Human women are abducted from Earth by evil aliens and chained on an alien planet called the Pit, where alliens fight for the right to claim human females. Vaxa’an, the Prime Leader of Luxiria, must secure his race’s survival by claiming a female at the Pit, but he unexpectedly finds his fated mate. This unleashes a chain reaction in his Luxirian Ambassadors who also find their fated mates in the human women rescued from the Pit.
Warriors of Luxiria, and its spin-off Warrior of Rozun, are formulaic yet fun “mars needs women” romances. The alien warriors are sexy barbarian types. The human women they fall for are modern heroines tortured by their desire for their Luxirians and their longing to return to Earth. Spoiler Alert: they stay in Luxiria and have all the babies! While the formula gets repetitive by The Alien’s Touch (book #4 of Warriors of Luxiria), we were still very invested in each couple’s happy ending. Draven shakes things up for the better with The Alien’s Claim (book #8 of Warriors of Luxiria), Warrior of Rozun (spin-off), and Rescued by the Luxirian (novella taking place hundreds of years in the future!).
