"You could betray me a hundred times over, and I fear I'd still fall at your feet."

Reread #3. Yep. Everything below still stands. I love Theo with my whole heart.

*****************

Reread so I can remember characters and get caught up with the newer books in the series (I forgot that Fejo was the rakish sexy pirate that we meet in the first book😍). Still love this one so much! ❤️

Thoughts:
I cannot get over big, grumpy Theo being so unaccustomed to and starved for affection that he cannot fathom Jade being attracted to him in the slightest 😭 Instead, the only reasonable explanation is that she is some femme fatale sent to spy on him 😆

And Jade teaching Theo about kissing and face to face sexy time is just 🤌🏻🔥 SO good.

Pregnancy on page? (view spoiler)

*****************

I love these standalone sci-fi romances- especially alien romances. The tropes are always so consistent and I love that. This one checks all of the boxes for me.

Abducted and then rescued
Breeding k!nk- *the male's species is always on the verge of extinction and they need compatible women*
Mating Bonds
Educated in the arts of female pleasure
Earth ladies teaching other species the joys of kissing

PLUS - this one also had the good ol' marriage of convenience and grumpy/sunshine tropes.

The audiobook for this is EXCELLENT.
