika and Gwen is explosive, and they get together pretty quickly which I liked. Overall, I liked the action and adventure in this story as much as the romance.

This audiobook was told in dual points of view via dual narration and was narrated by Elle Sonali and Zachary Johnson. Elle Sonali has a clear feminine voice which sounds intelligent and is perfect for Gwen. Zachary has a deep gravelly voice which sounds a bit older than the standard romantic Hero but works well for the admiral since he is a bit older.
