This is the second book in the Spicy Romantasy Fairy Tales series and is a quick and interesting Retelling of Beauty and the Beast. I enjoyed this story and the world it was set in and look forward to seeing what other fairy tale retellings this series has in the future.

This book was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed reading about Neptune in this story. It was also nice to learn more about Bo as her and Neptune grew closer throughout the book as well as getting to catch up with Mei and Chiguo from Dating A Music God. I look forward to reading about Thor in the next book Rejecting a Thunder God.

This is my second book by Julie K. Cohen as well as from this series and I enjoyed this one as much as my previous book Whisked Away by the Alien. I liked the characters Kobrik and Kenzie as well as the added Halloween elements in the story and how they confused Kobrik. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series Shadowed by the Alien (also a new Halloween story) as well as backtracking for the Valentines Day book Kissed by the Alien. I also plan to read some of the other books involving Zyanthan Warriors in the future.

I really liked this book by Lynnea Lee and enjoyed the world this book took place in as well as the characters. I thought Cetius & his human mate Vera were interesting characters as well as Cetius' sister Cetia and grandsire Cetion. The epilogue at the end was a nice way to leave off this story.

This was a fun story and I enjoyed getting to know both Blade and Hannah as their story unfolded and the epilogue was really good as well. I would like to see more of these characters in the future and maybe even a story about Blades brother finding a mate.

This was my first book by Olivia Sinclair and I enjoyed getting to know these characters in this age gap story. This story does a decent job of world building but focuses more on the 2 main characters since it isn't a long story. I plan to read more from this series in the future.

This is the first book by Sue Mercury that I have read and I really enjoyed it. Deza was a really good character and was really sweet about how he went about trying to court Annika using human methods after she explained how human courtship usually progressed. I loved him getting her a Christmas tree after she explained it to him. I look forward to reading more of this series and other books by this author in the future.
I really enjoyed the story for Macy and Dakk and learning more about the both of them. The epilogue was really sweet and ending things on a positive note. I look forward to reading Stacy's story next.
I have really enjoyed reading the Vaxxlian Alien Mail Order Brides series and am glad to be able to continue on with these characters lives in the sequel series Vaxxlian Matchmakers.
This was a quick and interesting Retelling of Rumpelstiltskin with some well written characters. I look forward to reading more from this author.
This was an enjoyable and quick Retelling of Swan Lake and I look forward to exploring more of the short fairy tale retellings in this series as well as some of this authors longer fairy tale retellings.
This is the first book I have read by A.G. Marshall and I am glad I came across it. This was a quick and enjoyable Retelling of Cinderella that takes a unique twist. I look forward to reading more from this series as well as checking into other books by this author.
This is a short but well written Retelling of Sleeping Beauty that I enjoyed reading overall. All the characters seemed fairly well developed considering this is a short story with not a lot of time to work with and the background was also filled out enough to draw me into the world.

This was another really fun addition to the Alien Abduction Series and while each book can be read as a standalone I have read the last couple and enjoyed getting to see how Cronan and Unity from Unity and the Usurper were doing. I was really happy to see Wraith get his own story after his very brief scenes in the previous couple books and thought him and Willow made a great couple in this book. Willow was also a really enjoyable character. The young alien girl Sooni and her grandfather were also a nice addition to the story and I liked how everything turned out for all four of these characters. I look forward to reading more from this series and author in the future.

This was the first book in the Fated Mates of the Xilan Warriors series and it does a really good job of introducing the series and the world it will be taking place in as well as the initial characters. The first book is about Lydia and Gorok and I enjoyed seeing how they developed as individuals as well as their relationship. The story rotates points of view from chapter to chapter allowing the reader to get to know them better. The next book in the series "Alien Prince's Bride" will be between Avery and Prince Vikar and I look forward to reading their story.
This was my first book by Jade Waltz and I really enjoyed the story and the characters. I am also looking forward to reading more books from this series and hope the next one comes out soon.
This book is the first book in the Alien Adoption Agency series by Tasha Black and does a good job of introducing the characters and setting up the basic backdrop of the series. I enjoyed reading this book and about the main couple for this book. The bond between baby Sol and Noxx was really cute and I really liked Luna as well. I plan to continue reading this series and look forward to seeing what happens next with Aurora in the next book.
I enjoyed reading this story even though I haven't read the first book in this series and while it did take me a little bit of time in the very beginning of the story to figure out who was who and get into it I think that was more because of the large number of characters involved in the story than that I hadn't read the first book. I enjoyed getting to know all the characters and seeing how the story unfolded as well as all the descriptions about the different characters and magic. I would have liked a little more at the end about how Evanelle adapts once she settles in and seen how her and Kieran's brothers got along. Overall I enjoyed reading this story and plan to look into more of this authors books.
This book was a really fun Retelling of Puss in Boots and I appreciated that the author added a brief summary of the original fairy tale at the beginning because this isn't a fairy tale that I was as familiar with. The characters are all really fun and I enjoyed all the different ways each character interacted with Faye's inherited cat Baldwin. This book is connected with Callie and the Pumpkin Seed: A Cinderella Retelling and all the main characters (except Baldwin) were originally introduced previously so it is more enjoyable to read them together but it could probably work as a standalone as well. I look forward to reading more fairy tale retellings by this author in the future since I have loved each one so far.

I LOVED this Retelling of Cinderella that includes a touch of the Princess and the Pea in the last quarter of the book as well. All the characters were well written and Callie was so sweet and caring. I also loved Prince Everett and all of his jokes and puns throughout the story. This was such a great retelling and I look forward to reading this books companion Faye and the Feline Feat: A Puss in Boots Retelling featuring Callie's friend Faye.
This was my first book by Kenzie Skye and I thought it was an enjoyable retelling of Sleeping Beauty with a lot of details and world building packed into a fairly quick read. I look forward to seeing what Fairy Tale Retellings are added to this series in the future.

This was my first book by Astrid Eliasen and I really enjoyed it. The characters were well written and it was fun seeing the human expressions and and activities through Kulfirth and how he misunderstood them. I plan to read more of these books in the future particularly the two previous books in the "Alien Love Encounters" series that were written by this author that center on Bridget's friend and sister.

This was another great book in the Monster Mercenary Mates Series and I really enjoyed getting to know Mitnick better as well as his human mate Harper.

This was the first Retelling of Swan Lake that I have read and it was a really entertaining story full of wonderful and complex characters. I look forward to reading more from this series as well as looking into what other books this author has written.
This was a really interesting retelling of "Red Riding Hood" and while it does have some scenes that were a little darker than my usual preference that isn't really surprising when reading a book based on "Red Riding Hood" and the rest of the book was good enough to make those scenes worth it. I enjoyed reading about both Rosa & Sir Chase and was glad to read Sir Chase' story after having read about him in a few other books from this series.
