Unexpected Prize by Layla Stone

He was born to be a gladiator.

He was a champion.

He was not ready to face the biggest fight of his life against a luscious but stubborn alien woman from Earth.

On a desert planet is an alien race of angny-gladiators; chief among them is Jarr-o, a brutally scarred champion who wants to change his future. Instead of fighting to the death in the Chancellor’s famous arena, he wants to train the new warriors. But his life was rocked by one small fierce female from Earth.

Cara was raised as a spy on Earth and used by the mob until she was no longer needed and sold to space traders. Years in a cage she finds herself being used as payment to a scarred alien gladiator with dark grey skin and tusks.

Jarr-o is unprepared for the emotional battle of wanting a woman who refuses to obey him, while being hunted by an unknown fighter determined to win his title in a death-match. Struggling between his desires and Cara’s rebellious nature, he is blindsided by a token from his past. As the mystery unfolds – the unknown fighter makes himself known and Jarr-o has to find a way to win a fight specifically designed for him to lose everything…but if he wins, his unexpected prize will restore his broken heart and soul.

Note to readers: This is a Sci-fi romance contains a lot of action between alien gladiators and rouge beasts, along with a determined alpha male falling for a feisty Earth spy. So if you like it gritty, rough and sexy this series is for you.
