I Married A Lizardman by Regine Abel

4.0

---

I thought this story did an excellent job of examining cultural and species differences, along with cultural trauma, through the lens of 2 well meaning individuals getting married. Susan had been dealt a crappy hand in life and that was the only reason she agreed to marry Olix. She was sweet, compassionate, and patient. Olix was a lil bit grumpy, but mostly overwhelmed by the challenges his people were facing. Their love story was sweet and tender with plenty of foibles and spice to break it up. 

Spice: 4/
