Possessed: Sep,I hate to knock this series since I am flying through it at record pace, but I keep finding annoying little things that drop from my review.
I debated only giving this bookas it was my least favorite of the series so far, I was looking forward to Emma amp the Princes story but it was just a little bleh,
Emmas personality shifted throughout the book, which is a bit annoying, She started as a quiet librarian who was so introverted she had no one in her life that might miss her, She questioned her ability to lead as queen and I did too, By the end of the book she was a complete badass, killing bad guys and saving her people, which just didnt match her church mouse personality,
Like previous books, there were unbelievable and questionable quirks in the story that I found annoying, In this one, we have a ruler of an ENTIRE PLANET, hopping into his own fighter ship to battle the bad guys right next to the planets elite alpha squad.
Think leader of a country battles next to top Army rangers/ Navy seals/etc, There is no backup leader or replacement plan in place so if the guy died in battle, the planet would no longer have a leader at all.
Just sounds like bad planning to me, lol,
I also felt like there was WAY too much
inner dialogue while Emma contemplates becoming royalty and mate of a Prince, when she has to step up to save the elders againstOrkun baddies, and again when she is being crowned Queen.
I get it, the girl just didnt feel worthy, but her selfdoubt made me seriously think she might not be right for the job either, She has pages of inner dialogue, pepping herself up, before each and every decision, which was just exhausting IMO,
I was planning to quit the series after Emmas book but it looks like the next one might be more of what Im looking for.
Tough and strong female meets misunderstood wild mountain man, Maybe he wont asktimes if every touch is ok, I mean these are some pretty lame amp passive alpha warriors, If verbal consent is important to you, this book is for you, lol, I personally just find it as exhausting as Emmas inner dialogue, I am the prince of Kalix until this moment, the last prince of Kalix, If I dont trust the tradition that weve relied on for so long, then who else will
Ive always been a bit of a loner, keeping to myself and my books, losing myself in other worlds and other characters.
There, in those pages, I had adventures and romances and friendships beyond anything I could cultivate in real life except for my one close friend, Jade, whos the opposite of me in pretty much every way.
As we walked through the palace, she kept up a stream of chatter, informing me about the politics of various countries back on Earth, and while I found the topic interesting, I couldnt help but wonder why she talked so much.
I was raised to keep my words few and consider everything I say before I speak, A prince has to be careful about what he says, and about who might hear, But there was an almost manic energy about her as she rambled, her hands moving as she spoke,
ampsatisfying 's
Khrelan, is the crown Prince of his people and a warrior in his own right, He had the responsibility of leadership thrust upon him at the tender age ofwhen his whole world went to hell in a handbasket, He has always put his people and the duty of being a king before his own wants and needs, It is also his decision whether or not the Earth women who have created mate bonds with his warriors get to stay and become part of his worlds society.
Just like any where there are people for and against the change the Earth women represent, Emma is the most shy and reserved of the Earth ladies abducted and rescued by the Kalixian warriors, She didn't believe in the mate bond at first, but watching some of her fellow Earth women become bonded has convinced her, So !ugh so that she longs for that connection her self, Both her parents are gone and she's a bit of an introvert with one best friend she truly misses, She of all the women is asked by the Prince to teach and you earth and it's customs, The mission it's their eyes meets and their hands touch the mate bond springs to life with a passion that blazes bright, Both try and deny what they know to be true, One out of duty and the other who doesn't believe they are worthy, Together they begin to build bridges that will unite two people and five a love beyond anything either could ever imagine, This was a terrific book and excellent addition to the series, I'm always left wanting more and can't wait for the next in the series to arrive! Highly recommend
Even though this one is a bit lovey dovey, I enjoyed it.
IDK. lol Emma is a shy give that is chosen by the king to stay by his side so he can learn the human ways, She happens to be his fated mate and the alien race is safe from extinction, xD This was alright. I guess I just didn't feel the stakes or understand their reasons for denying the romance in the beginning,
Everything just felt too easy, and I pretty much skimmed thend half, I love Presley Hall though so I won't hold it against her and will definitely continue the series, Filled with exciting passion and excitement
This addition to the Khalaxian series was such an amazingly awesome story! We finally are able to get to know more about the Prince of Kalix, Khrelan! And what an extremely passionate, romantic prince is he!!!
Prince Khrelan is stern but has good intentions for his people.
But, now that their women have been demolished and the chances of child bearing taken away, leaving their race on the brink of extinction, he has a difficult decision to make for the future of his people.
With the mate bonds that have transpired with a few of his Warriors, he is in need of getting to know a Terran women better and chooses Emma.
Emma is a quiet, shy female that has been hoping and wishing that one of the Khalaxian men would choose her or show interest, When Prince Khrelan asks her to come stay with him in the palace to better learn about the Terran women habits and life back on Earth, What she wasnt expecting was to fall for the prince nor become Queen of Kalix, Did I say the last one was my favorite Well this one quickly took its place, We finally make it to Kalix in this book, and we get to read about Emma and Prince Khrelan! Emma is an independent loner type who is also a hopeless romantic a girl after my own heart LOL.
I immediately resonated with her backstory and was excited to read her book, When the Kalixian warriors and human women land back on the mens home planet of Kalix they are greeted by the Prince, and Emma immediately feels a connection with him.
He feels the same pull and requests that Emma comes and stays at the palace with him so he can “learn more about the human women” and decide wether or not they should be allowed to stay on Kalix.
Of course, its all an excuse to be near her though he would never admit it, They try to deny their bond, but of course they eventually give into each other and the buildup is so good! None of these books are really a slowburn, per se, but this one is more so than the others making it that much more sweet when they finally accept the bond.
Emma and Khrelan worked so well together, Him pulling her out of her shell, and her helping him to not be so consumed by his self restraint and sense of duty, I keep saying Im going to take a break from this series, but the epilogue always pulls me into the next story!! I cant wait to read about Jade and Brele.
A sweetly addictive story to add to this series! Reading Emma and the Prince's story was a slow burn to a fantastic love story, Emma is a character that is easy to connect with, she is shy and holds herself back from standing out from the crowd, Her backstory trickles in slowly and she ends up being a character that you want to see find her happy ending, The Prince has so much going on and his decisions are all about working for the good of his people and doing the right thing, There's a mystery that never gets addressed, so I guess it's the thread that leads to the next book Broken, which I really am reading next, lol, because I love this writer's style and this story arc of this series and I want answers to my questions! The action builds slowly, but when it hits, it hits like a tsunami, with hot Irisa connection and a return of the slavers.
This book could be read as a standalone, I have been reading them out of order and I get what's going on, but it might be better to read them in order.
Whichever way you roll, I think you'll enjoy reading these stories as much as I did, just based on the ease of reading, the writing style, and the content.

Emma and Prince Khrelan Emma was sold to aliens by her government in exchange for alien technology.
Along with the other women that were sold, they were rescued by Kalixian warriors, another race of aliens, that are more humanoid, That is aside from their golden bronze skin and horns, Though Emma didnt have a great life on Earth and was working herself to the bone for a tiny apartment and just trying to make ends meet.
So when they are taken to Kalix and put up at a fancy apartment at no charge while the prince decides what to do with the women, which is made harder by the fact that some of them have mated to Kalixians, Emma doesnt mind at all and hopes they can stay.
She likes the Kalixians she has met and it seems that the fact that some have mated to humans and at least one of the women is pregnant, this seems to be the solution that works best for both races.
Especially since the Kalixian females have mostly died out,
So when Prince Khrelan asks Emma to stay at the palace in order to learn more about humans and make a more informed decision, Emma has no choice to go.
She had seen the prince once before and liked how handsome and strong he was, He was orphaned at twelve and became the ruler, he cant be crowned King until he mates,
Khrelan and Emma discover very quickly that they are fated mates, However, the prince is advised soon after that his world is in turmoil, Some of the men thinking that the females from Earth are the solution to their problems and the saviors of the race, while others think that mixing the two races dilutes their own and it is better to die out gracefully than to weaken their race by mixing with humans.
So the prince is determined to stay away from Emma, Of course he cant seem to do that no matter how hard he tries,
The book is told in dual points of view via dual narration, It was narrated by Meg Price and C, J. Grey. Meg does a good job and I actually like her male voice better than her female voice which sounds a tiny bit whiny, C. J. Grey is great and has a deep masculine voice which is perfect for the Prince, The story in this book wasnt my favorite, I guess I didnt like all the politics and the detractors, Though I loved that Prince Khrelan stands up for his woman like he does,
