Tempting Auzed by Victoria Aveline
4.5
adventurous fast-paced

 4.5 ⭐

Doing a series reread to prepare for the new book.

Plot Summary:
Alejandra is a survivor. Abduction, a near drowning, and being lost in an alien forest? Easy. Things were finally starting to go her way when the most intense, grumpy, and insanely tempting man she’s ever seen rescues her from a monster. And then things get infinitely more complicated.

Auzed has his orders. He is to find the missing human and deliver her to Tremanta. Getting caught trespassing in Sauven territory was not part of the plan. Neither was pretending to be the sexy beauty’s fiancé to protect her from forced marriage to a Sauven stranger…but here they are.

✔️Fake Dating
✔️Forced proximity
✔️Grumpy/Sunshine

Thoughts:
Oooh I love Auzed and Alex's dynamic even more the second time around! They are total opposites and delightfully confounded by the other.

And, unrelated- but OMG the insights into Maxu in this book are DELICIOUS. Such a trouble-maker and I cannot wait for his book!
