How did I end up falling for the alien that bought me? I saw his limp the first day we met when he bought me at the auction house. Even weirder, he didn't seem to want anything to do with me. At first, I thought he was just a recluse military veteran, but I never could have guessed just how deep his injuries went. Eventually, I was able to push through his tough exterior and find a kind soul underneath. Each day we spent together, I fell for the stubborn alien a little more. I wanted more than anything to help him heal. But even if he managed to heal, would he ever manage to love? Bought by the Broken Alien is the second in the steamy Auctioned to the Tal Alien series. Each book features a different woman and her muscular male Tal. The series is loosely related to the Tal Warship Romances (starting with Her Alien Admiral ), but it isn't necessary to read them first.
