5.0

This book gave me a whole Star Trek vibe and I loved it. Olivia gets Acquired (Kidnapped) from her apartment in the middle of the night after work and is focused to work alongside different alien races to save a group of humans from a human-alien-trafficking ring. Olivia was chosen because of her job as a criminal profiler. Olivia and the Commander are forced to work alongside each other are they try to free the humans from harm.

The book is well written and Pierce does a good job of making sure that even as we are getting induced by these different aliens, it doesn't become too overwhelming and we get to learn as Olivia does. The information isn't hard to follow and that makes the story a lot easier to understand.

The pace of the story is perfect it's not an opps I got kidnapped now I'm in love, we get to see how they both struggle with their feelings and understanding of each other's culture during the book.
