R'kos, son of the Ankylos Emperor, is expected to settle down. But he's much more attracted to human males than to his own species. Eager to explore his forbidden longings, he steals a ship and heads to Elora Ki to see if he can find the right human guy.

Darien robs the corrupt to give to those in need, but now he needs a ride off Elora Ki, stat. Pursued by drug lords, he accepts help from the amorous stranger who calls himself Ricky. As they fly together along Darien's route, their friendship quickly turns into passion.

But when Ricky is injured, Darien must contact the embassy to get his alien lover the medical care he needs. As Darien finds himself accused of kidnapping, and Ricky fears his family's disappointment, can the two protect their growing relationship? Or are their differences just too great?

We met R'kos in the previous book. He smells gay sex on the human negotiator. It stirs him up to the point that after returning to his home planet, he steals a ship and heads back to Elora Ki to satisfy his desire and experience human gay sex. R'kos is a son of the Ankylos Emporer, the enemy of the Aliance. He meets Darien in a bar and saves him from the bad guys. Darien is not an upstanding citizen, but kind of a Robin Hood, who robs the corrupt to give to those in need. Pursued by drug lords, he accepts help from the amorous alien R'kos who he then calls Ricky. Sex with an alien is very interesting and unusual. They both love it and fall for each other, but don't really express themselves.

A terrible accident occurs and both are injured. The story heats up and things get worse than complicated as you can imagine with a diplomatic disaster that involves royalty. Just when you think everything will work out, it goes awry. With much angst everything resolves to a cross between HFN and HEA. Some of their relationship issues have to do with their vastly different alien cultures so I can understand why they each didn't act like adults.

I hope the author writes another sequel.

Alien & human fall in love, complications ensue

I enjoyed this M/M story a great deal. Both characters were sexy and likable. The 'alien' wasn't just a person with a different color skin, but a different concept of living that I found interesting and would have trouble with it myself.It's prob better if you don't read the synopsis since it's not a lot more story than that, but it is well told, steamy and sweet. I recommend and am off to see what else KC Burn has written.

This is really 3.5 stars for me

This is the second book of a series, so we have some recurring characters from the first book, but they don’t come in until later, but this book, just like the first, is complete in itself – no need to have read the first book.

I’m not sure if there was really what I would call a plot – it reads kind of like a story of “How I met my husband”, but told in 3rd person with the perspective alternating back and forth between each of the main characters. It has similar emotional themes to the first book: needing to feel protected, safe and loved, just causes and righteous justice.

Unlike the first book, this is really sci-fi – no escaping it. While the first book could have taken place without aliens, this one is all about the interaction between human culture and an alien culture. And I appreciated the author going into some detail about the alien culture. For a short book, one could expect very little development or thought invested in the “what and why” of the aliens and their culture, but the story here goes into that a bit. And there was a point in the story where I thought we were at the end of the story, but then something else happens that needs to be resolved. I liked that I didn’t see that coming.

Dialog is decent, not particularly rich or elaborate, but it works, feels appropriate. Audiobook readers be advised: the narrator’s voice is pleasant, but lacking in emotion and variety. A worthwhile story, nevertheless. I’m interested to see what happens in the third book.

Sci-fi romance between human and alien

You know. I have to say that I actually enjoyed this story. I was pleasantly surprised. I don't typically read a lot of Sci Fi, but lately, I've been on a mini kick. I enjoyed the many 'life' scenes parallel to current modern day human issues. This story is worth your time.

R'kos is a prince who's family is quite large, and at the center is a triad marriage-- which is typical of his alien race. The triads consist of two men and a woman. Thing is, R'kos is being stirred towards a marriage similar to his parents. But, it's a life he doesn't want. He is only attracted to men, and wants to choose his own path. He finds adventure with 'bad boy' Darien. He's had a rough life and steals out of necessity. He's stolen from the wrong bad guy, and he's on the run. R'kos comes along for the ride. They develop a deep connection, but are unable to fully communicate their needs and wants, and of course, fears which leads to dyer consequences. There were some scenes that sent a wild feeling of anticipation and pent up intensity up through my spine.

I'm a sucker for romance, and this was a pretty fun romance. Its a fun fast read. Enjoy.

Sci Fi 'true romance'

What a monotone performance. It was hard to really listen to the story, which had plenty of big emotional moments, when read in that tone. Pity.
Story was veering wildly between plot and MxM porn. Author is great at worldbuilding. I bet this story feels better when I read it on paper.

Great worldbuilding, flat narration

This was a great story with likable characters and an interesting world. I read the first book quite a while ago so I forgot most of it, so I’d say you could read this as a stand-alone and still enjoy it. I also liked the narration. The quality of the voice has a unique raspy quality that made me hope this narrator does older men romances.

Loved this

What did you like best about this story?

The alien's balls. Seriously, I was like wtf at first but it got funnier...

Have you listened to any of Chad Maxwell’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Never heard him before. He did pretty well.

Any additional comments?

To be fair, the reviewer before mine is not lying, there are some corny parts in the beginning of this book, but I implore you to push through them, it's well worth it. This isn't a book that will one day become a movie but that doesn't mean it's not a good book. The writing is well done, the narration is well done, and the story is cute. There's just enough fluff, just enough action, just enough sex, and just enough heart. By the middle of the book and the end, the fluff fades and it takes on a more serious tone. I won't lie, I read romance for romance, and I am well aware that romance sometimes comes with cheese but this one was lightly dashed with it, and not covered in it Velveeta style like others I've heard or read. I am VERY pleased with this purchase and this story. It was worth way more than I paid. The characters were sweet and well put together. Thumbs up to the author and narrator. I shall look out for more by them in the future. Bravo!

The ONLY audiobook I'll listen to more than once

This is a very traditional romance in a sci-fi setting, but really it is not science-fiction at all. That's ok, since it is slotted in the romance genre, so no false advertising. The writing is decent, and the audio performance too. However, I found the plot too light and too contrived. It's really all about lust, then brushed over with love. I can enjoy well-placed raunch as well as the next guy, but lines like "I had yet to see his face (NTD: and realize he was an alien] that my dick was too hard to think straight" or something such anyway, i don't have the audio playing right now, just are too corny for me.

Overall it is ok, but there are better quality ones out there.

Writing and performance don't save the story

Enjoyed this! Narrator was good, story had ups and down, a little adventure. I will look for more from this author.

Would you listen to Alien 'n' Outlaw again? Why?

I think I would prefer to read the book over listening to the audiobook. The narrator seemed to me to be an amateur.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Alien 'n' Outlaw?

When R'kos was injured and Darien realized he loved him.

What does Chad Maxwell bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Over all he is a mediocre narrator and I would not look forward to another story performed by him. It was difficult to differentiate between Darien's and R'kos' voices, and his narrative is monotone.

If you could take any character from Alien 'n' Outlaw out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Really?

Any additional comments?

Summary: A great little romp through human thief Darien's sector of the galaxy with his big, sexy, 6'5 alien companion R'kos, son of the Ankylos Emperor. Nice, tight sci-fi story, smexy sex, a bit of sweetness and angst...what's not to like. The narrator, in addition to his monotone narrative, made it nearly impossible to distinguish Darien from R'kos, and mispronounced a few words. The recording was obviously not edited as evidenced by repeated lines. Regardless, this didn't didn't push me out of the story. I still recommend the audiobook.

A nice sci-fi romp
