They're hunting me. And I didn't even get a chance to run. But it doesn't mean I won't bite.
When I was sold into slavery, I made sure I wasn't worth bedding. I bit. I fought. I made such a snarl of things, they drugged me to try and calm me down.
They would have eventually won, had I not been rescued. Silly me, thinking that was the end of it. Of course, I would crash land on an island.
And now I'm being hunted on this exiled sector of brutal vampires.
They're after my body and my blood. Magnus is one of them. I should be terrified of the gorgeous male who has taken me to his lair. Yet, when the blood has washed off and the moon turns red from his dark deeds, I realize he's not like the others.
He's darkly beautiful. He's patient in his form of hunting me. He's powerful in the way he says he'll claim me.
But he's waiting for something. I'm not entirely sure what. Because I'm not like the females he knows. There's no way I can go into heat and take his knot like he wants. There's no way I can take his seed… Right?
Outcast Island is a standalone novel in the Exiled Sector series featuring strong AOB themes, nesting, growling, purring, breeding, and, of course, knotting.

Outcast Island: Exiled Sector Book 3 by Jennifer Thorn is an exhilarating addition to the vampire omegaverse genre.

Outcast Island by Jennifer Thorn is a dystopian paranormal romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Alyssa Avery and Ash Beverly. This is the third book in the Exiled Sector series and can be read as a standalone. This is the second book of Jennifer's that I have read, and it won't be my last. I really enjoyed the relationship between Magnus and Guðrún. I liked getting Magnus, Guðrún, and Sigurd's points of views throughout the book. Ash and Alyssa did an amazing job on the narration....

I liked this book. 3 stars for rating, 4 for spice. It had a slightly different take on how AOB works, and also having that system in vampires isn’t a common thing. I liked how their powers complemented each other. It did leave a side plot open with questions but maybe that’ll be answered in a different book with those other characters. ) One person found this helpful

This book has a fascinating AOB/vampire lore and world building. I do wish we could have seen more of life on outcast island itself, but I absolutely loved it. There are definitely some dark moments that are not for the faint of heart—the whole blood of my enemies thing, ya know? But if you like growls alphas who would do anything for their omegas then this is the book for you. And there is quite a bit of spice, with some scenes fairly early on. I’d give it 4 peppers. It’s got a lot of spice...

Magnus hasn’t broken any laws, but is on Outcast Island due to his uncontrollable powers. He is mid-fight with other alphas when a passing capsule is shot down to hopefully crush him. That capsule contains omega Gudrun, who turns out to be a match for Magnus. A win-win for this duo. Magnus will not allow her to be sold by her father, and she provides the ability to control his powers. Dark, full of chemistry and heat, an engaging listen! Narrators are unusual. The female voice has a very heavy...
