This story backtracks to the very beginning of all our adventures to tell the love story of Zennek and Marlene. The story begins in the "present" but we quickly backtrack as Marelene and Zennek reflect on their unlikely pairing. She is bold and unafraid of her new surroundings (unlike the other humans). He is... so shy. He never thought he would resonate to anyone. They're so perfect.
I read these on audiobook so it did take me a little bit to adjust to Marlene's accent, but I ended up adoring her as an FMC. I love how brave and rational she is, and I really loved her backstory. Zennek is lovely and perfect. The way he adopted her language, culture, and even superstition is so perfect and romantic to me. Also they're gonna have the only TRI-lingual alien human babies!! Crazy!!
While I really enjoyed this book, I did feel that the "current timeline" plot was kinda dumb and unnecessary. I get that it was just a vehicle to shoot us back into the past but like... you could tell. You know?
These are fluffy and fun. I always recommend
