Check your trigger warnings. I don't mind a check-your-brain-at-the-door book, but this was a bit much. Almost to the point of parody, but then includes a decent amount of heavy stuff. Not for me.

You’ll like this book if you like Ruby Dixon’s books.

It’s not a perfect match for me because I’m not really into fated mates or possessive, controlling men.

I chose this book because I kept seeing it recommended on reddit threads. One thing that’s kind of unique about this book is that Theo is

considered very ugly by the standards of his own society. Not by human standards, however.

I think the writing is good and the setting is interesting. I am going to read more of these books to see how the larger story plays out. I hope Rhaego gets a book.

This was a decent read. It was interesting to read about the different world and culture on another planet, and we get a decent amount of that and plot. For me, a better book would have been longer with a lot more info about the new planet she finds herself on, but it was short and sweet, and I didn’t feel as if the author skimped on the details.

Really enjoyed this, and I wasn’t expecting much from it! It was a super believable alien story which you don’t always get from sci fi romances. It would have been a full 5 stars but I just didn’t get the butterflies that often. That being said, protect Theo at all costs (even though he can easily protect himself).
