Bring the heat my necia warrior lover!
Thank you for joining the current ARC team, !
As always, my ARCs are opt-in, so you're here because you wanted to join the current ARC for HER ALIEN WARRIOR!
You may have already plowed in and read and reviewed Her Alien Warrior, but I wanted to touch base with everyone on the team, because it's been a few weeks, and we are 3 DAYS from LAUNCH on April 2nd 2024!

The Date is SET for Tuesday, April 2nd, 2024
Some of you might have Early Easter plans for the kiddos today, I hope you enjoy your local egg hunts! My daughter is all dressed up to meet the Easter Bunny, and my son is excited to find some eggs. I found a cheaper way of filling the eggs with goodies by buying a sheet of stickers and cutting each individual sticker out and putting it in the egg. They are both pretty excited about getting stickers, and it saves me money to have each egg only have one sticker in it. haha. My son doesn't eat candy, and my daughter already got spoiled with chocolates from grandparents.
Okay, I guess enough about Easter eggs. Here's the update since last time!
There were 74 people on my ARC team for this book! and 63 people who joined a BookSprout Campaign. (Some of these may be overlap, but I'm assuming some of the Booksprout reader may be new readers not on my ARC team.)
32 reviews on Goodreads!
11 reviews on Amazon!
4.55 Star Average!
91% rated 4-5 stars!
I'm hoping for the first time on my launches that we can reach 50 reviews on Amazon for launch week, or gain one of those orange hot new release ribbons! If not this book, maybe the next one. Author goals!
We are 30 pre-orders of Her Alien Warrior away from meeting my goal to afford NSFW commissioned artwork of General Sou-el! I'm super excited.
As most of you know, us indies don't usually make "profit" on our books right away, and in the beginning our goal isn't to get "paid" for our work, but to afford fun things like artwork! That's right, in 30 more grabs of Her Alien Warrior I will pour all the profits that should be going towards paying back book cover costs, copyright fees, and other expenses... I'm funneling it all to an artist so we can live in the world a bit more! Because I have an addiction... it's a problem.
My goal is to one day gain a super fan that happens to also be an artist and wants to live in my world a bit more and creates fan art like Opal's dustwalkers! Author dreams!
I made this book more Character Focused, and less about the overarching universe plot line within the main series, but it still ties in. A glance into what's happening within the universe where people are less involved in the big picture of what's happening, but the smaller picture of what's happening to individual lives.
This book had a few goals in mind. Writing a main FMC that is not all that "extraordinary" but a testament that you don't have to be "Amazing" in the eyes of everyone, just amazing to your person, or in this case alien.
The other goal was to relate more to the prequel book Her Alien Exchange and be more Character Focused like I wanted this series to be.
I did veer off a bit with Her Alien Savior and had character focus, but also wrapped those characters up into the universe plot a little more than I intended to do. The characters kind of got away from me, and pushed back on being part of the cog, and wanted to spin the wheel a bit more in terms of moving the needle of fixing the universe crisis.
The Necia Warrior series is meant to be focused on the character relationships that are affected by the big choices made in the Treasures of Trillume books.
Shout out to Becky, because I love reading your reviews and I work towards making this particular series get all the fuzzy feels. I take your words and try to be better with each book!
You asked for a reading order, and I made one!
Overwhelmed with too much political intrigue and want more character focus and less complexity, I got you! I made this book with you in mind as my reader goal for feels. Thank you for being part of my team!
If you are here on my ARC team, I truly care about you enjoying my books. You are my V.I.P. and I aim to grow as an author and refine my skills to make each book more enjoyable for each of you.
Your comments and reviews matter to me!
I know a few of you preferred a little more angst and political intrigue, so don't worry if this particular book you didn't connect with as much, I still have all the adventure and plot bunnies for Her Alien Insurgent coming up!
If you have not dived into Her Alien Warrior, please dig the book out of your e-reader after you've had your fill of chocolate eggs. We are 3 days from LAUNCH!
Look at this sexy alien beast with all his spikey shoulder epuls, that white and black hair, those amber eyes, muscles for cycles, and those sexy hardening scale plates!

The Date is SET for Tuesday, April 2nd, 2024
As part of my street team, there are many ways to contribute that don't involve reviewing at all, but I do ask that since you've chosen to grab the ARC that you make an effort to spread the joyous word of alien knotting peen to the world.
If you could reserve a little social sharing love for release week April 2nd - April 7th, 2024 that would mean the world to me. From a new release book birthday shoutout, to posting your favorite quotes, to whatever you would say to your book bestie to convince them to take a chance on a new author!
You can post your reviews anytime you want between now and then! The paperback is live on Amazon and there are already 5 reviews up, and who knows, maybe I'll finally get a book launch that claimed that awesome orange TOP NEW RELEASE flag. (brow wiggle) With your help, anything is possible!
Always reaching for those author milestones!
Thank you to my first reviews! It means the world to me that you've enjoyed the book! I have to say, that it really does bring such happiness to my squishy heart to see how quickly some of you have read the book, and how new members of the team have said such kind things.
Like ChristySenpai on her Instagram, "Have you ever finished a book and immediately looked for every book you can find from that author so you can binge them? Because that’s what I did immediately after finishing this one. We love a good later in life love situation and General Sou-el is top tier. I’m excited to see the next installment of the series."
I swear to all that is alien peen and good in the world that it is because of my team and these kind words, and growing my support system here with each book launch that really motivates me to keep plugging along.
Thank you, to those who have already read the book and shared your thoughts, those who always put my book at the top of their ever-growing TBR, and to those who are new here and taking a chance on my books. Thank you! It is because of you that I share my books, otherwise they would simply stay with me on my hard-drive and one day I'd probably force my husband to read them while I strapped him down with his eyes taped open. You have saved his life, his eyeballs, and my sanity. Thank you.
If you've grabbed the ARC copy and are not able to read and review by the launch date, April 2nd 2024, please just send me an email. I'm aware life happens and I'm launching this ARC team with very little lead time.
All ARCS are sent through BookFunnel certified ARC, please search your emails/spam folders for an email from [email protected] to grab your copy. If you missed this email and the link is no longer active, please do let me know.
Whole point of being on the Street Team is to stomp our feet and shake our asses as one giant monster of chaos, so that more weirdos may enjoy the book.
One ass shaking can disappear in a crowd, but LOTS of asses turns into a party! That's right, I want us to shake our booties in unison so people can see the fun from far and wide, and then they can join in shaking what their mama gave them alongside us.
Whether that is you sharing your own reviews with reader's groups on Facebook, making fun memes on Instagram, or just clicking that share button on someone else's review is all part of the share the ARC booty love.

(Reviews on Amazon will not be open until release date April 2nd 2024, but please do share your reviews on GR, Bookbub, and copy and paste to the zon when it's available, as they don't allow reviews on pre-orders. Due to the tight deadline on this launch, I have not been able to format and prepare the paperback before launch for early reviews.)

Please also collect those tropes that you find as you read and help me create a comprehensive list of lures/trigger warnings for future readers Content Warnings.
And you are welcome to post your thoughts on Goodreads/StoryGraph/BookBub until the ebook is available for reviews on Amazon on April 2nd. I do ask that if you've read and chosen to review on other sites to help zon algorithms by copy and pasting your review to the zon once available, as books do not get listed in the zon's newsletters without having at least 50 reviews, and it really helps small fries like me reach more readers.
If you loved Her Alien Warrior, and have not read book one Her Alien Savior, please consider helping out Her Alien Savior reach more readers!
We finally broke 50 reviews on Amazon for Her Alien Savior!!
(TW: Her Alien Savior has one FFM scene, it is not a menage, it is still a fated mates, and it has an on-page death, you can check out the reviews to confirm if this book is the right fit for you. Many people who are not into FFM were not deterred from enjoying the story.)

And if Her Alien Warrior did not light your hearts on fire that is okay! I'm aware that not every book is for every reader. You are welcome to withdraw from the ARC team if you find the book is not for you, just let me know so I can remove you from the active ARC emails.
I'll be sending another email on Launch Day!
