The Strip Down: A SciFi Alien Romance (Exposed to the Elements Book 5) Kindle Edition

by Honey Phillips (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 2,123 ratings
Can Amanda discover the secrets behind an alien ruin? And the mysterious alien with the haunted eyes?

Amanda is happy with her life as an elementary school teacher - and making plans to expand her family. Waking up naked and alone on an alien planet is not on her schedule.

Desperate to return to Earth, she reluctantly accepts the help of the massive alien who appears out of the sands. But the more time they spend together, the more complicated her need to return becomes.

Va’rik awakens to find himself alone on the edge of an ancient desert. He is quite sure he has an important task to perform - the only problem is that he can’t quite remember what he needs to accomplish.

When he encounters a strange, beautiful female, assisting her becomes his mission. But as his memories start to return, he realizes that helping her leave is the last thing he truly wants.

Can Va’rik keep his vow to Amanda, even if it means the future of his race - and his own happiness - are in jeopardy?

Each book in the Exposed to the Elements series can be read as a standalone romance; however, this book contains references to previous characters and events in the series and may best be enjoyed in order. This sweet and steamy romance is intended for mature audiences only.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

USA Today bestselling author Honey Phillips writes steamy science fiction romance about hot alien warriors and the Earth women they can’t resist. From abductions to invasions, the ride might be rough, but the end always satisfies.

Honey wrote and illustrated her first book at the tender age of five. Her writing has improved since then. Her drawing skills, unfortunately, have not. She loves writing, reading, traveling, cooking, and drinking champagne - not necessarily in that order.

    I loved Va’rik and Amanda’s sci-fi alien romance series with a side of kidnapping and social experiment. It was filled with all the emotions, the connections and the love and there was another cute alien pet. I especially loved that the experimenter was now one of the subjects in this story. Amanda is a human and an elementary teacher. She has no family but hopes to begin fostering one of her students soon. Because she was raised by a single mom she is fiercely independent. Va’rik is an alien who consciousness has been preserved for millennia but he is in a physical body with no knowledge of his society’s past or the experiments to restart their race. There is attraction and chemistry between Va’rik and Amanda but they’ll have to deal with their painful pasts, obligations, fears, and Va’rik’s partial amnesia in order to get their HEA. While this could be read as a standalone, to get the most enjoyment out of the story, the series should be read in order. Despite being short, the story was well written, the characters had dimension and the storyline was engaging. I will miss this series.

    This final book in the series has possibly less adventure but more drama than the previous 4. And the MMC is in some ways less the traditional alpha male, capable of anything. But he is competent and determined, with a powerful love.
    Book 4 had explained what was going on. The 5th gives you a really feel-good romance and a good peak at the future.
    An overall excellent series and held my interest as I read these straight through

    I had started this book when it was first published, but couldn't get into it. I discovered that you really need to read the previous novels in order to appreciate it. It's a bit simplistic, but definitely kept my interest this time.

    First of all, any and all questions that earlier books may have brought were answered in this one (no plotholes, yay). Second of all, did I cry when reading the ending? Yes, yes I did. The story was closed off beautifully and I look forward to reading more books by this author.
