Emotionless
This story was about sex with a few menial actions in between. It was emotionless and the main characters were 2D. The secondary characters who have appeared in other books did not really add much to the story.

Skipped Book 3, but Book 4 continues the narrative well!
It was really interesting to get to see a mated couple up close.
It gave some idea what the 'happily ever after' might be like, and getting a glimpse into how the new mates are getting on with their human in-laws, was halarious.
A new alliance, a hint of a thickening plot and the pitter patter of tiny feet, readable and amusing.
My last note would be I appreciate Dianne giving us an option to skip Book 3. Trio's or in fact menage of any kind is usually when I stop reading a seris. It's just not my thing. So being able to contiue the general story arc, meant I came back for more.

Honeymon
I am enjoying this series about the collaboration between humans and one species of aliens. I love the pop culture references to movies and slang. The two groups are working together as the aliens' women were killed by a virus unleashed by the evil queen of another species of alien. Human women have volunteered to be brides of the aliens in return for aide combatting cancer.

Good Story, But Slow at Points
Overall, the story was good, but it did drags at points. There were a number of scenes that really didn't need to be in the book, and I found myself skimming these sections to get to something interesting. Of all the books in the Saving Ceraste series, I enjoyed this one the least. Still, I can't wait to read the next book in the series!

Good sci fi romance
Although this book has a lot of sex (the title is Honeymoon), the story is interesting, and the new character is fascinating. The world building remains excellent, and the book is well-written.

Interesting, but not particularly funny.
I'm interested in these characters, but I was really pulled in by the first books humor. I will probably finish the series. It is well written, good characters & interesting. I miss the hilarity.

Entertaining
Wow, Laney's adventure L'Ark was very interesting. Their story was very sweet, but the overall story with the threat of war keeps you reading also. Definitely recommend the series so far.

Great book
Why amazon insist on 20 words for a review I'll never understand. Especially when I just want to say I enjoyed this book.

Facebooks truly are one of my favorite wish. The rest of the books were done in human narration.

One of the best alien romances I have.enjoyed.
I started with the first book and was caught by the story and wanted more. I have read the books one after another. I was looking forward to Number 5. I hope it comes out soon. If you like romance and you like sexy aliens these are the books for you. I loved that there was no abductions, that.the women are there because they want to be. There is romance, adventure and love that lasts forever.

Series continues to please!
As an avid reader who doesn't normally ready alien romance books I have really liked this series. Dane writes chemistry so well and the heroes of her stories are so great to their mates and their "otherness" is so cool to read in comparison to the human heroines. These guys love their mates and it shows!! Can't wait to read more into this world!

An adventurous honeymoon
The story was good an the characters were very engaging but I felt that the storyline could've been developed a little bit better. The characters of Princess Ameela was good but not developed enough. This was a missed opportunity. I felt that with a little more work it could've been a great story.

I loved this book!
I loved this book. It's witty and touching in all the right "feels". As an avid reader this book hits all my criteria for a great read. Maya is so relatable. D'Avii is just a giant marshmallow in a very large casing. I will be buying the rest of the books in the series

Very Enjoyable Reading!
I loved reading about the volunteer brides and their mates loved after being mated. Good plot that keeps readers interested in what will happen next! The weddings and honeymoon for the mated couples was fun to read. Great to see how their relationships evolve as they learn more about each other.

Enjoyable read
I have read all 4 in this collection and enjoyed each one. This was a new author for me, that has created a Well paced story with enjoyable characters. They all have an on going story that develops with each book. Each book covers a different couple.

The Bride Program Honeymoon
The Bride Program series is a fun read. The characters are engaging and the idea of human brides for alien men, while not new, has been handled deftly in a unique way. I highly recommend.

Love and need more!
Obligatory I am not Matt but his wife. I love these books and could not stop reading! I am hopeful there will be more books coming in this awesome series soon. Also thank you for the colorful phrases, several will no doubt be adopted I to my own vocabulary.
