I loved this couple. Salukh is so sweet and patient. Tiffany was r@ped by the bad aliens before landing on Not-Hoth, so she has trauma she needs to work through. I appreciated that it took time for her to get used to Salukh, and that her trauma wasn't just immediately gone (which has seemed to happen in other books I've read with heroines who were r@ped). 

I was a little surprised that this book seemed to jump over the stories of many other women finding their mates. Others are mentioned, and I assume we'll get to their books eventually. The jumping around in time just threw me a bit as well as the chapters with Josie. I know her book is next, and I just didn't expect her to have chapters in this one.
