Summary

First contact changed things on Earth. It opened possibilities that were never before possible. In what started as a trip to participate in an cooperative study, Sara found herself a test subject for breeding compatibility by a species known as the Agraak. Determined that she would not submit to be bred and relocated to serve as a breeder for the rest of her life, she escaped into the wilds of a hostile subarctic planet. Not knowing who to trust, and almost dying on the ice flows, she is rescued by a male larger than life whom her body craves.

Vidok

A warrior-priest of the VaDorok, Vidok had long given up hope of finding his ulukska, his mate. When he finds a tiny female off-worlder on the ice flows of the far northern territory who brings forth his mating heat, his life changes. To keep her, he not only has to help her save her companions, but must also risk their love facing repercussions among his tribe and the intergalactic council.

Trigger-warning: the first two chapters contain elements involving rape.

Ok story but the narrator doesn't fit.

This is not the usual world building and romance from S J Sanders. It's definitely not up to the standard of the Orc Wife where the world building was much stronger but at this point when I'm reading for serious escape and entertainment (pandemic anyone?) it'll do. Guaranteed HEA with a little drama in the middle? I'm there. I won't say the narrator is awful because he does convey attitude and emotion and he definitely switches voices in a recognisable way for the characters BUT, and this is a big but, he does not fit this story. I think he'd be great in some other book, just not this one. As for the story, I feel like it wouldn't have lulled as much if it was shorter. I couldn't understand the "leave it and see" approach when so much that was so important to them was at stake, and that thing with the challenge just turned me off. This was going to be a 3-star rating up til that point. It's just not what I got accustomed to from this author. All the elements are there but not much is happening with them.
