Summary

Alien Overlords ruling Earth need human females to rebuild a decimated population. Delle refuses to end up on a breeder's list. Overlord Caide wants to avoid returning to his home planet and his father's harsh rule. Can a marriage of convenience protect them both?

Earth was ripped apart during the Final War, but the alien Overlords have come down to save us.

Or have they?

Delle: Life is simple for my older sister, even under the Overlords’ rule. She’s happily married and a mother of four. According to our alien rulers, I should be emulating her. But I want more than to be a breeder, having some blasted alien’s babies. Nope. Not the life for me. Then a cruel alien Flight Commander tries to claim me as his own. My only way out is a marriage of convenience…with an Overlord from the planet Asterion. Caide, my brother-in-law’s boss. It’s the last thing I want, but Overlord Caide promises he won’t force anything on me. Sex. Babies. Love.

Caide: The illegitimate son of an Asterion noble, I took a spot on one of the first starships coming to Earth where I built a new life for myself. Now my half-brother, my father’s heir, has died, and my father wants me to return home. In order to circumvent my father, I must marry a human female so the Asterion nobility will consider me tainted. I can’t deny that Delle, my employee’s sister-in-law, with her generous curves and hot temper, has caught my eye. She’s also caught the eye of a harsh military ruler. She needs a way to escape him, and I need a way to escape going home. So I offer her a bargain. A marriage bargain.One of the stipulations she sets is that we can’t fall in love. But that may be the part of the bargain I can’t keep. As it turns out, Delle is my mate. Whether she believes it—likes it—or not.

Moriah Blackwood’s Bound to an Overlord series is spicy-sweet and steamy-clean, so you get plenty of sizzle without the scorch. Each full-length novel has a guaranteed HEA, no cliffhanger, and no cheating.

Great slow burn, and perceptive

Well written, great characters and strong storyline. Loved the fact its roughly dated in the future after Earth destroys itself in The FInal War, yet there is soo much similarity with todays world. Well worth the time spend reading

overlord

I loved the narration of Lila Kerry, who brings the chemistry and plot alive to your ears.

Caide is an alien Overlord, who comes from his planet to save earth. Delle is a strong woman in an oppressed society. Caide is an honest, hardworking, honourable Asterion trying to forge his own path on a new planet.
While Delle is human and wants to be more than a lowly human breeder for the aliens. Caide proposes a solution to help them both. There was lots of chemistry between the two, very slow burn.
