REVIEW - His Goddess (Tarilean Adventure Series Book 1) by D. Morrissey

The Book
Release Date: 30 July 2018
Goodreads Link

Shot down on a strange hostile planet, Captain Cora Carter isn't sure which is worse: the vicious space pirates or the hot, possessive alien who insists that she's his mate. 

Science Fiction Romance, Alien Romance, Fantasy Dying Earth, Language of Love is Unspoken, Don’t judge a book by its cover 

When Cora Carter signed up to command the U.S.S. Christina and its five female crew, she never expected to be chased by pirates through a worm-hole in space or forced to crash land on a hostile planet where just about everything wants to kill or eat her. Setting out to find water for the crew proves to be her most dangerous mission yet. But, water becomes the least of her worries when she finds, instead, a big, hunky brute in a loincloth who insists that she’s his mate. 

Horok, crowned prince of Tarilax, is taking a break from the heavy demands of his throne when he sees a ship go down in the forest. His fear that the piratical Goridians have arrived to threaten his village again drives him to investigate. What he finds is something much better. The gods have delivered to him a divine goddess of his very own, and right when he’s in such dire need of a mate, too! 

There’s no question that he must have her. So, he does what any self-respecting Tarilean warrior in his shoes would do. He steals her. Now, if he can just convince her to stay. 

Reader Alert! 
If smoking hot, possessive aliens aren’t really your thing, then you may not enjoy reading His Goddess, Book One of the Tarilean Adventure Series. For the rest of us who love a sexy, sizzling story with a dash of humor and a happy ending, His Goddess is both stimulating and satisfying. 

My Review  4 STARS
**My thanks to the author and Hidden Gems for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

This was a seriously good book, however there were too many things that did not work for me to give it a full five stars.

For example in needs better editing, o found that Horok our main man was called Haelic once, there is also the fact that we find out our main woman Cora is expecting twins, then in the epilogue she has triplets instead.

The ending bugged me the most.  The story was going along well and then just as Cora and her crew were being introduced the the 'village' and Horoks family the book ended, then gave us an epilogue a few months down the line.

The characters were good, the creatures created and the language were well put together, but lots of other things let this book down.

This said the story line had me turning page after page entranced with this new world in a galaxy not known to humans.  

I certainly gave this book the stars for the story line rather than for everything else, as this book could be a truly epic read with a little fixing.

I liked the story line and the characters so much i have already downloaded book two in the series.
