Publisher Description
Rex Dravon, a notorious smuggler, is one of the Outcasts' most important allies. Many of the Outcasts' philosophies and approaches to life in general appeal to him, but he's hesitant to commit to any cause. Hoping to entice Rex into committing, Arton the Heretic, tells Rex that he is genetically compatible with one of the "captive brides", a feisty blonde named Thea Cline.
Thea is still enraged that she was dragged from Earth without her permission, and she's recovering from a horrendous tragedy. She sneaks aboard the Marauder hoping to steal a weapon. Instead she's confronted by the ship's handsome commander. She knows to be wary of Rex because of his reputation, but she's instantly, and powerfully, drawn to him. His offer to help her escape comes a little too quickly and she fears he has ulterior motives. Is he simply hoping to lure her into his bed--a fate she's not sure she'd mind--or is his motivation more nefarious?
Note to Readers: This book contains detailed descriptions of sizzling passion only suitable for mature readers. Certain plot elements carry on from book to book. Though Marauder can be read as a standalone, it's more fun to read the series in order. Enjoy!

Rhodye hybrid smuggler conquered by human woman
It’s a little mendering and unfocused at time, but Cyndi Friberg’s Outcasts series has a lot going on. A Hrbinger who insists his visions of warrior elves are the real deal. The Overlord can’t catch a colony-founding break, what with battle cats attacking his men, and human women - potential mates every one of ‘em - distacting his men, and eager couples who’e found their mates lined up around the spaceship awaiting mating services… Rex is sure happy he’s not an Outcast. He doesn’t want involvement in any business but his own smuggling. The Outcasts have been good clients, though, so he agrees to help with two of the more troublesome females - Blam! Hit wth the Fated Mate Stick, hard. It’s an interesting if convoluted journey to HEA for Rex and Thea, and an elf-induced kidnap crisis for the Outcasts as the adventure continues in Book 3...
