These are books I’ve read and really enjoyed. Most of
what I talk about will probably be paranormal/scifi but not always. Although
it’s rare, I do read some contemporary.
This week is: Adverse
Effects (Saving Caeorleia Book 2)
by Alicia Nordwell
Blurb:
Dade, human-Caeorleian hybrid and ex-military grunt,
doesn’t fit in—not with humans, not with aliens, not anywhere. He’s always on
the outskirts, angry, and people aren’t sure they can trust him. When he
encounters a compatible tziu named Yaseke, secrets, misunderstandings, and
attacks nearly prevent the two from making a connection Dade sorely needs. Dade
and Yaseke face challenges that two newly-joined males should never have to
endure.
From traitorous council members, to sadistic aliens
who plan to sell them as slaves, to meeting a mysterious race of revered aliens
called Collectors, Dade and Yaseke struggle to stay together—and even rescue
two missing youths, who’ve also lost their parents to the same betrayer.
Someone from Dade’s past is at the root of everything
he’s suffered. No way can he let them get away with what they’re planning, but
can Dade stop them on his own? If he can’t let go of his isolation and risk the
pain letting others—letting Yaseke—in will bring, can he save Caeorleia in
time?
