Synopsis (Goodreads):
The last thing she expects is an instant mating with a handsome alien warrior…just before they are abducted by the deadly Kantos.

Commander Kaira Chand of the Australian Air Force knows the meaning of loss. She lost both her beloved husband and her father over recent years, and she vows never to let a man close again. As head of security for a secret weapons facility in the Australian desert, she’s fighting to protect the scientists working to defend Earth from invasion. That includes working with their allies, the Eon Warriors. What she never expected in her wildest dreams was to find herself instantly mated to a handsome, silver fox alien warrior.

Medical Commander Thane Kann-Eon lives to heal. He’s dedicated to keeping his crew aboard the warship, the Rengard, whole and healthy. Unlike his fellow warriors, he knows he’ll never mate. There hasn’t been a mating in his family for generations. Then a petite Terran commander changes everything. He’s instantly drawn to Kaira, and as soon as their hands touch, he’s stunned by the deluge of emotion that crashes over him. An unheard-of instant mating.

In the midst of their shocking connection, Kaira and Thane find themselves abducted by a Kantos strike team. Taken aboard a battlecruiser, they soon realize the insectoid aliens nabbed the wrong couple, and they are marked for execution. Now they face a wild race for survival that will take them to a distant, deadly world. They’ll both struggle with their raw, intense mating bond, against the backdrop of a Kantos proving ground where everything is out to kill them.
Thoughts on Soul of Eon: Getting mated and abducted within minutes makes things a little difficult to get to know the person on the other side of the mating bond. On both ends, mind you. While Thane might be a tiny bit more willing to go with the flow (as it were), even he's caught off guard by how quickly their mate bond snapped into place. Like I mentioned, throw in an abduction moments later and things are a little rough for our newest couple.

Not that it stops them from kicking Kantos booty when the opportunity presents itself. Nor does it stop them from surviving on a planet where everything seems to want to kill them. It also doesn't stop them from finding new allies. Or from finding alone time amongst said allies and that planet that wants to kill them.

Yup, Kaira and Thane are a good team. Sure, Kaira isn't interested in trusting anyone with her heart again (for reasons) and Thane is determined to withstand the mating bond since she's not interested being his one and only, but they end up solid and that's what matters.

A dangerous planet, new allies of all shapes and sizes, steamy kisses, and new info that might help them bring down the Kantos. Eventually. Regardless, thwarting a dastardly plot to weaken the Eon Warriors is always a good thing. *thumbs up*
