Sophia is eighteen years old. Despite a strict upbringing, she has secured an entry-level clerical job with a legal firm and kept it for two years. Now she's in trouble. Her family have thrown her out, and she is not earning enough to support herself.

Elizabeth is thirty-two years old. She is one of Sophia's bosses, and she has long taken an interest in Sophia, offering time and time again to help her if she needs anything. These offers are dismissed by Sophia, who doesn't believe she is worth supporting until a day comes when she has nowhere else to turn.

This is the story of how Sophia is taken in by Elizabeth and her two partners - Charlie (32) and Josh (29), who are brothers. They are used to having a "little" in their lives, and Sophia assumes that role, though she had not heard of ageplay up to that time.

I really enjoyed this book. All four characters are solid and likeable, and the requisite feels are there. I find some aspects of the ageplay lifestyle discomfiting, aspects this story doesn't shy away from, and the CNC aspects of this developing poly relationship sometimes made me a little uncomfortable. Never enough to ruin my enjoyment of the story, though, and all sex scenes (which are fabulous) are totally consensual.

Prospective readers should definitely read the publisher's content warning before embarking on this journey. I enjoyed it very much.

A sequel to this book, featuring the same polycule, has recently been published, but there are no loose ends in this book, which can easily be read as a stand-alone.

How do I begin? This was poorly written. First of all the use of English was substandard. I'm sorry but many many words were used incorrectly. It was like the author just put down the first thing she thought of regardless of whether or not the sentence was constructed correctly or if the word was used correctly or even if the correct word was used. It desperately needed to be edited by someone who could point out that this

"...she moaned, loudly, uncontrolled and unexpecting of how that was going to feel."


is not a properly constructed sentence. That sort of thing is what an edit and rewrite is for. This is only one example.

The book consisted mostly of dialog. There was little to no description or any attempt to set any sort of scene. There was NO sci fi world building. As a minor example of this how can an alien be named Graham Masterson? This is an alien whose people had only had one minor contact with Earth about a hundred years ago. Shouldn't he have been called something like T'Car Sharil? The story jumped around sort of like a 4th grader saying "and then this happened and then this happened and then this happened." The characters were cardboard. The sex scenes were uninteresting. The interactions between all the characters were unbelievable.

Gosh I hate to pan a book like I'm doing here but it just wasn't good. I'd like to tell this author to try again, get an editor or even a friend with an English degree to read it first and then rewrite until it's polished.

Korey May Johnson is an excellent author. I've read several of her books and I have enjoyed each and every one of them. His Untamed Mate is no different.

Ellie was 18 when she was kidnapped from Earth by aliens and sold to a lizard to be his pet. It turned out that she could hear a special language that humans weren't supposed to be able hear. She is able to use what she hears to help herself and the other slaves. After a year and having to be spanked by the Prime slave a few times, she becomes Prima. One day, some Swarii captives come before her owner so that he can "interrogate" and execute them. When her owner goes to shoot the captain, she stops him from doing it, saving the captain, for which she is punished.

Later, she has to go down to the cell to fix the locking mechanism and ends up touching Graham, the captain of the Swarii. When they touch, sparks fly, and they end up mated. Neither of them is what the other one expected to end up married to, but the Swarii, who look like humans, mate for life, so they are stuck with each other.

I really enjoyed the story. Graham isn't afraid to spank Ellie when she doesn't behave, but Ellie isn't going to back down and turn into a submissive woman just because that's what Graham expects of her. It leads to a lot of misunderstandings since neither of them really understand the other's POV. While I liked Graham, there were a few times I wanted to give him a few good whacks around the ear hole. I think he might have learned a little bit of something from that. But, it is a great start to a new series, and I can't wait to read the next books in the series.

I got an ARC for this book and you got my honest and voluntary review.

Finding an anthology where you want to read some of the authors is great. Finding one where you want to read all 23 authors in it is even better. That's what I found in Alien Alphas. I'm just going to touch on some of the stories because there just isn't enough room for me to talk about all 23.

Strangeways by Addison Cain 5*

Wow. That's about all I can say about this one. I really hope that some more books come out of this particular universe because I really liked it a lot.

OMG. The sex in this story? Completely out of the galaxy. I mean, yeah. I loved the descriptions of Phi's... equipment. Sounds mostly pretty hot. Great story.

You may think that you may not have an interest in tentacles, but really, this story will change your mind and make a believer out of you.

Finding Sitra by Jane Henry 4.5*

This is an interesting story with all kinds of layers in it. The title can be taken in so many different ways, which is totally awesome. I really loved that.

Cy and Sitra take a circuitous route to getting to their HEA. They had known each other for a long time, but then there was a year when they were wrapped up in their own pain and on issues and then they have to figure everything out.

I liked this story pretty well, especially the wordplay with the title. Clever wordplay is always highly appreciated.

Sold to the Enemies by Sara Fields 4*

Sara Fields brings us into a whole new scifi world for her offering.

Aubrie and Edogan's story is great. He rescues her from being sold as a slave. As the commander of the forces which destroyed her forces, not without losses of his own, he's well within his rights to take her as a slave and to punish her.

I like the fact that Edogan takes the time to learn about Aubrie and to help her figure things out. Aubrie is a strong character in herself, and Edogan lets her be that strong character. Good story.

Fated Possession by Cari Silverwood 5*

This story takes place in the same world as Cari's Machinery of Desire stories. It can be read without being familiar with the stories, but it's nicer to have the extra background of it.

Blue is a human dragged to another world for her blood. Sassik is a man who wants to find out what his destiny is. Neither one of them is what the other expects, but somehow they end up together and all is good.

I love all these books, so getting another little look into this world and another viewpoint on what's going on is excellent. I really liked Blue and Sassik's story.

Drakeon Rescue by Lee Savino and Lili Zander 4*

I love the Draekon universe. This book takes place in the same universe, at the same time as the other books, but isn't really connected with them in any other way.

Tin has been held by evil scientists and tested by them to try to find his mate. To that end result, they have abducted Dor from Earth and are going to test her. Cro is Tin's best friend and refuses to leave him as a captive.

I love these guys and them chemistry that flows between the 3 of them, and how protective they all are about each other. It's nice to have a different perspective as to what's going on in that 'verse.

Under Contract by Jaye Peaches 4.5*

We all know that keeping a contract, any contract, is really important. In Jaye Peaches' story, keeping a contract is everything. Breaking a contract totally ruins you, and no one will do any kind of business with you.

Brax is an extraction specialist. He signs contracts to go out and extract women from bad situations. Kleo is his newest job. He's supposed to go get her for her guardian.

Brax is intense. I like that a lot. He knows what he wants and he isn't afraid to get it. Kleo fights hard, first against herself and then for what she wants. I think they are a great pair with extremely extreme chemistry. Very hot, very lovely.

Her Zandian Masters by Renee Rose. 5*

I love Renee's big purple horned aliens. I mean, seriously, with that description, what's not to love?

Eslyn is one of the few Zandian women left in the entire universe. Her former "mates" forced her to do something horrible, and when she was brought before the prince, he sentenced her to rehabilitation. Granit, Laake, and Damon are the three guards who have been watching her, and now it's their job to teach her how to be a good Zandian.

Generally, Renee doesn't write menage in this series, because it turns out big purple horned aliens also tend to be somewhat possessive. However, it really works in this case, and it is hot af. The guys are awesome and caring, and they go out of their way to show Eslyn how much she matters. Totally awesome.

The Ghost in the Stars by Sophie Kisker 4.5*

This universe is going to be so good, I can just tell.

Siridin ends up rescuing Keelie, a human nectar slave. He's attracted to her even if he doesn't want to be, because he holds himself as responsible for horrible things that were out of his control. She hears voices while she's on the ship. But what does that mean for her?

OMG, this story is just so awesome. The idea behind it is so filthy and obscene but in such a good way. I can't wait to see where the rest of the universe goes and how filthy it gets.
