About this ebook

These space pirates sail the high skies looking for adventure, and a woman to end their curse.

Dragon-shifter Lochlann left home to avoid a war he didn’t believe in. Now as Captain of The Conqueror, in charge of a misfit crew, all he wants is to return without the label of coward. He’s been offered one chance at redemption: Find Margot, a noblewoman’s missing sister. The only problem is, the woman disappeared years ago, and his closest lead is a stunningly beautiful look-a-like droid crafted in her image. Alexis is programed to be everything he could ever desire, but getting her to reveal her secrets proves to be a true challenge for this alpha male.

Being a base model pleasure droid isn’t as glamorous as it sounds. Alexis can’t remember a time when she wasn’t the property of others. Multiple surgeries, and endless tests, have amounted to a life not worth living. When a pirate crew visits her facility, she sneaks onto their ship. Desperate not to be returned to her owners, she strikes a deal with the alluring captain. Pretend to be Margot in exchange for freedom.

Ratings and reviews

The answer to what happened to Lady Kendall's sister from The Stubborn Lord: A Qurilixen World Novel (Dragon Lords Book 6). Wow! Lochlann and Alexis' story is awesome. Lochlann is trying to restore his honor and be able to return home to Qurilixen. Alexis is the companion model nine-point-seven and she wants to end her suffering. Of course with Lochlann being dragon shifter, he must protect her and is instantly drawn to her. Once Alexis' secret is revealed and we find out that her previous owners don't want to let her go, an epic escape commences. Alexis holds the information about Margo (Lady Kendall's lost sister). Somehow Alexis and Lochlann bond - she feels safe with him and she has become his everything. The whole crew gets some great page time and Rick (who in my Doctor Who addled brain has been labeled Ricky the Idiot) actually shines (I really cannot wait for his story). Alexis proves many times just how strong of a character she is despite everything she has gone through. Lots of great cameos from the Dragon Lords, Var, and Space Lords series. It's a fantastic page turner with a great story and a few smexy scenes. As I read mainly for story, this book is exactly what I like.

I received the ebook for Free to Give My True Personal Review & as I was SO LATE in getting it read I brought the audio & I want disappointed in this out of this world love story. I haven't read many Michelle Pillow's books but I had read the Dragon Shifter from Qurilixen, so it wasn't strange for me. There were some comical aspects that comes out & I found that this reminded me of 'Space Balls' the movie from back in the 1980's lol 😆 😄 as well as some hideous imaginative descriptions 😖😱. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Another chance to romp with our Dragon Lords offshoot heroes!! A wonderful mix of Sci-fi and PNR romance. We finally get to find out what has happened to Margot!!!! Lochlann is captain of a very motley, enthusiastic and exuberant crew but he has a mission from Jarek, find Margot! When the ship finds a clue at a pleasure doll manufacturing plant the crew descends to try and find Margot but the cute but randy Rick finds a pleasure doll who seemingly wants to escape and they get her onboard. Lochlann can't believe the uncanny likeness that Alexis has to Margot. Alexis has been programmed, tampered with, enhanced and upgraded to become the epitome of pleasure droids. But in moments of lucidity she tries to sabotage her owners company. She makes it on board with Rick but she soon suffers from downloading too much info too quickly and gets stuck in a loop and has a hard time telling what is real and what is fantasy. When the ship is attacked she does her best to help her rescuers. I love this crew of misfits! Rick is that little brother who is fascinated with women to the extreme, Vic and Lucien bicker as brothers do. Dev is stoic and Lochlann carries the weight of the world on his shoulders, suffering from a self imposed disconnection from his homeworld. Alexis is such a strong but equally mentally fragile character. The unfolding of her story, intertwined with snapshots of Margots life, is quite emotive and I had a tear a time or two! Mucky doesn't quite get what he has coming to him but he does get a right good kicking (literally!!) The Conqueror crew will steal your heart!
