About this listen
The portals take....
So I forgot to update my phone. Big deal. Only there’s a glitch and an app opens a portal to another planet! Because that makes sense.
Now I’m stuck on an alien planet with a grumpy prince. His eyes turn black when he’s upset. He can manipulate the shadows and grow a pair of massive, inky wings. I mean, sure, he’s hot, and he saved me from a pack of monsters, but I don’t trust anything about this place, let alone a surly alien.
I’m going to find a way home.
The portals give....
Fate delivered this odd, soft female to me. The royal mark is inked into her skin. She is meant for greatness. Then why did I, the half-blind prince, find her?
Now that I have her, I refuse to let her go. She is my fate, my mate, and my destiny.

Story
As the first humans allowed in Suevan space, there’s a lot riding on my all-woman team. Earth desperately needs their tech, and I’m determined to prove we can negotiate the price. Without their planetary defense systems, Earth is a sitting duck, ripe for invasion. Except the Suevan culture is nothing like ours. When I take part in what I think is a welcoming ceremony, I leave with more than I bargained for: a husband. A mate. Apparently, we’re there to marry them as payment—something the top brass on Earth doesn’t bother denying. Fantastic.

Captured, starved, and blinded, Tas hates humans. For 80 agonizing years, he’s plotted his vengeance. Then one day, his captors make a fatal mistake. When the door to his cage opens, he’s ready to destroy the human on the other side. But a different instinct takes over when he scents the female. His fangs ache, demanding he make the fearless female his. Juniper owes a lot of money to a very bad man. To clear her debt, all she has to do is drive a van and not ask questions. When she hears a voice in the back, she finds a gargoyle…who intends to claim her as his mate.

Story
Paax never wanted to be matched to a mate. The situation in his clan was dangerous for a hardened warrior, let alone a soft human female without fangs or claws to defend herself. Sending her back to Earth was the only way to keep her safe. However, the moment the curvaceous woman stepped off the transporter, his tattoo burned with a passionate intensity he’d never experienced before. Paax knew he would do anything to protect her, to claim her, even challenge the clan’s violent Warlord. No force in the universe would take his mate from him.

As a third daughter on the farming colony of Meterion, Susan’s future prospects aren’t too promising. A pretty face, top-notch skills, and hard work mean nothing if your dowry doesn’t include fertile lands. With her 25th birthday approaching, and no suitors, her only way out is to settle for an arranged marriage through the PMA - the Prime Mating Agency. She just never expected to be paired with a grumpy, massive lizardman, and above all not to grow so fond of his scales and quirky ways.

He applies to Celestial Mates, willing to take the first available female, even a flat-faced, ugly human. What he gets is a woman whose mind challenges him and whose patience humbles him.

I signed up for a research mission with five other women. Instead, we crashed on an alien planet with too many dangers to count. Separated from the other women, I’m on my own until a huge alien with color-changing skin and a massive sword gets me out of a bad spot. I don’t understand Savair’s language, but I think he’s under the impression that I’m his. I am NOT his. I’m a 34-year old divorced scientist with no time for such nonsense. But if he can help me find the others in my group then perhaps I can play at being “his” for a while.

Two years ago, the aliens made contact. Now Cara Sweeney is going to be sharing a bathroom with one of them. Handpicked to host the first-ever L'eihr exchange student, Cara thinks her future is set. Not only does she get a free ride to her dream college, she'll have inside information about the mysterious L'eihrs that every journalist would kill for. Cara's blog following is about to skyrocket. Still, Cara isn't sure what to think when she meets Aelyx. Humans and L'eihrs have nearly identical DNA, but cold, infuriatingly brilliant Aelyx couldn't seem more alien.

Love the snark and the love
I really enjoyed this first book and I really hope to see more of the series. The epilogue seems to have set it up so onward with Donna’s story. Because sexy farmers are awesome!

I want more of this world
This series has multiple authors and each is a standalone other than them sharing the initial event that transports millions of humans into random places in the universe. This story is the kickoff to the series and is great. I love the characters and the planet/kingdom building that was the focus for this standalone. This is why I was a bit disappointed to find out that these aliens are a one and done. I was so hoping for the next story to be about the MMC's brother getting a HEA. I so hope that Nancy Cummings does a spinoff series with these aliens and their journey for peace.
As for the narrator, I thought he was great with Taken for Granite book (highly recommend as yet another great standalone by Nancy), but this time his narration at the start was very stiff and it was hard to tell the brothers apart. By chapter 4 his narration greatly improved and I enjoyed the rest of the story.

Wow
So freaking good! Loved both of the MCs. The relationship felt genuine. The MMC was so sweet. I’m a big fan of grumpy and sunshine and this hit the spot!

cute tale
the story is sweet and almost a parody of sci-fi romance tropes. it took me some time to get into it bc I, personally, found the narrator's high pitched voice distracting. however, the story eventually won me over. it's very cute and mildly spicy w/a hea.
