Liberated By the Warrior by Veronica Dean

I thought my life was over, until he showed up.

After Avi’s mysterious disappearance 3 years ago, things took a turn for the worse. The evil Nepharan overlords tightened their grip on the subjugated humans. Those who are not in prison camps have died long ago. Mya is one of these unlucky souls. She has lost everything: her family, her job, her spark for life. It is not until a mighty alien warrior comes crashing into her world that she begins to find it again.

Qroko, one of the fiercest warriors in the Zahothian military, is committed to liberating the subjugated humans from their icy hell. He knows that without their fertile women, his planet may face extinction. He knew his mission would take him across the universe, but the one thing he did not expect was to fall in love in the process.
She needs a savior. He needs to breed.

Liberated by the Warrior is the second book in the Guardians of the Universe series. Each title is standalone, but they are best enjoyed when read chronologically. Each installment contains brave, strong-willed heroines and dark, powerful aliens bound together by exhilarating action and steamy romance.
