Tornn's Mate

Worldship Brides, Book 1

By: Sue Lyndon

Narrated by: Tor Thom, Heather Firth

Given to an alien brute. Forced to become his bride...

The rundown human worldship is a bleak place, but it's my home, and it's where all the people I care about live. My mother, my sister, my students, and my sweet fiancé, Nathan. I never imagined I'd be forced to leave...forced to become the mate of a barbaric Darrvason admiral.

The survival of humankind hangs in the balance, and I'm not the only woman whose life has been upended. Over two thousand young women are set to be handed over to the powerful aliens in exchange for fuel, repairs, and assistance in reaching a habitable planet. Payment. That's what we are, and we have no choice.

My new husband, Admiral Tornn, is a huge, musclebound beast who expects my absolute obedience. In his culture, I'm little more than his property. But to my shock, he awakens a yearning within me unlike anything I've ever known, and his firm punishments and savage lovemaking are causing me to question everything I've been taught.

Tornn's Mate is a dark romance intended for mature listeners.

Book Review: Torrn’s Mate by Sue Lyndon

Torrn’s Mate is an intensely possessive and highly dominant romance that explores themes of self-discovery and surrender. The story delves into the realization that the path we believe we should follow may not always align with what we truly need. It also embraces the idea that relinquishing control to another—especially in a consensual and trusting dynamic—can be both freeing and fulfilling. The book portrays this without shame, affirming that it’s okay not to always be the one in charge. For readers who enjoy passionate, dominant romances with a strong emotional core, I highly recommend Torrn’s Mate.

Great book just wish there were really guys out there that love like the hero

Stockholm

“Villainized” the fiancé at the end to make the plot easier to swallow. The “saviors” had every right to rebel. With their women taken in exchange for help, the guys weren’t even given “the butt plugs” in compensation.
…And what is it with whipping with straps?
Oh yeah, abuse, demean, toss out lame approval - spirit broken. Stockholm
Biological responses are automatic. Don’t fool yourself that it says anything beyond simple physiology. Women can’t even get a break in space.

Tornn's Mate

Tornn’s Mate is the first book in the WorldShip Brides series. This is Admiral Tornn and Ellie’s story.

Tornn is a “barbaric Darrvason admiral. She is among the first wave of human women to go to the Darrvason. The women are being traded for food and fuel. The aliens need women to breed.

Ok I need a cleaning servant android, just saying….

The Narrators are Tor Thorn and Heather Firth. I loved listening to these 2 narrators as they read to me, especially Tor Thorn. That was a sexy deep voice! Heather Firth did a fantastic job as well.

I received this book off Kindle Unlimited and bought the audio from Audible.

Just WOW.

It’s dark, dirty and wonderful. If you don’t like spanking or dubious consent this book is not for you. If you like the above go for it. I Loved this book and can’t wait to read/listen to the next one. The narrators were fantastic.

Tornn and Ellie

This book is the first in a series and tells us the story of Ellie one of the 30 human women granted to the Darrvason race in exchange for help with the dying Worldship. The Worldship contains all that is left of the human race. It has been travelling in space for years in search of a planet on which to make a new home but now the ship is dying and without the treaty formed with the Darrvasons would soon be unable to sustain life.

The male who chooses her is Admiral Tornn, at first Ellie is terrified but will comply with whatever he demands as the lives of her sister and mother have been threatened by the commander of the Worldship who is also Ellie's uncle and there is no love lost there.

Over time a closeness and bond forms between this unlikely pairing, which ultimately leads to love but the journey is not Smooth, to tell you more would spoil what I found to be an enjoyable and different sci-fi romance, it's a somewhat sensual dark love story but it is a love story and one that I enjoyed very much.

The wonderfully performed narration is by Heather Firth and Tor Thorn who both do an incredible job bringing the tensions and emotions of the characters to life.

I look forward to listening to the next book in the Worldship Brides series

Keeping secrets

Get so tired of stories where the H/h keep secrets. I just want a story line that the issues are outside of the relationship not in it. Also I wish I would have known ahead of time that this is a type of bdsm. I wouldn’t have bought it if I would have known. So I missed about a quarter of the book if not more because I skipped certain scenes.
