Review


Melissa Landers simply took my breath away, again. With her amazing creativity and imagination, Invaded simply came to life right before my eyes. I was a little doubtful about this one, knowing that some authors struggle to engage readers when writing a sequel, but that is not the case this time. I loved reading about Cara's adventures on an alien planet, and Aelyx's journey to mend the alliance. But the most amazing part in the whole story was Melissa's ability to keep the long distance relationship alive between Cara and Aelyx. This was a very fast read for me, and I highly recommend if you read the first book, Alienated. Or if you like an action-packed romance, full of leaps and sometimes falls. I'm pleased to say that with Invaded, Melissa has captured my attention, and has left me wanting more!
