I Got Abducted by Aliens and Now I’m Trapped in a Rom-Com by Kimberly Lemming

5 Stars

Dorothy Valentine is close to getting her PhD in wildlife biology when she’s attacked by a lion. On the bright side, she’s saved! On the not-so-bright side, it’s because they’re abducted by aliens. In her scramble to escape, Dory and the lion commandeer an escape pod and crash-land on an alien planet that has...dinosaurs?

Dory and her new lion bestie, Toto, are saved in the nick of time by a mysterious and sexy alien, Sol. On their new adventure, they team up with the equally hot, equally dangerous Lok, who may or may not be a war criminal. Whether it be trauma, fate, or intrigue, Dory can’t resist the attraction that’s developing in their trio....

As this ragtag group of misfits explore their new planet, Dory learns more about how and why they’ve all ended up together, battles more prehistoric creatures than she imagined (she imagined...zero), and questions if she even wants to go back home to Earth in this hilarious and steamy alien romance adventure comedy romp.

I loved listening to this audiobook. It had so much humor in it. It was lighthearted and so cute. I loved the FMC and the lion add in the two MMC who want her and it was just a good book. I enjoyed the adventure and the challenges in the book. The aliens that kidnapped FMC were amusing in how stupid they were. I really want to know what happens with FMC’s family and how it plays out on Earth but I always want that information. Cannot wait for book 2.

Anna and the Alien by Honey Phillips

 

2 Star

Anna just wanted a vacation from life not to be kidnapped by aliens and forced to help an injured alien. When the ship they are on crash lands on a strange planet she’s forced to work with and trust the injured alien in hopes of making it home to earth. Jakkar was on a mission to find a new planet for his people when he was taken and imprisoned. He’s forbidden from mating with someone outside his race but when he meets Anna he can’t walk away. Can the survivors find safety and happiness on this new planet?

I have never been so happy to read a series out of order than I was with this book. Hanna in the hitman was free which is why I read that first, loved it, and then I went back to read this one. I figured that if I liked Hanna, I would like this one and I did not. I struggled to finish it and if I’d started with this book, I’d never would have read Hanna and the Hitman.  I didn’t like Jakkar was up until the very end of the book I can’t be with Anna. Nothing is worth losing my people for but he won’t stay away from her. Every time he does this it hurts Anna. I like a good dark or bully romance, but this was just cruel. It literally took his best friend telling him she would be worth being outcast for him to get it through his thick skull. She of course felt it was perfectly fine to forgive him instantly. This makes me sad because it was an interesting take on space aliens. Since I liked the 8th one, I'm going to try to read the 2^nd-7^th ones to see if they get better as she writes more.
