Narration During Books Knight of a Trillion Stars (Matrix of Destiny #1)
Fired from her job, exhausted from her miserable Boston commute, the last thing Deana Jones needed when she got home was to find an alien in her living room. But how else to explain the magnificent man who claimed he was from beyond the stars? He said that his name was Lorgin and that she was part of his celestial destiny. Deana thought his reasoning was ridiculous, and she knew he was making an error of cosmic proportions. But his touch was electric and his arms strong, and when she first felt the sizzling impact of his uncontrollable desire, Deana started to wonder if maybe their passion wasn't written in the stars.Declare Appertaining To Books Knight of a Trillion Stars (Matrix of Destiny #1)

Ugh. A flashback to the old-fashioned 'aching loins' romances of the 70s where a resounding "No!" from the heroine just got her a " stop fighting-you're gonna love it" from the 'hero'. While I generally enjoy a fish-out-of-water type story this was just plain silly in a rather disturbing way. Great for masochists. Second Dara Joy novel that has turned me off. Not an author I will try again.It's bad good. Don't hate, but some times you gotta read the bad good romance because it is just so bad good. Overbearing hero with no respect for the crazy fact that he is taking some fated lady out of her world into a completely new one? Check. Lady completely accepting of all crazy things the man does cause he is so magically good in bed? Check. Ridiculous quest to save the world? Check.
Way too easy to mock this is. This cheesy paranormal romance features an alien, a "Knight of the Charl" complete with light saber, who pops into the life of an aspiring science-fiction writer, Deana Jones. (Probably not a good sign when the book's protagonist has a name so reminiscent of the author.) So, tell me. You find a strange man in your house and you're alone. Do you: a) Scream and run out of the house to your car. b) Grab the phone and call the police. c) Check out how hot he is with his
Sometimes I love to read books that help me escape from everyday life. Not that my life isn't great, but for me fantasy or science fiction work in helping me dream, as if I was able to fly very far away. When I get back as I stop reading a great book, its like WOW, I almost forgot the here and now. Thats why I loved Knight of a Trillion Stars by Dara Joy. Lorgin taal Krue comes to earth across time and universe in a mission to recover a Shimalle, a magical necklace that in his world has time
4.5 hot alien starsWhen I read the description for this book I was thinking EwwwNo it was moreAnd there is more than one of them. These aliens have skills in the bedroom. In their world skills and practice are admired. Wait this book is not all about sex, there is a story.A young woman having a bad day stops into a resale store and buys a pice of ugly jewelry. Boom sexy guy shows up and will not leave, he's an alien from wherever and he must stay with her. Oh he is clueless to her world, he
Rating: ★★★1/2☆ (This is a review of the audiobook.) Nicely narrated by Rebecca Cook, who delivers the tongue-in-cheek dialogue well. I haven't heard her read before, but I've already searched to see what else she has narrated.As far as story, I have mixed feelings about this one. Some parts were fun and definitely entertaining. Also, the world building was well done, as were the secondary characters. In fact, the secondary characters were so well written, it is hard for me to pick a favorite.
I'm sorry, but I can't stand it any longer. This is like one long forced-seduction by the most overbearing, clueless alpha-male I've ever read. He's fucking terrible! I kept reading, hoping that Deanna would finally say something that would get through his thick skull. Something that would make him realize how awful his actions are. But no, we just get one scene after another where Lorgin wears Deanna down by forcing her body to react positively. He terrorizes her. Apparently "no" doesn't mean
