First off I have no read space for love (Spire Station #1) this was still able to be read as a standalone and was totally enjoyable.
This was such a sweet book, the relationship and plot are very fast paced, happening mostly in the events of a single week but there was still so much self-reflection, work and love from all the characters it was such an enjoyable read, I might have teared up a few times. The Author includes guides in the front for pronunciation, triggers and so much helpful info it was so amazing to see it all so clearly organized. This was a take on Alien fated mates which explains how quickly everyone get's involved.
I really loved Mezli as a character, she's fun and bubbly and sticks up for her friends but still has her own issues. She's take charge without being perceived as a mean girl. Overall, I think she was my favorite. Phelix was a very close second because how often do you get to see a male character with body issues, who isn't always in charge, who's depicted as being able to cry and be in his feelings when alone. The alien race and nobility he and Mezli are a part of are known for being very closed off and hiding their emotions but even, so they actively look for body language and try and read one another and part of their story is seeing him being allowed to show more and it being seen as a good thing which is so refreshing. Emily writes poly, plus sized characters so well, in no way did their dynamic ever feel forced or not enough. It was so sweet I was so happy for them while reading even their parents are rooting for them and I just love that.
Pros - Plus sized rep, poly rep, healthy couples depicted throughout the story. No shame involved for anyone in any stage of their personal journey.
Cons - none, I got nothing, this book left no crumbs.
4 chili peppers 🌶️ on the spice scale.
Genre: romantasy/monster romance
POV: Multi
Ending: HEA
sexy tropes - knotting, 2 🍆, polyamory, public sex, MFF, FF, MF
My Spice Rating - 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
1 🌶️- May include hands, more kissing, "fade to black" scenes. No open door spice.
2 🌶️🌶️ - Spice happens, but it isn't often. May include open door scenes but they're infrequent or rare.
3 🌶️🌶️🌶️ - Spice happens more often and it is more detailed, Spice is part of the plot, or the book is 50/50 spice to plot.
4 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ - More spice than plot, may contain kinky themes.
5 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ - Absolute smut. Very little plot, sex heavy. The spicy scenes are very explicit, may contain triggering or dangerous themes, Dark romances and erotica.

I loved this!! So fun, charming, and H O TTTTT !! The premise was so fun, the characters were so lovable, and the vibes were immaculate. *chef's kiss*
Space For More was so much fun! The exploration of a rejected fated mate bond and finding an unexpected third mate was so angsty and everything I didn’t know I wanted! I loved seeing these three come together after getting in their own way a bit throughout the story.And the spice!! 🥵🥵 There’s double the fun alien anatomy to explore. The hallway scene?? I was not prepared!!! This book made my bisexual heart so happy.

This book was absolutely amazing. I loved every second of it. This ffm space romance was exactly what I needed!
The story is about Eden a human that visits the largest space station and she gets roped in to help stop a sale of a dangerous black market medical plan. She has to team up together with Mezil who happens to be the mate of the dealer of said plan they are trying to stop. So their plan to stop Phelix is to try to seduce him.
When they get closer and closer to each other they feel the undeniable connection between them all. I absolutely love this story as it both had plot and amazing steamy scenes. All three of them had to overcome some personal obstacles during the story and I loved how those played out.
If you are looking for a steamy queer space romance with a plot this book is one for you!
Thanks to Emily Antoinette for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.

So just to preface it I haven't read Space for Love yet, and I didn't feel completely overwhelmed or confused by Spire Station or the large cast of characters, the background information and pronunciation guide at the beginning of the book helped, too! Now that I've read Space for More, I am definitely going to read Space for Love sooner (it's been on my TBR I just get distracted).

I love how *real* the three of our main characters felt. Mezli is an absolute gremlin that hides her soft parts behind the party girl persona, Eden is an incredibly intelligent and kind doctor that craves adventure and connection, and Phelix is an insecure doctor that wants to be seen for his own merits and not just for his born nobility. They all battled their own insecurities and baggage throughout the story and I just want to give them all a big hug, especially Phelix, because I love soft tummies on wide, strong men 💜.
I also loved how *real* the navigation of a relationship as a polyamorous couple felt. There is insecurity, there is misunderstandings, there is tons of communication during intimacy, there is reassurance that everyone matters and no one is a third wheel or a unicorn. I loved that Mezli and Eden had a strong bond with each other and not *just* Phelix, I think the FFM dynamic was handled extremely well.
This book was a fun ride. It has espionage, mystery, awkward dinner parties, and extremely hot spice, and I'm so glad they all got a HEA because they deserve it.

My little bi heart was so happy with this queer world! Like aliens, 🍆🍆, secret missions and all the queer love (there is straight love too)…what more do you need? Don’t worry the spice was spicing for so many pages! The plot and spice were so balanced and I would love to learn so much more about this universe.
We get to follow along with Eden as she arrives on Spire and take in this place and aliens with her! There are a variety of different types and I loved learning about them all. Eden is looking for fun and adventure and man did she find it when she gets roped into a spy mission with the sexy Mezli! I loved that we get the POV from all three characters and see them each struggle and work through their emotions and past, especially around the topic of mates.
The tension building up to the ménage a trios was so great! With all the banter and flirting! And wow did they play and explore for many pages and I was here for absolutely all of it!
This book was sexy, fun and left me wanting so much more!
