Ok read
Good read, but so far, this is my least favorite book of the series. I’m sure you’ve read this in just about every other review, but harboring Harlow really is so much different than the 1st 2 books. I very much enjoyed the darkness of this read and found myself crying over takkar and loving how well written his instability was, but overall, I had to make myself finish this one. This book just didn’t flow as well as the 1st 2. Had I started with this one, I probably would have found it more enjoyable, but I found myself questioning the timeline of things too much; for instance, the guys have been living in the forest for only so many years, yet they didn’t understand the traditions but according to the 1st 2 books these traditions had been in place much longer than the guys’stunt in isolation.. I just don’t enjoy when a series starts messing up on timelines and it happened here a few times with different things, so it really threw off my reading flow.
Yes, this can be read as a stand-alone.

Great read!
This is my second ever alien romance novel, and first alien RH. I have to say I really enjoyed! It didn’t take long to understand their few words spoken in their alien language but I do wish there was a quick “dictionary” in the front of the book because there were a few words I didn’t know what they stood for so I just guessed. The writing style was excellent and I think I only noticed two grammatical errors throughout the whole book. The authors did a great job at tugging at your emotions. The book starts with our human FMC being held captive by her “mates”. There are several triggers as she is continuously tortured until eventually escaping and meeting other aliens who take her in. This book is about dealing with the demons and darkness in your past and learning to live again. There were a couple of times I felt the book drag a little and ended up skim reading, hence the deduction of 1 star, but overall I really enjoyed the book and now I plan on reading the other two in the series that came out before this one. They can be read as standalones but the females are all connected to the others.
Update: if you read the series in order, the first book has a list of what the alien words mean!

So vekking good!
So a couple of fair warnings:
Harlow’s story is darker than Carmen’s or Shiloh’s so if you’ve read those 2 and think this might be the same it’s not. If you have any triggers then please don’t read this book.
Also, I’m going do you a solid and advise you keep tissues handy.
Please don’t let the warnings keep you from reading the book. If you can handle it I promise it’s worth every second. This story is definitely dark and poor Harlow’s story starts with the worst kind of luck. Honestly I bawled my eyes out for her and raged on her behalf but Harlow is a Harvest girl and you just can’t keep them down for long. Harlow manages to save herself from her bad situation and ends up finding herself in a cave in the wild with 2 aliens so better maybe? Well you have to read on to see…Sev & Dev have suffered their own trauma and have lived in isolation as self-inflicted punishment, so when Harlow washes up in their life to say they are surprised is an understatement. But here is where Harlow and her mates beautiful story begins. The story of survivors who find and save each other, who bring you back from your nightmares, give you space when needed and are simply there. It’s a story about learning to trust again and realizing that love isn’t exclusive to good, whole people. That love can help fix some of the broken pieces and that it can be your light in the darkness. I know I’m waxing poetic here but I wish I could put into words just how beautiful and wonderful this story was to me. There are lots of great moments throughout the story and it’s so hard not to fall in love with Sev, Dev, Harlow and even Takkar. There are heart wrenching moments, moments of pride, rage, so many aww scenes, hot & steamy scenes, laugh out loud moments and by the end you’re just full of happy tears.
I enjoyed the book immensely. It wasn’t quite what I expected – it was even better. I fell in love with Harlow and her aliens and I hope you all pick this book and give yourself the same opportunity.

Holy crap what a roller coaster!! That ride was crazy, and amazing, wild, and healing all rolled into one. I loved Harlows journey, the beginning was rough to read and a lot of pain and sadness but it was amazing watching Sev and Dev help heal her and in turn she healed them and helped restore there broken and scarred family. This Klan has such fight and determination, it was amazing to read. These stories are great because it sums up each girls journey and meeting her Klan, but they are also all connected as Harvest Sisters and seeing them fighting for each other is a powerful view of family love!! I can't wait for Tatiana and Daisy stories!!!
