Convergence by Etta Pierce

5.0

The author takes the abduction to seduction trope and flips it on hits head. The FMC is a behaviorist for the L.A. police department. She is abducted by the commander of an alien ship who needs her to teach him how to be a convincing connoisseur of human flesh as he is on a mission to infiltrate a pleasure ship trafficking in human cargo.

This story is brilliant and wildly unique. I prefer high stakes and a deeper plot in my alien romance and this checked all the boxes. The first half of the book is dedicated to bringing down the trafficking ring and the required proximity of the main characters allows them to get to know one another so that respect, awe, and attraction can bloom. The latter half of the book is dedicated to settling the rescued humans on another planet as well as their burgeoning romance. Beautifully done.

sloooow burn // HEA // forced proximity // over 30 FMC // alien MMC who looks like an alien // bonded mates // possessive // protective // mutual awe and respect // spice but not until the end
