Before now I had never heard of Victoria Aveline. Audible recently has a 2 for 1 sale and I happened upon this novel simply because I recognized the narrator, Stephen Dexter. I am happy to say I was not disappointed. Stephen once again did a fabulous job and is able to change his voice clearly for both male and female characters. I'm hoping that he may be the narrator for the others in this series.
Choosing Theo is the first nook in The Clecanian series. As I said previously, I had never heard or read a book by Victoria Aveline until now. As with most books I read, I love a good romance. This book was no exception. The storyline was one I had never heard before and found myself captivated from the beginning.
Imagine living your normal life and suddenly you are kidnapped. However, it is not your usually kidnapping as you are kidnapped and taken to another planet. Oh yeah! When she tries to evade her captors she is found and realizes she's on a whole new world. Jade is on a planet that essentially worships women and marriages are not how we view them on Earth. Plus, women get to choose their man from a line up and they are all sexy. Jade is the first known human to arrive on the planet so she is married off while they investigate who took her.
Theo is mixed race and is covered in scars so no woman has ever chosen to marry him. However, Jade is taken with him from the beginning. Theo is sure she must be a spy and is bound to prove it.
This is a must read for those who like romance and fantasy. I cannot wait to read the other books in this series.
