• "Writing that moves readers to ponder their hearts is good writing, and that's what readers will find with Workman. Her protagonist is strong willed, her antagonist is easy to hate, and her mentor is easy to love." Kathleen Brebes 
• "What a ride!" Taffy Lovell

• "I love a book where the details fit together like pieces in a puzzle..." Rachel Morgan 
• "It's superb!!! I loved the multiple points of view. I loved Venus. Michael was tough to like at first, but by the end - man, oh man, did I fall hard for him. Zaren is yummy! I want a guardian like him. Heck, I want a man like him! AND THOSE BOOTS. PLEASE, PRETTY PLEASE CAN I HAVE A PAIR?" Jenna Heartsong

4.0 out of 5 stars Exiled! November 11, 2011

By S. L. Lovell

Format:Paperback

What a ride!
Venus is kidnapped and sent to Earth to fulfill a special mission. But who is REALLY behind the kidnapping??
I can't tell you. You'll just have to read RaShelle's book and find out what happens with Venus. Does she succeed? Who should she trust? Why oh why is there another love triangle with hot guys and cliffhanger?

What I liked:
Venus being human and confused by it
Zaren
Michael
The story of Venus' gods
The boots, where can I get some?

Didn't like:
The bad guy; he's evil
Venus being so mopey (though I understand why)
Some info dumping
Needed one more edited

Rating: PG 16
V: Yes
L: Yes but not "human" swearing
S: No but sensual scenes

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing adventure January 28, 2012

By dancin-debbie

Format:Paperback

Exiled by RaShelle Workman is a YA Sci-Fi Romance about Venus, a sixteen year old princess who is about to go through a traditional right of passage where she becomes immortal. But before she can begin her journey things go terribly wrong and she falls ill and passes out. She wakes up to find herself accused of things she never did and exiled to Earth, a planet that will kill her in a weeks time.

Luckily, her guardian Zaren followed her, and was given the parameters that will allow her exile to be revoked and allow her to return to her home planet. She must help the earth boy Michael find his soul mate, and true love. Something Venus thinks, given humans volatile emotions, should be easy enough. Except things are not exactly as they seem and humans are unpredictable in what they choose to do. Now the clock is ticking and as Venus grows weaker, she is desperate to help Michael so she can go home to find out who set her up, but will she live long enough to make it happen?

I really loved the concept of the plot and how RaShelle weaves all the intricate sub plots into her story line. I fell hard for her characters and found my self rooting for them. Well the good guys anyway. But I thought she developed a wonderfully evil antagonist as well in Vinny.

I was drawn page after pager deeper into the story and was left in the end wondering what would happen next. I thought Exiled was a swift page turner and look forward to the next book in the series.

So some are rooting Team Zaren or Team Michael. I am rooting for them both, and interested to see how it all falls out as the story goes forward. I don't want to choose sides just yet. But if you want to know what I am talking about then you should hurry and get your copy of Exiled by RaShelle Workman so you can see exactly what I am talking about.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally something different in YA! December 27, 2011

By Magan K Vernon

Format:Kindle Edition

In a world of vampire and werewolf novels, Workman is a breathe of fresh air by bringing a new era into science fiction.

I loved the alien mythos and fell in love with not only the characters, but the story as well.

Looking forward to the rest of the series and eager to learn more about Workman's alien world!
