This companion story provides readers with a charming glimpse into the lives of the beloved characters from the main series, offering a satisfying extension to the Alienated universe.
The novella takes place after the events of "Alienated" and serves as a bridge between the first and second books in the series. It primarily focuses on the romantic relationship between Aelyx and Cara, allowing readers to further explore their dynamic and witness the growth of their connection.

This was super cute! My problem with it was the fact that it could take place in almost any series that involved alien/Earth encounters. It didn't tie me enough to what came before, or really hint at what will come after. Still, it made me smile and laugh, and that's exactly what I was looking for today.
It was a cute fluffy little story. I really liked it.
I loved how Aelyx was so ignorant about Christmas. Can't wait for Invaded!
This was so short I didn't even realize! It had about 100 pages of alienated in it but put this was a lovely treat! I can't wait for the third book to come out!
Very cute. Made me want to get back into this world and these characters.
