Alien Shield by Ursa Dax
4.0
adventurous emotional medium-paced

I loved this premise! The sexual tension of our alien hero knowing that human lady Serena was his mate, not telling her, and instead trying to befriend her to make her fall for him on her own 🥹 My heart!

He was such a restrained stoic guy and she was such a horny awkward person (you could also hear her Newfoundland accent, loved that). She was drawing him (like one of her French girls) and studying his anatomy (for science but totally not for science) 😉 I was living!

You might think I’m crazy but the thing that would have made this even better, imo, is if it had been super slow burn. I was really feeling the unresolved sexual tension and I didn’t want it to end!
