Synopsis (Goodreads):
XIK’N
My mission is simple. One: retrieve the shuttle. Two: don’t get caught.


The tiny human female who answers my transmission is just a bonus. Every ounce of my being tells me to take her, touch her, and taste her. I earn her trust instead, and we talk for hours through our shuttles.

When hostile humans turn on May and her friends, she steals the shuttle for herself. Now she’s out there on a mountain full of deadly scourge with armed males at her heel. May is mine, and I must find and claim her before they do.

MAY
Xarc’n warriors walk around their shuttle in their birthday suits. Ask me how I know.


When the hulking alien warriors first came to Earth, I was terrified of them, but this purple protector makes me feel safe. Besides, after surviving through the bugpocalypse, I’ve learned the Xarc’n warriors are our allies, even if they do have sharp teeth and horns.

The people I live with aren’t so friendly though, and when I realize I’ve outstayed my welcome, I steal their shuttle and save my friends from certain doom. Now we have armed mercs searching for us, hordes of bugs eager to eat us, and a twice-stolen shuttle. What have I gotten myself into?
Thoughts on Hunter's Price: We're back in the mountains with those always hunky, sometimes clueless Xarc'n Warriors and YESSSSSS. This time around we have Xik'n and May and DOUBLE YESSSSSS.

So. Xik'n. One of the warriors from the contingent that abandoned their previous post and made their way to Earth. The big guy doesn't THINK he wants a mate, but he can't get May out of his head after their first encounter. And after actually meeting her? Yeah, he's a goner. Being that he doesn't have much (read: any) experience with women, he's a little possessive and a little pushy and he's absolutely smitten with his human in all ways, shapes or forms.

Well, he's not actually thrilled by how May might not be sticking around, but the big guy figures he can work on that.

As for May, she's had a run of bad luck with the people she's joined up with. As in, most of them have ended up dead. No lie, that kind of weighs on May. She doesn't want to be the reason the new group she's with meet a bad end. So she plans on setting out on her own. What she doesn't expect? A big purple warrior who likes to hold her and courts her by carrying her around everywhere. Yeah, he can be a little bossy, but May finds out she doesn't mind that part.

A stolen shuttle, a whole lot of bugs, a bad group of raiders, a rescue mission, a purple hunk who will fight anything and everything to keep his lady safe, and a lady who figures out relying on others doesn't put them in danger. GOOD STUFF!
