About This Audiobook

Pilot. Guard. Prisoner. All three are crashed in the Georgia woods, lost on a world where extraterrestrials are the stuff of science fiction. Blending into the human world is doable, if dangerous. But what if the locals are far from human themselves, with secrets of their own?

Former bounty hunter Stella Grey grew up an orphan on family-centric Alpha-Prime, so she knows the value of belonging. Leaving everything – and everyone – behind to join distant kin a galaxy away in Alienn, Arkansas, is a small price to pay. Heading up a retrieval operation following a spacecraft crash in rural Georgia is her chance to prove herself to them. Her mission? Locate the ship’s occupants. Secure the prisoner. And, above all, keep the earthlings from discovering that aliens live and walk among them.

Draeken Phoenix is the bad boy from one of Alpha-Prime’s best families, known for getting in and out of scrapes with wit, charm, and sheer bravado. He never expected to become an actual prisoner bound for a galactic gulag. Until now, the worst thing that had ever happened to him was losing the woman he loved. But he has a plan. He’d bet his life on it.

Surprisingly enjoyable!

There is nothing I love more than starting a book with low expectations, only to be proven wrong! That has definitely been the case for me with Ms. Roarke's NFU books. I found the characters well-rounded and fun, the plotlines creative and entertaining, and the writing itself is very well…

Strong Nocturne Falls addition, but no Painter original

This is a strong addition the Nocturne Falls Universe. Fiona Roarke has created a town of aliens hiding their presence on Earth by being out in the open, similar to Nocturne Falls' Halloween theme. I enjoyed the intersection of those two worlds. I also really liked how Stella and Draeken…
