About this listen

Mandy is abducted by aliens and kept as a pet.

These aliens seem nice enough, but she needs to figure out how to communicate with them and get back to Earth. Her alien captor finds everything about his new pet adorable, from her tiny toes to her blunted claws to her shiny mane. He will do everything in his power to make sure that his cute little pet remains healthy and happy. But what happens when this giant tentacled alien finds out his lovely pet is a sentient person who wants more from him than pets and treats?

This is a slow-burn alien/human romance intended for adult listeners.

basically tentacle porn with an interesting scifi

I liked the premise but the tentacle scenes were a bit over the top. there was plenty of scope to make this a wonderful story. I'm in two minds if to get the next book.

Better than it had any right to be

I'm floored. I never expected this to be so good. I'm not kidding with those 5 stars.

The FMC is strong, not stupid, and makes the best of a bonkers situation.
The alien that adopts her thinks she's the cutest thing in the world and is big time embarrassed when he finds out she's not a pet. I loved the FMC and all the characters were lovable. I literally laughed out loud. The aliens are just genuinely good guys and the MMC is a giant tentacle having cinnamon roll. Also, it has a nuanced understanding of sex and gender AND a plus size FMC!

I'm new to alien romance and it was a perfect, hilarious introduction.

Excellent performance. It was easy to tell who was speaking and the FMC never sounded whiny or annoying.

Mild Spoiler:
Breeding kink! It does end in pregnancy, but for a hilarious reason.

Way better than the title suggests

This was a very fun and comical story. I initially cringed at the title, but decided to embrace it and was not disappointed.

I'm conflicted but still recommend it

So my expectations were more of the 'Tempted by Tentacles' erotica type story (highly recommend that ebook for those interested). This book is not erotica at all and what sex is in it is very brief in both length and description. Plus it isn't so much a romance either. There is a lot of world building which is great, but again, it sort of overshadowed the relationship part.

Honestly, my favorite characters aren't even the main couple. Mandy and Seven were both too stupid to live, which is unironically stated by Baht. In fact, I love Baht and I'm thrilled to know his book (3rd in series) is available on Kindle.

I think the series has potential and at a minimum I'm going to read Baht's story. The universe Bebe Harper created is unique and while there is a lot of borrowing from other popular sci-fi, it isn't a carbon copy. I do recommend this book, but just go in knowing it is more of a foundation storyline than a romance.

No

This book is super hard for me to review. I think Ann Aguirre set too high of a standard for alien romance, or maybe I'm too picky. The story didn't flow, some things were too detailed, others didn't have enough details, Mandy and Seven were meh and Baht was super intriguing even though his main role was deus ex machina.

And the misspellings didn't help. How hard is it to google words - or look into paper dictionaries - to figure out that a huge building is not hanger but hangar, it's not infinate but infinite, and if you hit someone so hard they lose consciousness, they are knocked out, not nocked out.
