I mean...it's right there in the title. This is a story about a group of abducted women whose captors drop them on a ice planet, where they encounter large blue aliens. A brief warning:

There is a gang rape scene involving a minor character at the very beginning of the book that made it hard for me to want to continue. I'm thankful it wasn't more explicit than it was.

In some ways, the story of Georgie and Vektal is a standard damsel-in-distress tale. Georgie is easy to root for because she's really doing her best to save her fellow captives, and she's strong-willed and willing to do what's necessary to survive.

But to appreciate their story, you have to be willing to accept a few things about Vektal: possessiveness, fated mates, some dubcon in the beginning of their meet-up (although in all due credit, he does accept the need for consent as they learn to communicate), and breeding. Not my personal cup of tea, but I accepted him for what he was, much like Georgie did.

Overall, I'll probably read a couple more in the series, but I'm not in any hurry to do so.
