Human slaves can never defy their alien masters -- or can they? Rose Rico never believed the rumors, that the government was secretly selling human beings to the Alphas in exchange for advanced alien technology. The idea that human sex slaves were a luxury item throughout the galaxy was just too ridiculous to take seriously -- until Rose found herself, along with hundreds of other human captives, bound for the far reaches of space, and compelled to cater to the depraved desires of her new alien masters. As a rule, pleasure slaves don't live very long, especially the stubborn ones. But Rose refuses to give up. Someday, somehow, she'll win back her freedom -- or die trying! The beginning of a provocative new saga of slavery and rebellion.
Rosa didn't expect to find herself enslaved by Aliens and expected to be a sexual slave. Earth people, known as Solarians, are always in heat and therefore valued as sex slaves, especially among races that only go into heat rarely and not always at the same time as their preferred gender. Some abuse their slaves, others almost love their slaves. Governments on Earth are selling people for technology.
Rosa is determined not to let herself submit, she's planning to be free and she grabs a chance given by another group to escape with some other slaves, many of whom don't know what to do with freedom.
I could have done with some more background detail but overall I found it an interesting book and there was a lot less sex than implied by the back of the book, which actually made it a more interesting read than I expected but I think it could have been better telegraphed on the back.
