I liked this alien romance, especially the world-building. I'm looking forward to the rest in the series. I'm hoping I like the romance between the other characters more than I did Lothan and Ada.
The reason I didn't give it a full five stars is because I didn't like what Ada did. Lothan is willing to give up everything and die for her, and I feel like it takes forever for her to be committed to him. I know it may be a more realistic portrayal of a woman thrust into an alien culture, but I just didn't like how long it took her to get on board.
There are a lot of spicy scenes, but the alien Lothan isn't that different anatomically than a human other than sharp teeth and skin that can change color.
