Paradox is the third book in the Red Rock Alien Mail Order Brides, and we meet Hacker in more depth. He is the third of the Pact Soldiers, and does exactly as his name suggests. Ellen is a soldier working for the Verum. They come together as Pact and Verum try to see if they can trust each other. The vortex moves for Hacker when he first meets Ellen, but she acts coldly towards him, which in turn, just makes him hotter for her. There is also a mission to the future, which brings into play the 'paradox' of the title.

Although I love this series, this one just didn't work as well for me. The relationship between Hacker and Ellen seemed to go from a flat-out NO, to them being together with nothing in between. I did love the story with Alex and Cindi, but I won't go into any further detail on that, except that I loved how it all panned out.

Very well written, with no editing or grammatical errors to disrupt my reading flow, I still enjoyed this story, and have no hesitation in recommending this book, or the series.

The story was short but it is part of a series so it didn't put me off. It was nice to read a book quite relatable in the way that the main character hadn't had much in love and found someone as she felt she was getting older and knew she needed to settle down. I wasn't keen on the way the writer kept mentioning the weight of the main character especially when it was repeatedly mentioned how beautiful she was. I understand the whole 'love yourself whatever your size' motto but I feel it was mentioned too much.
It is my type of book - romance.
I was hooked from the start and found the book really easy to get into.
I understood what the characters were like from the way they spoke.
As the book was so short I didn't connected to the characters and I didn't felt they moved me or grew in the book. This may change through the series.
The story is definitely aimed at women in their late 20s onwards.
I would read the other books in the series and I would recommend to others.
I received a complimentary copy of the book from the author via Voracious Readers Only.

If you are looking for a Sci-Fi/Dystopian book that is chock-full of action, then look no further. The amount of action in this book will leave you breathless as you travel with Skye as she tries to save the people she has grown to care for.

There isn't much of Skye and Brennan in this part, but trust me, there is so much else going on that you don't really miss it. Skye is such a strong character, I love her. She is prepared to put her neck on the line for what she believes in, even though it goes against everything she has been told her whole life. I love how she can already see the cracks in her society but just needs the back story for her to commit.

Exceptionally well-written, fast-paced and action-packed, this is a story to read, savour, and then go back and read again, just to make sure you didn't miss anything! Absolutely fantastic and highly recommended.
