Mercenaries Description:
Mercenaries review: 4 stars (Not Her Best Work) - While I personally think that Angela Knight could write a phone book & make it sexy, I wasn't that thrilled with this latest work. Mercenaries is a compilation of three related short stories that center around members of the mercenery starship Starrunner. The first story features Capt. Nathan August & his whirlwind love affair with religious planet cult member, Trinity Yeager. Trin is willing to to do anything to get off the zealots colony - including taking the captain up on his drunken bargain of passage in exchange for a night with both himself and Sebastion, his first officer, at the same time.
Quickly following is Sebastions story of falling head over heals for a dominant/submissive princess while the Starrunners merceneries are on a rescue mission.He's there bait, their spy to get into the palace. But can he handle being a submissive? Or does his captor really want to be captivated?
Lastly is the story of a female mercenery from Starrunner who made a cameo appearance in the first short story. During an interplanetary war where merceneries have been hired on both sides, Cassidy is embattled in a deadly dogfight against an opposing mercenery warrior. In a last ditch effort at survival she ditches onto a lonely planet only to be followed by her pursuer. When Rune sees that the impressive warrior is a woman he decides that in his culture - where women are scarce- she would make a perfect edition to his future gene pool.
All the stories had a spark & related well, but I just couldn't buy the concept that all 3 couples were ready to push their different cultures aside & marry after just 24 hours - 3 weeks. Real life is a little more complicated. But if your just trying to escape from said real life, than I guess kick back and enjoy yourself! 5 stars (Three terrific stories!) - Two of these were previously published as ebooks but have been wonderfully expanded. The third is brand new and fantastic.
If you love steamy, paranormal romance, this book should be at the top of your list.
As usual, Angela Knight has written three superb stories. Highly recommended! 5 stars (Angela Knight - A Top Erotic Writer!) - I have been following Ms. Knight for a while - her newest book Mercenaries does not disapoint! These three seperate stories are HOT - BSDM but tastefully done to entice me and I am not into BSDM themes. The female characters are real and are not in lesser roles at all. I don't want to give the stories away but forget TV , don't get a video - buy this book and make sure you have some good stimulation nearby!
