Synopsis:

Lured years ago from her home on Earth, Liana has seen countless natives mercilessly killed by humans in their search for planet Oriana's riches. When the Foher warrior Kavi kidnaps her during his escape, he unwittingly takes the humans' greatest asset — and awakens Liana's strongest lusts.

For years the Fohers have sought the same treasure — Amatista. Only by finding the mystical river of amethysts will Kavi and his people be safe. But Kavi doesn't realize his human captive, with her lush body and eager responses, is more than just a distraction — she is the key to finding the very treasure he seeks.


 


 

SRR GRADE: A
 

Liana has no idea who her parents are and has never felt loved or cared for.  So when she sees the horrors forced upon the Foher people she can’t help but be distraught and want to help.  But when she sees their leader Kavi manacled she is drawn to him in an entirely different way. A virgin, she has no idea how she is torturing him with her touch.

 

Kavi wants to lead his people to Amatista, their homeland on the planet Oriana but they’ve been searching for years with no results.  When his fellow Fohers come to rescue him he grabs Liana determined to make her pay for leaving him aroused and unsatisfied. 

 

The chemistry between Kavi and Liana searing from their first meeting and they are drawn to each other even though Kavi tries to resist.  Liana knows that for the first time in her life she feels protected and cared for. Kavi is worried that when he makes love to her then they will be bound together forever and he doesn’t want to subject her to the kind of life. Eventually their desires are too strong to resist.

Amatista is an excellent futuristic romance.  The characters had a lot of depth and the story compelling.  I couldn’t help but route for the Fohers and their quest for their homeland and that Liana finally find her own home.  Red Garnier knows how to write her stories blazing and her heroes sizzling. You’ll be feeling steamy long after you’ve turned the last page.  This is the first book I’ve read by this author but I can tell you it won’t be the last.
