This was another fun book by Bella Blair as well as another entertaining addition to the My Monster, My Protector Series of standalone books each written by a different author. I enjoyed getting to know both Zoe and Rassla in this book and am looking forward to exploring this books world more in the series the author mentioned it is the prequel for.
I received a free advanced reader copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
In the depths of space our worlds collide…
ZOE: After aliens invaded Earth I am abducted and taken on a spaceship, bound for an unknown fate. Not even the company of other prisoners grants any hope, as we are all struggling to survive.
Just as it seems the ship is about to crash, a mysterious savior appears—a powerful alien with eyes as dark as space.
He is arrogant and self assured, but also the most handsome man I have ever seen. Our headbutting quickly leads to… other things. Things that turn even stranger when matching tattoos appear on both our arms.
RASSLA: I am a solitary soldier. Hired to relentlessly rid the universe of criminals who can’t be touched by normal law enforcement. When my superiors recall me during a routine assassination operation to assign a new mission to me, I have no idea that soon my fate will take an unexpected turn.
My new assignment turns out to be anything but routine and the human female who challenges my patience and… other body parts, fascinates me endlessly.
The sudden appearance of matching tattoos on her and my arms make things even stranger and encourages me to dive deeper into the past of my species. Finding out that we are fated mates complicates my life.
Only one thing is certain, my superiors won’t like me taking a mate, nor will they allow me to retire in peace.
“Protected By The Alien Space Guardian” is a steamy alien romance standalone novella in the “My Monster, My Protector” series. It ties into the “Pandraxian” and the “Space Guardian’s Mate” series.

My Monster, My Protector
Full series details →The series
In a world where the things that go bump in the night don’t just lurk—they love, My Monster, My Protector offers a darkly intimate look at the bond between beast and beloved. Each book unearths a new, primal protector—creatures feared for their strength, shunned for their form, and yet drawn irresistibly to the women who refuse to flinch. These are not fairytales dressed in velvet; they’re raw, feral romances where danger is constant, and devotion runs deeper than instinct.
Read full series description
What makes this series stand apart isn’t just the heat or the tension—it’s the surprising tenderness found in places most would never think to look. Set in richly imagined worlds filled with ancient curses, shadowy forests, and hidden realms, the stories balance gritty survival with slow-burning connection. Heroines aren’t here to be saved—they’re survivors in their own right, and sometimes it’s the monster who learns what it means to be human.
Part paranormal romance, part monster fantasy, this series thrives on contrast: beauty and brutality, fear and longing, otherness and understanding. For readers who crave protective anti-heroes, haunting atmospheres, and stories that blend myth and menace with deep emotional payoff, this series slips under the skin and stays there.
