Earth has been conquered by Alasharians, the male humans who survived and are considered attractive have been made into sex slaves, and the aliens have declared their invasion a success. One of the humans, Chris, turns out to be different, and only now that he has mated with two Alasharian warriors, the extent and consequences of those differences are beginning to become obvious. The author has created a fantastic world in the ‘Soul Match’ series, so be prepared for quite an adventure. ‘Slave for Two’, in my opinion, is a definite prerequisite for this second installment – without having read it you will probably be very, very lost in this strange, intriguing, mystifying world.

Chris, Nary, and Lasar are freshly bonded and all they want to do is explore this new link between them. They do so enthusiastically, mostly in the bedroom, and with Chris’s questions about BDSM teaching all of them new things. The three of them are scorching together, and with Nary needing to learn to be a Dom for Chris while remaining a sub for Lasar, the situation gets complicated on occasion. But the real problem is not finding balance between the three men – challenging though it may be – it is the fact that the outside world keeps intruding, and not in a good way.

Nary and Lasar want only to protect Chris, but Fate seems to have a different idea. Chris’s role becomes clearer as the story develops, and his role in the coming fight looks like an essential piece of the puzzle. But neither Chris nor his two alien mates have any idea what they’re in for – until the truth hits all of them with surprising violence.
Where the first book set the scene for the battle to come, this second installment is all about finding out more details about who the enemy is, drawing the lines in the sand, and beginning to show what Chris’s role will be. It is a surprise to his two Alasharian mates, but they have had some time to prepare ever since they realized they have actually bonded with a third man and, even more unexpectedly, a human. The other Alasharians have no idea what has begun, except for the allies the triad have begun to discover. The suspense is higher than ever and if you thought the cliff-hanger at the end of book one was bad, let me tell you, the one at the end of this sequel is much, much worse!

If you like your science fiction with overpowering aliens, significant mystery, and slowly unraveling secrets, if a battle of epic proportions is your thing and you like being “eased” into it (if there is such a thing), and if you’re looking for a read that is suspenseful, intriguing, and scorching, then you will probably like this novel. After that cliff-hanger – I can’t wait for the next volume!
