Colonization by Aubrie Dionne

Colonization (Paradise Reclaimed, #1)

by Aubrie Dionne

Finding a new home has never been so dangerous. Andromeda has spent all seventeen years of her life aboard a deep space transport vessel destined for a paradise planet. Her safe cocoon is about to break open as Paradise 21 looms only one month away, and she must take the aptitude tests to determine her role on the new world and her computer assigned life mate. As a great-granddaughter of the Commander of the ship, she wants to live up to her family name. But, her forbidden love for her childhood friend, Sirius, distracts her and she fails the tests.

The results place her in a menial role in the new colony and pair her with Corvus, the oaf. But when Andromeda steps foot on Paradise 21, her predestined future is the least of her worries. Alien ghosts from a failed colonization warn her of a deadly threat to her colony. And when Sirius's ship crashes on the far ridge in an attempt to investigate, she journeys to rescue him with Corvus. Andromeda now must convince the authorities of the imminent danger to protect her new home. What she didn't expect was a battle of her own feelings for Sirius and Corvus.

Can she save the colony and discover her true love?

Colonization is a YA sci-fi type book, it was fast pacing. Andromeda has her life all planned for her, I mean everything, her life, her job even her lifemate. Paradise 21 is a place for new beginnings but it is not something Andromeda is looking forward to especially since she was hoping her lifemate would be her best friend Sirius, no that would be too easy, her lifemate is actually Corvus and Sirius is now her enemy.

The book is full of action and adventure, very futuristic and a good read.
