Futuristic romance by Theolyn Boese. A common storyline: Aliens from another planet need human women to mate with, because their own women were infected with a disease that either killed them off, or left them infertile. So, Theodora Connor is chosen to be the mate to two of the alien men. She's kidnapped, genetically altered, tattooed, pierced, and had a foreign object put in her head. When she wakes up, she finds herself with two "husbands" who want to begin marital relations right away, and then try to help her adjust to her new life. Some of the aliens are not happy to include the humans into their culture. This book includes menage, m/m sex, light bondage, rape, voilence, violence against a main character. I have mixed feelings about the storyline. For a race who considers themselves civilized and fair, their actions were unconscionable. However, when we finally get to the romance, it was fair. The ending is bitter sweet. Not for the faint of heart.
