Taken - A Pairing Warriors of Light Book 3 (Bataari New World Series) / Bataari New World Series (ePub)

Book 3 in the Warriors of Light Bataari New World Series

They were both warriors from different worlds.  Both determined, aggressive and dominant.  Both wanted control.  Love?   One didn't need it.  The other didn't understand it. 

Xor had battled since coming of age and joining the battle group.  All of his 289 years moving from one solar system to another.  Rising to be Commander of his own battle group.  His job, protect the fleet.  His team was often the first in and the last out.  They took the brunt of any new aggressor and put down any threat hard.  There was no room for compassion.  No room for distraction.  He had a job to do and lives depended on him. 

Their females were gone.  A virus sent by an aggressor over 300 years ago, had wiped out all female life as well as their own world in the process.    Their world had been left behind along with the devastation and the fleet had searched for another chance of life and along the way, tried and failed to correct the damage to the last of their females.  They were long gone now.  They were a world in desperate need of another chance of having a future.  They'd found it here, in this blue world.  There were challenges and hardships, this species, destructive to their own kind.  Now, they just had to keep the future they needed so badly and the new Joint Task Force with Earth was going to make that happen.

Sharon was a psychologist by choice and a Commander with special forces by damn hard work.  She had fought tooth and nail to get her commission.  Had endured sexism, discrimination and outright derogatory verbal attacks on her abilities and the fact that she was female.  But she'd shown them all where it counted, on the battlefields and training grounds.  She was tough and courageous, took no shit and gave nothing away.  It had all been worth it.  She'd finally found her place in the world.  Leading a team to achieve the unachievable.  No one messed with her any longer.  They took out the bad guys and made the world a better place and she loved it.  It was everything she ever needed.  Everything she ever wanted.

She wasn't interested in the politics of why the Bataari had come to Earth, she just knew, she had to be on their team ....
