Just okay. The simplicity of the writing stood out to me, but not in a good way. I'll likely continue the series, yes, but I'm hoping I enjoy the plot and characters more in the following books.
3.5/4 Har-Loh Stars
Although their story wasn't my favourite, it was very cute and I loved Rukh and Harlow.
The book begins when Harlow is kidnapped by Rukh and taken to his cave. Before she was capped in the head by this barbarian, she'd felt her Khui purr. When she woke up, she first saw an alien. He was dirty all over, stunk and was stark naked. But not only that...he was also ignorant to her language and the language of the sa kuhis-sakh.
The love and sexual relationship between Harlow and Rukh is instant-no shock there. I adored the communication between them both and how Harlow took care of Rukh and thought him how to do certain things he was unknown to.

“I,” he says, grazing his thumb over my mouth. “Will always need you. A male cannot exist apart from his heart.” Neither”

“Shit?” he repeats, and touches my cheek. “Harlow shit?”
Spoiler
In this book, we get to know that Harlow had cancer when she was living on earth but when she got her Kuhi, she was healed. There was some scenes where I thought the cancer was back but Rukh and Harlow get their HEA.

I'm giving up on this series and this author. While it was somewhat better than the previous atrocity of an installment, it has become clear that the author no longer cares about plot and prefers to just show low-stakes vibes and domestic life with some light conflict and repetitive sex scenes.
We'll always have IPB 1 and 2 I guess. Such a disappointment.

This felt like an upgraded version of Raahosh’s book. I wasn’t sure how I’d feel at first with the whole kidnapping angle, but since Harlow wasn’t really fighting it, I found myself just going along too.
The story centers on Rukh (a total wild man/Tarzan type) who takes Harlow. She’s confused about what’s happening, but instead of trying to go back, she feels guilty about possibly killing the others she left behind at the ship and chooses to stay with him on his journey.
What I loved is that Rukh is completely innocent when it comes to sex. He understands pleasure, but the concept of sex itself is totally new to him. As Harlow introduces him to words and ideas, he slowly pieces things together, even their "resonance". I didn’t expect to like this trope, but it was actually really endearing watching her teach him about relationships step by step.
Rukh quickly became a sympathetic character, too. I figured out who he was as soon as he mentioned his father, and it made me care about him even more.
One side note: Liz. She’s hilarious and sharp when she’s bantering, but her inner monologue makes her unbearable. It reminded me why I liked her in the first book and why she drove me crazy in the second. It’s all about whose perspective she’s in.
This book also takes the series forward in a fun way by finally diving into the whole “kit” aspect. It moves the larger plot along and adds some fresh stakes, which I really liked.
The Honeymoon section was a sweet bonus. It flashes back to their time on the beach, showing how they built their home together. Simple but heartwarming.
