I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I generally love sci fi romance novels. This is my first time reading this author and this novel was a pleasant surprise. The idea that women are fighting to survive an alien invasion and need to time travel to get men to help and repopulate the earth is not a plot I've seen before in this genre. So kudos to the author for an innovative and interesting plot. I liked the heroine, smart and brave and the hero is your typical Arrogant, alpha variety. My only disappointment is that the author did not do more with this story. A reimagined earth with mostly women defining their future deserves more than a few pages of battle and grit.
The minute Stone shows up, Sunny loses her commanding presence and is subjected to Stones sexual prowess, demands and criticism. It progresses with the idea that these women need men to guide and save them instead of an equal partnership. These women who have battled these aliens on their own for years all of sudden as soon as these men show up become submissive and are easily overpowered by them.
This is the beginning of what could be a great series as long as these women realize their own power and strength.
