Sexy Sci Fi Fantasy
Abby is walking her dog through the mountainside when she is suddenly abducted by Nicolai a handsome but scary looking alien from Raiden. While unconscious she is transported to Nicolas’s spaceship and they travel to Nicolai’s home planet. On the way there Abby learns that Nicolai wants to bond and mate with and make her his queen. Although he is handsome he is also scary looking which freaks her out. Plus there is the business about being abducted. But as time goes by she warms to him and starts feeling different. Possible because Nicolai has injected her with his essence (and that isn’t a euphemism) Soon she can’t have enough of them and they bond is some truly racy scenes. But there are threats around the corner that can be a danger to their fledgling relationship. Can Abby survive in a hostile alien world and stay with the strange handsome alien man. This was a wonderful read and I enjoyed it a lot.

I'm addicted to the series.
Claimed By Nicolai was the first science fiction book that opened my eyes to the possibilities my imagination could reach. Denna Holm crafted the story of Abby Harris's introduction to the existence of alien lifeforms and how legendary tales are more fact than fiction. When Abby strays off a hiking path, she discovers a lizard-like man facing her. In shock, she tries to run away but gets injected by a drug that causes her to lose consciousness. Nicolai, the crown prince of Nekbet has claimed Abby as his mate and injected her with his shaprata. Abby is a fighter and immediately rejects the possibility of ever loving Nicolai. The story continues with Abby encountering creatures that love, hate, and one that can return her home. Will Abby accept Nicolai as her future husband or will she return to Earth at the first chance she gets?
I enjoyed the amazing detail that Holm gave to every character. Each of their personalities was unique which added to the ability to relate to their feelings. There are several scenes that are highly sexual in content, making this book for mature readers. The inquisitive nature of Abby and some of the dangers she faces make the pace of the story flow easily to the end of the book. This could easily have been a standalone novel, but I eagerly started reading the second book of The Raiden Warriors Series. I used to dislike this genre but have gained a new respect for authors like Denna Holm. She brought the story to life with her unique writing style. I am quite confident in saying this is a five-star book.
