Protected By the Alien Commander by Presley Hall

Gorgeous alien commanders don’t fall for Earth girls with criminal records. Do they?

I’ve got a list of regrets a mile long, starting with the time I went to jail and ending with the fact that not long after I got out, I was abducted by alien smugglers. As if that isn’t bad enough, a split-second decision when their ship crashes nearly costs me my life.
And when I wake up after the crash, everything has changed.
I’m no longer being held captive by brutal space pirates. Instead, I’ve been rescued by a group of alien warriors called Zivonians. Their leader, Ryven, claims he wants to help me, offering me safe haven on their massive ship.
I know how the universe works, though. You never get something for nothing, so there has to be a catch somewhere. Despite the temptation to trust this powerful, handsome warrior, I know I can’t afford to open up my heart.
But when I make a mistake and have to face the consequences of my actions, the only one willing to stand up for me… is Ryven.
Everyone I knew back on Earth saw me as nothing but the sum total of my screw-ups, but Ryven looks at me differently.
He looks at me like someone worth protecting. Someone worth fighting for. Someone worth loving.
Will he still feel that way when he finds out about my past?
