A grumpy, secretive alien. A sweet, not-as-naive-as-she-seems human. A nefarious plot.

Although Mary has never had an easy life, she has always tried her best to maintain an optimistic outlook. But when she is abducted by aliens, it is difficult to find anything positive in the experience.

When she is temporarily abandoned by her kidnappers, she hopes to escape their clutches forever. Instead, she soon finds herself in even more trouble. Her only hope is a huge bull-like alien who should terrify her. Instead, her heart says to trust him.

Sendat has been working as an undercover agent for far too long. Although he believes in his mission, he fears he is becoming as heartless as those he seeks to bring to justice. And then he encounters a small, curvy female who awakens long-hidden feelings.

In order to protect her, he is forced to play a role he despises - and yet, she does not pull away from him. On the run and not sure who to trust, all Sendat knows is that he has to protect Mary. But even if he succeeds, will he have any choice except to give her up?

Read full series description

In Alien Abduction, readers are pulled into a galaxy where danger, desire, and destiny intersect in ways no Earthbound romance ever could. This standout series dares to ask: what happens when the abductors aren’t villains, but potential soulmates? And what if captivity reveals not just alien worlds, but hidden truths about love, identity, and survival?

Each story drops you into a unique slice of the universe—some lush, others brutal—where human heroines find themselves stolen from Earth and thrust into the arms of unexpected protectors, reluctant warriors, or fiercely loyal alien beings. But this isn’t a series about helpless damsels. These women fight, adapt, and challenge their captors, all while navigating the strange, thrilling gravity of interspecies attraction. Whether it’s through battles of will, forced proximity, or slow-burning trust, these connections are as much about emotional evolution as they are about chemistry.

What sets this series apart is how effortlessly it balances heart-pounding action with emotionally grounded intimacy. The world-building never overwhelms—it enhances. Alien cultures, power dynamics, and cosmic politics become the backdrop for deeply personal journeys, where the scariest part isn’t the abduction—it’s how much the heart might change in the process.

Perfect for fans of sci-fi romance who crave heat with high stakes, Alien Abduction doesn’t just explore what it means to be taken—it explores what it means to belong.
