Synopsis (Goodreads):
Tiny, sassy, but oh so fierce

Rihanna is condemned to a twenty-year sentence on the most savage prison planet in the sector for a crime she didn’t commit. On the day of her transfer, she’s offered a deal to commute her sentence: an arranged marriage with a grumpy orc-minotaur who has muscles for days, devilish red eyes, and an insufferably smart mouth. Despite his species’ reputation for being violent brutes, Rihanna soon finds herself drawn to the gentle giant that lurks beneath his terrifying appearance.

Fearsome, savage, and yet so fluffy

When the agency informs Zatruk he’s been matched, the last thing he expects is for his mate to be such a tiny human. With his people rapidly entering blood rage, and the looming threat of war, he needs a queen to stand by his side as he strives to save his people, not a delicate flower. But he soon discovers that behind her fragile appearance, his little female hides a fierce and dauntless soul, with a sassy attitude that stirs him in unexpected ways.

With time running out, will Rihanna be the blessing he needs to achieve the peace his people desperately desire, or will they self-destruct?
Thoughts on I Married a Minotaur: The PMA strikes again! In a good way. A very good way, really, since they not only managed to save a sassy smuggler from a prison planet, but put her in a position to help a group of people from self-destructing.

That said, Rihanna had to put the pieces she'd been given together to figure out what she needed to do. So the PMA got things moving, but Rihanna and Zatruk had the vision and drive to see it through. All while seeing exactly how compatible they were.

Frankly, Rihanna showed up at exactly the right time. Zatruk's people were on the verge and while he had a plan to keep them from descending into their blood rage and destroying themselves, he lacked the galactic know-how to make it happen. Rihanna, on the other hand, had exactly that. Plus, the lady knows a good thing when she sees it. Or him. And she REALLY likes what she sees in Zatruk.

I've thoroughly enjoyed all these less-than-human aliens and the human women who rock their worlds. Here's to the PMA doing their thing for a long time to come. *thumbs up*
