This was another great addition to the Xarc'n Warriors Series. This book focuses on Aanya & Haax’l while they are moving some of the members of the New Franklin group to another group who needs more help now that the New Franklin nest of scourge has been cleared. This book can be read as a standalone and while I have read other books from this series (Books 01 - 04, Books 06 & 07, 08, Book 11) I haven't read them all yet. The epilogue at the end was a really cute and mentions some characters from the Xarc'n Warriors: Mountains spin off series that I look forward to reading in the future along with Nov’k & Heather's story in the next book.

Aanya
I should never have slept with Haax’l.
The grumpy alien warrior claims he doesn’t want a mate, but now he’s glaring at me and acting super possessive. All while telling me he’s not interested.
Argh! Talk about mixed messages!
Well, he and his magnificently muscled butt, regal horns, and chiseled jaw can go take a hike, because I’m looking for a warrior who knows what he wants: me. And when I find him, I’m never letting go.
Now if only Haax’l will stop scaring everyone away.
Haax’l
When I first arrived on Earth, finding a compatible female was my priority.
But now, I’ll do anything to avoid a mate bond.
Females only make hunters weaker; I know this for a fact. Too bad my body had its own ideas.
I long to wrap my arms around Aanya and never let go, but that is exactly what I’m trying to avoid, so I warn her off with gruff words and a mean growl.
Even though I know deep down that Aanya is MINE, and I will never let her go!
This story takes place chronologically after Xarc’n Warriors Book 1-8 as well as Xarc’n Warriors: Mountain 1-6 but can be read as a stand-alone as long as you are familiar with the series. Lots of action and steam ahead, and as always, HEA guaranteed!
