Short, sexy, and sweet. When the book opens up, human Risda colonist Naomi is hopped up on alien fertility drugs and as horny as an Ice Planet Barbarian with unfulfilled resonance. She wants to have a baby but her chosen sperm donor has ditched her at the last minute, so with her fertility window about to close she throws herself on the mercy of Ainar, the only port custodian on duty that night, who is more than happy to lend a hand, and any other body parts that might be required. Beautiful, beautiful Ainar is so sweet, earnest and pure and immediately falls for Naomi but doesn’t want to push her too hard since she was only looking for a stud service and not a relationship when she came to him. This being a romance, they of course work it out, some terrible relationship advice from co-workers not withstanding. Low angst, high heat, I only wish the story were longer so I could spend more time with these hot (not so) dummies.
