Angie was interesting. I wanted to like her more than I did. She took the place of her twin since she was already married and pregnant. I get why Angie needed to leave but I just didn't enjoy this plot plus I wanted to know what happened to the sister and the husband. This came out Nov 2021 so may be more coming with more answers, but the series currently fizzled for me.

Ramliel by A.M. Griffin

 

2.5 Star

When the Yatur came to earth they promised to bring medical and scientific advancement in exchange Earth had to send women. These women would be married off to men other planets that had low women birthrate. Mia was selected to go to a distant planet and marry someone she didn’t know. She had no choice in the matter. Her chosen mate was Ramliel Takeria. He knew she was going to be his mate from a small age, but he didn’t want her. When they are supposed to meet for the first time, he’s a no show. Will they find a way to be happy?

I struggled with this one. I really didn’t like Ramliel. He was a complete ass through most of the book until he saw what Mia looked like. Then he was all in with the marriage. He had a mistress the entire time they were married which is a huge no for me. The other big HELL no was the almost instantaneous forgiveness Mia gives to Ram after he left her for his mistress. I will say the mistress claimed to be pregnant with his child and he wanted to be in the child’s life, but he literally takes her word for it. This woman was going to be thrown out her very nice digs because Ram was done with her but yeah, she’s totally pregnant with your baby. Then he’s shocked Mia isn’t happy to except him back into her heart and home. Mia does end up forgiving him very quickly like days later all because he sent her diary entries saying he’s so sorry. Blah
