Rescued by the Space Marine

A temple healer + a space marine = sizzling romance

Alien Warrior Brides is a series of standalone stories with a connected universe. Each book can be read separately. Guaranteed HEA. No cliffhangers. No cheating. Expect lots of steam. 

Illary has only known a life of seclusion, her gifts held hostage and forced from her hands. She's enormously powerful, but the temple coordinators have kept her tightly controlled. When she realizes Father Alois has wicked plans for her, she becomes desperate for an escape from the temple – so much that she is considering joining the rebel Pachakutek's stronghold alongside her younger sister Suyana. 

Xun is a space marine who has been sent to extract Illary from the temple. When their ship is attacked by the Alhmanics, they are split from Xun's regiment and Illary's sister. 

Xun and Illary must rely on each other in order to make their way to Intara to meet Kaley, Illary's older sister. But when space pirates attack, will they die inside of a remote space station or be able to complete their journey?
