Super cute alien romance with some of the best representation of communication. If you like age gap, Daddy dom romance then you'll love Maxon and Odette.
This was a low stakes cozy romance read, no major conflicts happen, no middle of the book break up Odette our human FMC is all to happy to leave earth behind and Maxon our shark-like alien MMC, click from the start and work together to grow into a very sweet and wholesome couple. He takes care of her, adores her and helps her love herself more, and she helps him let go, stop putting everyone else first and learn to enjoy his retirement.
Pros - Plus sized rep, healthy couples depicted throughout the story.
Cons - none, I got nothing, this book left no crumbs.
4 chili peppers 🌶️ on the spice scale.
Genre: Sci-Fi/monster romance
POV: Duel
Ending: HEA
sexy tropes - age gap, 2 🍆, Dd/lg, mating frenzy, alien abduction. insta-love
My Spice Rating - 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
1 🌶️- May include hands, more kissing, "fade to black" scenes. No open door spice.
2 🌶️🌶️ - Spice happens, but it isn't often. May include open door scenes but they're infrequent or rare.
3 🌶️🌶️🌶️ - Spice happens more often and it is more detailed, Spice is part of the plot, or the book is 50/50 spice to plot.
4 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ - More spice than plot, may contain kinky themes.
5 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ - Absolute smut. Very little plot, sex heavy. The spicy scenes are very explicit, may contain triggering or dangerous themes, Dark romances and erotica.
