Book excerpt: Roses are red, violets are blue, Rhork's a psycho and he's a space pirate, too. I thought he liked me. He's been my only source of company for the past rotation that I've been held captive. But when he rejects me in front of everyone, I get the shrov out, determined to find humans on another satellite far, far away from this mess that is my life. Except I don't exactly receive the warm homecoming I expect. Instead, this homecoming is more of the dangerous, stabby, stabby variety...and to get out of the new mess I've found myself in, I might just need a space pirate's help. But what will I have to trade him for it? __________ Taken to Kor is book 5 in the Xiveri Mates series! This is an adrenaline-filled romp through space with a four-armed alien and plus sized human heroine. Best read after book 4, this is a romance with lots of blasters and battles, and one where the villain gets the girl.
