ARC Review:
Oh my Goddess! This book was Soooooo goood! I mean I had high expectations only because I really loved the first book in the series but this book completely blew me away! I cried, I laughed, I swooned, it gave me all the feels and now I wanna move to another planet too! Seriously, I absolutely adored this book, the banter was amazing, the spice? Iconic. No other words to describe it! I’m just utterly grateful that I even got an ARC of Space for more, I felt super lucky to be able to read this book before it came out cause I’ve been dying to finally read it!
To sum it up, this book was amazing, 1000000/10 would recommend reading it if you like monster/alien romance cause iconic!
Sooo excited for everyone to read it!!

I think this author really struggles with the whole "show don't tell" thing. This entire book suffers from a lack of showing the story happen. It's all just telling you what happens and not allowing the author to come to conclusions on their own. For example, you didn't need to sit down and tell me that Phelix cares about helping people. The reader is able to tell as much just by the fact he's a doctor smuggling medical schematics. It's all very hand-holdy.
This is supposed to be a romance but there's hardly any romancing that happens. It's not romantic at all. There's no dates or courting. There's only like 3 major sex scenes but the rest of the "spice" is just masturbating and imagining things. Which is a huge pet peeve of mine in writing. I find it cheap and lazy when authors include characters in the shower getting off to the thought of another character. There are other ways to show sexual attraction. Plus, it's SO overdone. It happens in every romance book at this point.
Eden is extremely insecure and doubtful until the very end. She was constantly trying to get herself out of the throuple. Alyways questioning Phelix and Mezli. Even when they were extremely explicit in what they wanted. I didn't like her at all.
Mezli is self-centered all the time. Everything is about her and how things benefit her. It seemed like the author tried to write her as realizing how self-centered she was but it did not come off that way. She get her apology but it was accepted way too easy for me. She defintley needed to grovel and beg for their forgiveness.
Phelix was fine. He's the character I didn't have any issues with, actually. His actions made the most sense. A hot alien doctor trying to do right in the world, how could you go wrong?
Also, this is entire book is just miscommunication after miscommunication. If they're not miscommunicating about one thing, then they're doing it with another. So, if you hate miscommunication like I do, beware.

Space for Love was in my top five reads of 2023, and easily in my top ten alien romance reads period, so I was really excited when I managed to snag a spot on Emily Antoinette’s coveted ARC team to read this beauty ahead of its release. Now here we are in 2024 and Space for More has secured a spot in this year’s line up too!
I’ve been practically feral for Mezli’s story ever since Emily announced that her story would be an FFM romance. There are so few FF-anything stories in monster and alien romance, but poly triads like FFM are an even more rare occurrence and are often super hard to get the balance right. But Emily Antoinette does not let us down with Mezli, Eden, and Phelix’s story — the balance truly wowed me. All three love interests are valued, respected, loved, and given equal screen time throughout the story, even with the secret spy shenanigans and miscommunications abound.
While this one was a lot more angsty than the first Spire Station story the humor, the spice, the sweetness, the raw connection… it was all there in spades and it made the angst worth it, in my opinion. If you’re worried about your heart aching, I promise she makes it all better in the end!!
I don’t want to get too much further into discussing the story because I’m trying to be a little better about spoilers in my ARC reads, but I wanted to say that Emily Antoinette really knows how to write spice with heavy doses of heart. Some of the scenes are absolutely filthy (in the best possible way) and she still manages to work in these lines that make my heart flutter for the characters.
I’m going to share my favorite Phelix line because it’s fairly tame and doesn’t reveal too much (we are all reading these stories for the HEA, you know that they’re going to get together in the end so

Such a great book! I appreciate that the fated mates trope has a fresh take. They’re not just together because they’re mated, they’re working on. They grow together.
