My Matched Monster — Rena Marks

My punishment starts today.Refusing marriage isn't acceptable, not in my world-separated from the rest of Earth by the large stone walls of our own community. To refuse the most legendary prophet of our time in front of the entire congregation was a sentence of twenty lashes. Halfway in, I entered a hallucinogenic state.A hero came to save me, but he was purple with tentacles. Funny how your mind can blow in such an extreme state of pain. The only aliens I know are the Britonians, and they're beautiful, physiques like Greek gods, but with gold skin. Not tan. A true shade of gold.Not horrific, imagined purple monsters.When I wake, the beautiful gold-skinned aliens who are our benefactors enter me in the Match Program. A chance to get away from Earth for six months while I heal. I'll be mated, sure, but I'm assured he's noble, fair, and doesn't expect anything from me. He's just honored to have a brave female to take back home. Because on their planet, bravery is measured by the thickness of your scars, and my back has plenty.But he hasn't yet seen my face.* My Matched Monster contains explicit love scenes, naughty language, and giggles. References to abuse and cults, though all get a happy-ever-after. Intended for mature readers.This is the sixth book in the Matched Program Series.The gorgeous species called Britonians had left their planet with a dying sun. They reached an agreement with Earth to clean up our ruined planet with their modern technology in exchange for a new place to live. If it were up to women, we'd allow them to live just to look at them. The Brits are amazing, gold skin, tall and muscular, like avenging angels.When they hear that most of our men died in the third World War, leaving the sexes vastly mismatched, they offer to begin a Match Program with a distant planet in need of females. It will be completely professional, personality-matching, compatibility, and the possibility of procreation. Plus, the human females will have a guaranteed choice after six months: Remain with your alien mate, or come home to Earth.None of us expected the gorgeous alien species to introduce us to horrifying monsters.Book 1 - Matched To The Monster (Juris & Lilaina)Book 2 - Matched To The Monster Too (Stratek & Tessa)Book 3 - Wanted By The Monster (Jaire & Anya)Book 4 - Wanting The Monster (Relion & Tera)Book 5 - My Monster, My Choice (Elex & Christina)Book 6 - My Matched Monster (Tiran & River)Book 7 - The Monster's Bride (Bronan & Isabel)
