A Mate For Max - Genetically Altered Humans, #17

Max doesn't need anyone. Not human, nor his own kind, Xeno Sapiens. After all, it was his human mate who dropped him for another. And his Xeno Sapien brother who stabbed him in the back to get her. He certainly doesn't want to need the flea-infested ragamuffin who wants his help to find his mom. Elena sees sexy Maximus Xeno Sapien as grumpy, muscled, and large as life. But he saves her from her ex, saves her children-and after being exposed to a dangerous chemical-for a brief, lustful night is hers. Only to forget the next day.
But when the drug cycles through his body again, she takes advantage of his crazed desire and makes him hers again. What Elena doesn't realize is Max doesn't forget. * The story behind the series: When futuristic Earth finds alien DNA and creates a new species of hybrids in hidden labs, Dr. Robyn Saraven helps the "creatures" escape. She uses her connections to establish their own city on Earth-Ground where they can learn, grow, and avoid the corruption and greed that created them.
* Each book can be read as a standalone, but will be richer if read in order. Other books in the Genetically Altered Humans Series:Book 1-Xeno SapiensBook 2-Earth-GroundBook 3-SirenBook 4-Beast's BeautyBook 5-Almost HumanBook 6-Forbidden TouchesBook 7-Coveting AvaBook 8-For EverlyBook 9-Assassin's MateBook 10-SextetBook 11-Tempting TempestBook 12-Falling For Trance  Book 13-Damaged GoodsBook 14-Alien's BrideBook 15-Dual LivesBook 16-Reson's LessonBook 17-A Mate For MaxBook 18-Dragon's MateBook 19-Fated "This is the one, the book that has become my favorite out of all the previous sixteen books in the Xeno Sapiens series."
