I am not a huge fan of syfy romances but if you tell me that Debbie Cassidy is writing the story.  Okay I am in.  And let me tell you.  Rogue: Planet Athion was freaking awesome.  

The main female lead is a tough, hard as nails woman who fights to survive.  And honestly I was a fan from the start.  Once I started reading, I could not stop.  Just fast paced and action packed.  Before you know it, you're done.  Needing more!  Our female lead is Rogue.  Stolen from earth for breeding, but due to a drug given to her, turned out barren.  Then she was forced to fight in a pit with her fellow prisoners gladiator style.  They have to rely on each other to win.  Because if they do not, it's death, or something much worse for her.  When they are up against another house, one that is known for it's brutality, Rogue and her team need to win.  But when one of her team dies, another one takes his place.  He is a fierce warrior.  But is he their savior or their deaths?

I really felt like I was watching a movie with how everything played out.  The pace of the story is fast, action packed and had me totally engaged in what was going to happen next.  The characters are hard, after all this is a hard world. 

And imagine my surprise when I found out that the Plant Athion is an ongoing series by different authors.  I am intrigued enough by Rogue to give the rest a try.
