A sweet, well-written marriage of convenience alien romance! I loved it. The descriptions of the culture clashes and awkwardness of different species getting together was so well done.
I would describe this as a cozy, slice of life type romance. There's a subtle plot, not a big adventure type plot.
I appreciated how the couple had to work to communicate their needs and expectations in a realistic way. The caring relationship that developed was so sweet, and I loved how spicy things got between them.
The author did a great job with the realistic world-building and character development. I love nature and biology, so I enjoyed the explanations about the farming and the mystery of what was going on with the wildlife and environment.
I didn't give it a full five stars because I got stressed when Susan starts off trying to get her new clan interested in farming after their explanation about why they don't want to. I was glad I kept reading to see how things worked out.
This is my first book that I've read by this author, and I'm excited to read more!
