Resisting Maxu

Clecanian, Book 6

By: Victoria Aveline

Narrated by: Stephen Dexter

Being kidnapped by aliens and whisked away to another planet isn't always a bad thing . . .

Meg isn't like the other alien abduction survivors. She doesn't miss much of anything from her former life—least of all her deadbeat husband. Her Clecanian rescuers gave her a fresh start, and she plans to enjoy it. Being recognized as a mate is not on her agenda. Too bad a grumpy, possessive, and all-kinds-of-sexy alien has other plans for her . . .

Maxu never expected to find his fated mate. But he recognized Meg at first sight. Sadly, she's not as pleased with the match as he is. She's guarded in a way he doesn't entirely understand and pushes him away at every turn.

Meg can run, but she soon realizes there's nowhere to hide—not from a hunter like Maxu. But that doesn't mean she'll give in easily. If he wants a happily ever after with her, he'll have to fight for it.

Good thing he's not above playing dirty.

Contains mature themes.

Take me to clecania!!!

I love this book have read it more than 100 times. The narrator does an excellent job at bringing the story alive.

Love maxu

I love maxu toughness and danger sexy. I wish he would have done more of his mercenary stuff thou but still great story. Love the humor and funny fighting between the two

I’m so invested!

I absolutely love this series and couldn’t wait for this book. Did not disappoint. Obsessed with the planet and people and plot- all of it. Stephen Dexter could read a microwave manual and I’d be just as enamored by his voice 😍 the author has such a beautiful mind to think up these places and develop the culture and characters. Love love love.

Amazing! A favorite in the series.

All of these books are so good, but the cat and mouse dynamic between Maxu and Meg is a fave for me. It was also very enjoyable to hear about all of the different cities they visited while traveling all over Clecania. The twist at the end has me dying to know what comes next. Narrator is fantastic! His voice gives me chills.

Loving the continuation of this series!

Meg wanted to explore and be free, not trapped again by a new mate. Maxu has always resented the marriage traditions of his planet. When his mating marks show up, it shocks everyone. I was happy with how their relationship developed and Meg didn’t just accept it right away. Maxu handled things as best as his could being a mated male. But the real shocker was the epilogue! This is a political plot now. Can’t wait to see what happens in the next book.

human voice

thank you for not using virtual voice listening to read or the computer read is horrifying

Love This Series!!

I love this series. I’ve listened to every book in this series so far, and each one is unique and interesting. The romance between each Male and Female Main Character (MC) is a stand alone story, but it also has a continuing story throughout all the books. Each couple is connected to the other couples in some way, and sometimes the other couples will either be mentioned by name or make an appearance in other books which is nice.

This particular book deals with the themes of overcoming insecurity and feelings of worthlessness coming out of a prior relationship, and learning to trust again after being hurt. I like how the author makes each character relatable with both of the MCs needing to deal with their past hurts, growing, and helping each other to change into better versions of themselves.

Also, I love the narrator in this series. Stephen Dexter brings the story to life and helps you get immersed in the world of the book. He has a great range of voices for both the male and female characters. Another thing I like about him, is how he acts out the sounds that the characters make when they talk or make noises. For example, when they’re laughing, sighing, grunting, etc… He really brings the story to life.

I can’t wait for the next book to be released as an audio book. I look forward to listening to the continuation of the stories in this world.

Didn’t Expect That Ending

Wow! I didn’t expect that to happen! I so excited about the rest of the series after that ending. Will Maxu and Meg play a part in the upcoming books? I hope so cause I really liked his character.

I love her BOOKS

This is one of my favorite series I have ever book they are just so amazing!!!

So different

somehow to me this story was so different than typical love stories. Meg in a way was so relatable to me as she resisted Maxu. I don't know why but Meg was so relatable. Maybe it was her crappy Earth life, her strong dominant character. whatever it was, I really enjoyed this story
