» PLOT «
Liz Cramer swears she'll find a way off of this alien planet she's stuck on--then she meets Raahosh, the surliest and stubbornest alien, who won't leave her alone, and she just might be okay with that...

I love me a good enemies to lovers, but the ending of this one was a bit disappointing.

I'm honestly not a fan of the fact that all of these IPB books include a way for the main couple to separate from the main group and couple up there. (You'll see this in my reviews of the next two IPB books.) I understand why being separated from the main group would build tension and allow the main couple to shine, but the reasons for the separations are dumb and they literally happen in every book.

» READABILITY «
the reason why i continue to read this series is because it is so easy to read

» CHARACTERS «
Liz and Raahosh aren't bad characters, just not as good as Georgie.

» WRITING «
the writing is pretty consistent with the first book, but the content isn't as good

» OVERALL «
one of the weaker IPB books
