Desired by the Alien Prince
The man looks just like her boss, but he insists that his name is Odin and that he needs her back in his world. He needs to mate with her because he needs an Earth woman to replenish his planet. Much to her dismay, her curiosity trumps her rationale.
Odin grasps her shoulders and gently pulls her against him. His lips inch close to hers, giving her time to stop him, but she has no in-tention of doing so. They are in his world now, and she wants to taste all of him.
Their lips finally meet, and Melanie melts against him, unable to do anything but submit.
As they leave Earth behind, Melanie realizes that her life will never be the same. If she is in a coma, she wants to live out this dream, yet she looks forward to what awaits her on Cardonia.

Read original review at http://www.chantolaspinall.com
If you knew me at all, 8 o’clock wouldn’t catch me in bed unless I was cuddled up with a good book. Chores done, well fed, I was in the mood for some good reading. With Desired by an Alien Prince on my laptop screen, I was ready and hella willing to spend hours consuming the book. I started, my smile stretched a mile long and in under an hour my reading ended. No, not because I fell asleep or because I was summoned to a family meeting. No my good people, it was because the book had ended. Literally ended, final word, full stop.
Okay, let me walk you through this short read. Melanie/ Miranda Collier, I couldn’t tell for certain the actual name of the protagonist and apparently, neither could the author. The story introduced her as Melanie and if my count was on point and memory served well, she became Miranda two or three times during the read. Very confusing, but out of the kindness of my heart I allowed that error to slide.
Melanie works for a Jared Scott as his administrative assistant. The fellow who lost his wife of three years to a car accident has not reported to work. He has disappeared without the courtesy of leaving a note to confirm his wellbeing. Like a good and caring employee, Melanie doesn’t pick up the phone to check on him or stop by his home. Nope, she does the honorable thing and assumes his role as boss. Thursday she was greeted by the message he left her on her answering machine. His voice hoarse, he explained that he was sick, laryngitis had him singing the blues. Still no concrete reason to check on him, she continues to run his company for the remainder of the week.
Unwinding nicely at her dead parents’ lake house, a vision hits her. A burn mark on Jared’s neck showed up in her psyche. This was all the motivation she needed to pick up her butt and plant it into her car and drive to his house. However, she never gets there. A minor road accident left her head in a daze. I mean real daze. The girl imagined herself being rescued by a knight in shining armor, riding a white horse.
Who is this knight you ask? Jared Scott? Looks can be very deceiving. Her knight in armor is a Jared Scott look alike. His real name, Odin of Cartonia. He is an alien prince who has come to mate with Melanie or Miranda Collier. Whoever. The protagonist. In an effort to unite his planet and Earth. This is no dream. This is her reality. I thought I had witnessed enough insta-romance but this one beats them all by a mile and some. Did you know it only takes an alien prince who knows nothing about love eight days to fall in love with a human, and impregnate her with his heir? Hey, you learn something new every day.
Everything in my opinion happened too fast and the protagonist was way too accepting of such life changing events. I know fiction isn’t one hundred percent reality but there must be some levels of believability. But maybe I just don’t understand the order of things on planet Cartonia. Perhaps I’m the once suffering from ignorance. Take a read and tell me how you enjoyed this story. Happy Reading!

The smut was good in this, but I wish it had been longer. I wanted to know more about Melanie's new life on Cartonia.

Like a bad dream, everything happens too fast and many things go no further. And the idea of taking on a body near death. Ew!

Sadly, not good. The storyline was really odd and the writing was badly edited for the genre as well as not making much sense.

Try reading before publication
The story was fine but unfortunately it was mostly sex. It should have been a bit longer so that wasn't as rushed. Also the main character's name was different for part of the story. That's something I can't really get over.

Not impressed
It was a very shirt read with no substance or real body to the story. It was like a minute in a fantasy dream... I doubt I will read more by this author. More could have been done with this for sure.

I'm going to sum up this book in four words. Are you ready?
1. What
2. The
3. Actual
4. Fuck
I love a bit of alien smut. It's a genre that's almost always hilarious, intentionally or not. Unfortunately, I'm running low on the freebies and I definitely scraped the barrel with this one. Because, really, what the actual fuck did I just read?
Fourty four tiny pages and we crammed in:
And quite a lot of other things besides.
1.5 stars because, oddities aside, thank God or whoever for an author that has a decent vocabulary and knows how to use the past perfect!

Oh Dear..
I am not usually a blunt person but this book is not very good. The premise of the story is an alien comes to earth and wants our heroine to love him. He is from many light years away and he is a prince who rules his planet. This book has been written by someone who through the structure of the chapters actually sounds like a twelve year old. The sentences are cut short and it reminds me of being in junior school!
All in all a waste of time and effort from the author through everyone else to the end user, the reader.
In two words, "don't bother!
Please note that I would not have given this collection of pages any stars at all but I couldn't leave the review without just the one. In all honesty if I could have left a negative "star" then I would have. Very Disappointed!!

Alien Prince...
I'm sure this author is good, I've never heard of her until I came across this in search for more extraterrestrial romance stories. However, I could not stick with the book. I wasn't feeling it after Melanie's botched abduction that the alien Prince had to save her from only to abduct her to his world, lol. It may have been my mood for the night reading this or the storyline wasn't it for me. I just couldn't get past chapter 7. I did give this book 3 cups of cooled java, ☕☕☕, for the effort and like I said maybe it's me mood or the storyline isn't working for me.

I really hate leaving low stars for a book but really this was bad. Given 2 stars because the writing style was actually good and flowed nicely but the content! There were a few things that bothered me about this but one was that the planet name changed from Cartonia to Cardonia and then back again but the main ick factor was that the MC offered the female character his sisters body to live in. Considering he did say she could survive his planet in her own body and also he said her memories would disappear and would take on those of the host body, it seems he would then marry her and make babies with her and it seems a bit incestuous really. Not really for me

I am not sure how I feel about this book. I liked the idea that the book summary presented but I am not sure it met my expectations. It was well written but fast-paced, which made the plot way to fast in its development of the characters relationship and setting. I thinks I would have liked for longer and more in-depth plot. One that would have made the story more descriptive and the characters more detailed and profound.

Short and cute
Quick short romance. It really does move fast. And I like the clarity to downsize the confusion. Melanie is as administrative assistant to her boss Jared but a Jared-Imposter arrives to confuse and seduce her. There was a couple places where Miranda shows up but it was a typo for Melanie.

This was too short and suffered from some editing problems. There is potential here but I really didn't feel the connection between the characters. Melanie, for a competent woman taking over for her boss, doesn't act that way so much with regards to her reactions of going to look in on her boss or the way she acts towards this alien. It needs some editing and some more development.

Recommend this quick alien read 👽
This was a nice little short story. Just enough plot to make it an interesting and spicy read. I love when the alien/monster/naive man learns what his mate likes and does that. I will say that I didn’t love the descriptive words used during the spicy scenes, but that’s just on preference.

Alien Romance by Ava Acitore
Way too short to be enjoyable for it was over before you knew it. It was wham bam and done,doesn't leave you with a feeling there was much build up to the characters and their storylines.😞😒😟

So-So
A quick read for sure. Feels a bit more like only being given access to the first quarter of a book. I liked more than I disliked on this one, but not by much. It’s fair for a free book, and works great as a quick gym or bedtime read.

Yes and omg.
I know it's supposed to be a short story but I want I to be longer! I need more of this! I know even know at this point if there is more books. It was weird but good and I'm interested in this other world.

A slightly creepy "Alien" romance novel with a difference... Body snatchers comes to mind... I found for me the novel ended too quick, and it also leaves you on a cliff hanger! So very bad, should of been a standalone..

Not bad
The switching bodies bit was confusing and I dont get why he offered her a new body when it was fine 2 use her own. Might just be me but using someone elses body gives me the hebbie jebbies.

Meh.
Many parts were confusing as to what was occurring. They would often be later explained but it did not make the outcome satisfactory anyway. I generally also disliked the characters.

This book was awful I read the whole thing and it was short, the story went nowhere, the writing was awful and there was no build. Everything just falls into place, no resistance. Oh my friend died let me just fuck an alien who abducted me and then magically love this alien two seconds later. Terrible I don’t even understand why this book is on any platform I have read better more articulate work on Wattpad. Save your time and do not read this book.

This is a great short read. Ava gave real descriptions that I could vision and be able to feel the story.

Not that great
Too short, not enough background and just not that great.
I was hoping for much more but it just never took off.
