Rock My World by Zara ZeniaMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Alien gargoyles have perched and secretly observed humans but a human group called the Rose Syndicate are threatening to use garg technology to create superweapons at the gargs feels they need to act before humans are paying the price. Mogul is a garg and has suffered for years at the hands of fellow gargs and the loss of humans that he has let into his heart in the past. He has vowed to never let that happen again and so with the help of his two friends he is determined to take down the Rose Syndicate and get off the planet. The last thing he needs is an emotional entanglement, after all his injured wings stop him from injecting the mating serum into a prospective mate even if he really wanted to. Kira is determined to unravel the mystery of objects she found at an archaeological dig near her home. Science is her friend as well as the stone gargoyles on the roof who she always sought out for sanctuary as a child - especially thanks to being lonely due to her absent father. When Kera finds Mogul's sigil at the dig site, her father and the Rose Syndicate threaten her and Mogul has to swoop in and rescue her even though he finds her beauty now she is an adult very hard to resist, but he needs to just focus on getting home. Kira might be his mate but the ships from home ar only days away and he must ignore the pull to her - can he take down the Rose Syndicate without losing his heart in the process?
I enjoyed this story which had a struggle between advanced aliens and evil humans with the relationship between Kira and Mogul at the centre. I really enjoyed some parts of the story involving the dilemma for Kira as the Syndicate was intrinsic into who her father was and her love for him, as well as her blind faith in Mogul, but there were parts of the story that I found annoying - especially the negativity of Mogul and the selfishness he showed towards Kira which was the opposite of the love for her that he seemed to also feel (even if he could not admit it to himself). Some parts of the story were a little disjointed and not very logical although I was pleased with the way that the story ended. Contains some explicit sexual content.
