You know... Alek isn't exactly "stubborn", he's more inexpressive than anything else. I dunno, bit confused about that.
I don't get why Kendall just couldn't say, "I need to check on my sister and see if she's ok". That was a really weak plot device, her keeping that a secret to create suspicion and tension between the brothers. Also, why couldn't Kendall contact the refuelling station? Or even send a messenger? Wouldn't it be quicker that way to find out about her than demanding to leave the planet?

Felt really bad for Kendall when it was revealed how long she was in stasis for.tarana's review

Again, the story was going well until she starts harping on stuff for not just another book, but another series. This basically destroyed my enjoyment of THIS book.

This was a quick and easy read. I did expect a little more from the book. Everything unfolded quiet quickly but there wasn't much action. We do get that there's something happening when Bron gets kidnaped but then we don't get any resolution on it. Kendall and Alek's relationship also comes together fast there really wasn't much of a struggle. It was food but I think it felt a bit rushed.

Best yet
I absolutely loved this book. By far the best in the series or just as a stand alone. The love and compassion displayed by the characters was so emotive. I loved both of them and that some of the adventure even happened off world

Kendall had been studying to be a station engineer. Now she has been repossessed and sold due to her father's gambling debts. Who knew people could actually be repossessed!!! She awakes occasionally from the stasis she was placed in and finally awakes on the Galaxy Brides ship.
Alex has attended the breeding festival for 5 years now and still has not found his bride. He leaves the festival and finds Kendall in the forest, who had run away from the Breeding festival and his crystal grows. He vows to protect her from the men who sold her. He ensures her that if they marry he will et her to safety.
There was little interaction with the other brides on the ship in this book, possibly due to Kendalls stay in stasis. Kendall is a very smart adn capable. Her frantic attempts to get back home are to find and help her sister, not a rejection of Alex or his planet as in some of the other stories. Alex understand Kendall's resistance to their marriage so complications ensue.
Alex is stubborn and a closed off. He and Bron do come over as very chauvinistic and mysoginistic than their royal cousins. There is still lots of adventure and romance. When Kendall discovers just how much time has passed, it is truly heartbreaking. But it is good to know that Margot has her own story!!!!

I don't realy know how I feel about this one. To be honest I liked the first 4 books in this series best. Not that this one wasn't good and enjoyed it bit still I feel something missing. Perhaps I'm just not in the mood currently.
