Ella and the Alien Prince is a short steamy scifi alien romance by Margo Bond Collins. This story in the Once Upon a Fairy Tale Night is a steamy retelling/twist on the classic Cinderella story.
This story is a quick, but enjoyable read. The author reveals to readers the Khanavai, who are an alien race, who helped save Earth from destruction from another alien race who is simply out to destroy everything. All the Khanavai want in return? Brides. This story is short, sweet and to the point. The pace is well done and kept me engaged from beginning to end. The author alternates between the two primary characters of this short story so you get both viewpoints which I honestly appreciate.
I like and appreciate how the author puts enough in this story to truly make me think Cinderella. For readers looking for a story with a bit more depth and development…this short story might not be for you. But for those who enjoy a good “love at first sight” or more like…”love at first kiss” then I’m sure that you are going to enjoy this novella.
I am rating this story 5 out of 5 stars. If the other stories are anything like this one then I am sure that I will enjoy the rest of this collection with the Khanavai and their human brides.
