Celestial Sins

Falling Star #1

by Chloe Parker, Clarissa Bright

Aliens took me from my life as a high society princess. My body is my only bargaining chip, and my pleasure their currency.

When I sat on the rooftop and wished every night that someone would take me away, this isn’t what I meant. Now my biggest problems--my stepmom, my dad’s expectations--are dwarfed in comparison to my new life.

An alien with tentacles and a tail wants to make me his wife. Not just his wife--his queen.

And if I give in to my body’s desires, I would also be giving up everything I’ve ever fought for.

But he’s not the only one that wants me. There are his two bodyguards, both with broad shoulders, big muscles, and blazing eyes. They share everything, and I don’t know if that includes me.

There’s the ship’s pilot, a human cyborg with skilled hands and a heart of gold.

And of course, there’s the assassin chasing us across the galaxy, who seems to be everywhere at once.

These men will kill me. Or they will drive me mad with pleasure. Until Earth seems just as alien as they are--and I have to decide where home actually is.

CELESTIAL SINS is a reverse harem science fantasy with a diverse group of sexy alien heroes and a strong heroine. Fans of Clarissa Bright’s RH novels and Chloe Parker’s alien romances will love this journey to another galaxy.

Trigger: Cliffhanger
*****
Celestial Sins is a reverse harem with some very light MM. (Only tongues cross, there is NO sword crossing, which was disappointing considering there were TENTACLES and a CYBORG…so much POTENTIAL for hotness)

Fiona, a Governor’s daughter, trapped in a life where she doesn’t feel like she belongs...sends out an SOS call to outerspace wishing someone could save her. What she doesn’t realize is that someone is about to hear her distress and they are coming to save her… oopsie Fiona is going to be in trouble.

Prince Nereus, Kye, Taln and Ryker are coming to the rescue! They will save Princess Fiona from her pitiful existence on Earth… and make her a Queen! One problem, Fiona didn’t expect anyone to hear her, or rescue her, or make her a Queen…. Uh Oh…

Our MMCs are Prince Nereus, of the Merati (read TENTACLES) has lost his kingdom to his evil stepmother Lamia, Kye, the human pilot that was injured and is now more machine than man, Taln and Ryker, brothers and Prince Nereus’ guards.

Celestial Sins was an interesting and engaging Sci-Fi Romance that kept me turning the pages, with all the fixings leading us up to an epic battle between Prince Nereus and the Evil Queen Lamia. I look forward to seeing where the story will lead and I will continue reading.

A Rocky Start...

*May contain slight spoilers*

So I have loved everything I have read so far from Chloe Parker. I was super excited to get this ARC for an alien reverse harem, where one of the aliens had tentacles!! 🤪🐙 That being said this definitely had a rocky start, which tempered my ability to really get into the story moving forward.

My biggest problem: Fiona.

Fiona was the daughter of the Georgia Governor who couldn't stand the "expectations" placed on her as a society darling, and sends out S.O.S. calls over radio for someone to come rescue her. Well, she gets her wish, when Prince Nereus and his crew sweep in and abduct/rescue her. Do you think that made her happy? No, no it did not.

Fiona was a complete brat. She acted like a petulant child one moment then a crazy nymphomaniac the next. My biggest problem came from there really not having a realistic arc to her feelings. One moment she's scared, angry and defiant, yet so turned on and wanting to sleep with the guys, any of the guys, even though she's only just met them. Even though she doesn't want to stay and be in a relationship with any of them.

It was very disconnected and abrupt. In fact I was shocked when she ended up sleeping with Nereus because she had been nothing but nasty to him. Even making sure to tell him to his face she couldn't ever see herself wanting to be with him. Fiona's actions were just so contradictory, with nothing happening in between to give plausibility to them, it made it hard for me to relate and get invested in her and in her relationships with the guys. She was just so immature.

Though to be honest, Prince Nereus and Kye, weren't much better. Prince Nereus had to flee and escape from Homeworld. He has to get married so with his queen he can lay claim to his rightful throne; overthrowing his evil stepmother before she can extract all the elixir and kill the planet. Nereus is an unlikeable, insecure snob who likes to remind everyone he's in charge. Kye is Nereus's pilot, who owes Nereus for saving his life. But Kye is so jealous. He figures if he can't have Fiona no one else should either, and tries to sabotage their relationships just when everything's starting to go well.

The only characters that were decent were the two Skoll brothers, Taln and Ryker, and interestingly enough Orion, the assassin sent to kill Fiona. Unfortunately, Taln and Ryker mostly get relegated as side notes, portrayed almost as just the muscle following Nereus's orders. Including what involvement they can have with Fiona. Orion, when he comes to kill Fiona, is so attracted to her he struggles to follow through. Fiona, in another crazy reaction that makes no sense, is so turned on by the assassin about to kill her she thinks it might be best to leave all the other men and run away with the assassin. Orion has the most sense and sends her back to her men, though something is definitely brewing between them.

I liked the underlying story, a Snow White retelling, with the super powered evil stepmom trying to take out the competition. I also love crazy aliens, especially a little tentacle action. This is also right up my alley being pretty smutty, but with weird out of the blue MM action. I don't mind MM it's just this didn't really seem likely nor did Fiona's reaction to it ring true. Things did start to smooth out towards the end with Fiona and the guys, so hopefully things will keep getting better in the next one. The cliffy ending really threw a new monkey wrench into the mix, which makes me want to see what happens next.

Even though this is an ARC review, I will always shoot you straight. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

🖤 “Even if she hasn’t taken on the mantle, she is already our queen.”

What happens when two amazing authors combine forces? This book!

Fiona is one fiery woman! She’s brave, spirited, fearless, defiant and quite reckless. I loved how feisty she is and at the same time she was willing to take responsibility for her actions and sacrifice herself for the people she cares about.

And it definitely takes more than one male to manage such force of a female!

The guys were amazing and I really loved them. Each of them was a unique character with his own strengths and weaknesses. All of them were fierce, strong, protective and together they were an amazing team.

The development of their relationship was fantastic. It was such fun reading how Fiona affected them all and I loved how she challenged Nereus and drove him crazy. And their scorching hot romance was soooo good!

I think that this story would please even the most demanding SFR reader.
✓ You want an alien prince with tentacles? You got one!
✓ Space vikings with antlers? Yup, and they are so naughty!
✓ A cyborg with an amazing personality? Of course! And the things he can do with his vibrating fingers...
✓ A reptilian-looking hunter? Yep, there is one! And I wonder how he will fit in the overall story in the future...
✓ A sizzling hot romance with a dash of MM action just to spice things up? Yes, please!

Overall, the story is magnificent! It has action, danger, drama, adventure, steamy romance and great characters.

I absolutely loved every page of it and cannot wait to see what happens next!

This was an exciting read, because you know I love RH books especially with a sci-fi twist. Fiona is desperate to escape her life on earth and when she calls out to the universe it answers but not the way she was expecting it to. Four men answer her call, can she keep up?

[Toubob · Rating 2 out of 5]

The FMC dislikes one of the men but for no apparent reason. She is horrible, obnoxious, over dramatic to everyone while also thirsty for everyone. She abruptly changes to liking loving everyone. No reason for why she changed her mind about anyone. But it didn’t matter whether she liked the person or not, she was willing to give it a go even if one of them men was actively trying to kill her.

14%

I made it to 14% before throwing in the towel. A human woman, 21yrs old, sends signals out on a ham radio asking to be taken away. A runaway prince, his 2 guards and a human cyborg (although they seem mostly prosthetic not any kind of enhancement) hear her, bring her aboard and she calls them monsters. Huh? The prince is in contention for the throne with his stepmom who is ravaging the region (maybe planet? not really clear) of something called nectar. Also not explained. She has mind reading abilities through touch. Anyway, prince and crew have been gone 5yrs, which makes you wonder if the planet he abandoned to his stepmom, that was supposedly in already dire straights, would be able to recover after all that time. So she's rescued from being rich and possibly being forced to choose a rich husband, because she asked to be, by a crew on an outdated ship. She goes from calling them all monsters, even the human, to holding the cyborg's hand on the way to dinner and then getting hot and heavy over the 2 guards she maligned. The prince goes from an internal monologue claiming she's his alone, to instigating the guards to pawing her, to telling them to back off she's his. Then we go back to the castle on his homeworld where his stepmom is arranging a hit on his newly acquired human. Complete with a picture of her. Is the ship bugged? Her powers require touch, so that it isn't it. But how does she have a picture of someone who hasn't even been aboard the ship a handful of hours? And that's when I gave up. It's so fractured. Events and actions aren't matching up. She calls them monsters but then says they're the kinds of guys she was gaga over on Earth? How can they abandon a desperate planet to a ruthless despot for 5yrs? If the stepmom knew about him planning to leave why didn't she blow up the ship? She already claimed he was staging to overthrow her. Tacking on a sidenote about running away on a faulty old ship would be nothing. What kind of plan of succession does this monarchy have that a spouse can rule before the adult son of the former king? The cyborg crashed there after some incident involving a wormhole. She thinks space travel is still rudimentary, because she's fascinated by gravity on the ship. If so, how did a human have a ship advanced enough to get out to a wormhole?
The idea for the basis of the story is interesting enough. Prince needs bride to ensure his ascension to the throne. Ok. Apparently no one is good enough on his own planet, which makes you wonder about the populace he wants to save. Or, a supposedly advanced race has a severe class bigotry in place that means he can't marry anyone not royal. Which she's not, so another plot hole. It needs a combing over, a little plot harnessing, a lot of fleshing out, and some bonding moments with the characters themselves as well as them with each other so we seem them as actual beings before trying to make the steam happen.

Shopping for a Queen . . .

Wanting to be taken away from her boring life, wanting no responsibilities at all, Fiona is desperate to be “rescued” from the monotony, so she sends out her message on a little HAM radio into space. Lucky for her (well, maybe not), her plea is heard and some aliens come to take her away from all of this {sigh} “hardship” she has had to endure. She is lifted into the air from the roof, and huge guys with antlers chase her down the hall and runs into the chest of what she thinks is human… except it has metal and appears like a machine man. She runs and falls into a pool, seeing a guy at the other end. This one has tentacles from the waist down and gills along his abdomen!

Nereus is a prince of Merati who just barely got away from his evil stepmother Lamia and is looking to find a female to marry so he can take the rule away from his stepmother. He stole an old ship and a small crew consisting of a cyborg pilot and two Skoll bodyguards. They respond to Fiona’s plea for help. That starts their journey with all kinds of troubles to deal with. With Fiona being the only female, the reader can guess the first issue that comes up among the four alien men. How will they work this out? Will Nereus take Fiona back to his planet and expect her to help overthrow the evil stepmother whose actions are siphoning life from Homeworld, his home planet? She had begged to be rescued, but she didn’t want to have to then do anything stressful. What if she isn’t suited to this new life?

I can’t say this is a pleasant “rescue” mission. After the 5-year journey to Earth, everyone on the ship is getting on each other’s nerves. They are rescuing Fiona who is bored out of her mind as well. I felt like adding a groan or two to express my own misery. Can this motley crew get Fiona back to their planet? Can they somehow save their world from Lamia? Grab your copy and see what’s in store for them.

[Carol Rupprecht · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was the first book that I've read by either of these authors, although I've heard about Bright through RH groups. Despite not reading them before, I think these two are a pretty great team when they write together.

I don't read a lot of sci-fi books, but I really enjoyed the variety that was provided within the harem because of the sci-fi aspect. I sometimes feel that with contemporary books, you mainly get basic characteristics with the common stereotypical personalities of the funny one, the bad boy, etc, so I appreciated how different each male character was in this book.

The FMC, Fiona, confused me at different times throughout the book. I feel like she changed her mind too easily for things she was fighting against just a few moments before. However, I did enjoy her determination to learn to fight in order to protect herself and how she eventually put the feelings and views of others into perspective. I do think that once she puts her mind to it, she will make a great queen along Nereus' side.

At first I thought this book was a standalone and was like, oh no, how is this book possibly going to end with everything that needs to be done, but luckily, when the ending came, I was happy to know that I would get more of these characters and the future battle they must face. What I hope to see in the next book is some better communication since it was severely lacking in this book, but different species, different values, so I can understand that. I also look forward to more background on all of the characters, Orion included, and for them to actually get to know each other outside of the bedroom...or dining room...or pool. I want some real connections between these characters and I have high hopes that they will reach that level in their relationship now that some feelings have been expressed.

I look forward to reading about what is in store for this group in the next book, especially after that cliffhanger in the epilogue.

Hello 🌿

When Chloe reached out to me about her RH alien romance that she co-wrote with Clarissa Bright (that’s right! the boss b** who birthed Taming Justice) I was immediately sold. Especially since everybody else is freaking about those books about aliens that are barbaric and cold… I guess or something—and so since everyone was going right, I went left by supporting another indie book. And to makes things better? This space adventure has an original twist and a hell of a lot better titel: Celestial Sins 👽

What I found refreshing—aside from the fact that it’s an intergalactic reverse harem—is that there’s tension in the group dynamic as one of the, say participants, is feeling jealous and wants to make a claim. In all the RH novels I’ve read so far that was not a concern and I think that it really added to this story particularly.

And holy Skoll—the power play during the feast scene? Not only is this a reverse harem, it’s a f** 0rgy with a heavy biromantic undertone 🥵

I’m won’t lie and say that alien seggs is something I’m into by default but I do love to let myself indulge in a fantasy in the safety of my own mind and this book delivered 😩🌶

I’ll be honest and say that it isn’t the best book out there—it was too fast paced for my liking and some scenes were a bit on the simple side—but hey what do I know? I couldn’t write something like this if my life depended on it. I also don’t want to give too much away about the actual content of this alien fantasy because if you do decide to read this I want you to decide for yourself if like it or not—all I can say is that I am *really* curious to book number two 👀

Please note that I received an advance copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. This will help ensure that every review gets posted to Amazon, which is essential for indie writers—and I’m happy to contribute!

[The_CozyMomChronicles · Rating 3 out of 5]

Well, color me abducted — Celestial Sins was my first dive into Chloe Parker and Clarissa Bright’s work, and let’s just say… the spice level came in like a meteor shower. Hot. Filthy. Relentless. There’s no shortage of scenes that will get your blood pressure rising (in the best kind of way).

The story follows Fiona, a high-society Earth girl who finds herself kidnapped by aliens and swept into a web of complicated suitors. There’s Prince Nereus, looking for a queen; his two fiercely loyal bodyguards, Taln and Ryker; Kye, the broody cyborg pilot; and Orion, the assassin who may or may not want to stab her… depending on the day.

The romance is front and center — if you’re looking for slow-burn world-building or epic adventure, you’re probably going to feel a little teased and a lot unsatisfied. They talk about this big intergalactic world, about power struggles and politics and danger, but it never really fleshes out past a couple brief encounters and a few passing comments. Most of the story stays laser-focused on the relationships (and the very detailed ways they, ahem, get to know each other).

Honestly, I would’ve loved more plot meat to chew on. The ingredients for a really expansive universe are there — they just needed to cook it longer instead of serving it half-baked.

That said, even with my craving for more adventure left a little hungry, I somehow still want to read the next one. Maybe it’s the cliffhanger. Maybe it’s the hope that book two will deliver more story alongside all that heat. Either way, I’m curious enough to stick around (and not just for the “quality bonding time”).

Rating: ★★★☆☆ (3/5)

If you’re in the mood for some unapologetic, dirty space romance with a side of “Hey, maybe we’ll get to the actual plot later,” Celestial Sins absolutely delivers.

▷👾 Creature feature/ Monsters who look like monsters/Interspecies. Tentacles. Scales. Horns. Cyborgs.

▷ Will this be living rent free in my head for a while? Yes. Have I pre-ordered the second book already? Duh. Am I actually very skeptical of both tentacles and Sci-Fi but still living for this? Absolutely.

▷Right off the bat we have action happening, and I am high key down for an in media res situation because I don't like to be walked through everything, before the action starts. I really, really fckn loved the way information was passed in a way that wasn't handhold-y like wow I did not realize how refreshing it was until I was reading it. I often see with Sci-fi this tendency to over explain things, but there wasn't any of that here.

▷I'd like to point out here that there is so much to be said for the actual sharing of this throuple (within the harem) because it was ugh *KISS* I so rarely get to see genuine relationships building between the men, often times imo it appears fetishy or like they're only partaking in certain acts to please the girl but the sharing during intimate acts was-ugh 10/10 we loved.

Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Celestial Sins by Chloe Parker and Clarissa Bright
🐝
Fiona wished on her rooftop every night to be saved, and whisked away. She didn't think it would really happen, even less that Alien would come to her rescue. A prince with tentacle wants to make her his wife in exchange for saving her, but he's not the only one on this ship to desire her.
🐝
Harem (1 woman, multiple men), Non-human anatomy.
🐝
This one was a fun and quick read. The plot was fun and I liked all the reversal of expectations in the story. I liked that the authors brought forward the "jealousy" issue, because usually it's just not brought up, or shit down very quickly. It definitely isn't my favourite Chloe Parker book, I felt like the romantic connection between the characters was neglected, prioritizing their sexual relationship instead. There was a good foundation, I just wish we would have felt they were in love instead of in-lust. Fiona was a lot to take in to be honest, her character felt somewhat disconnected, she went from mad and angry to horny in the blink of an eye. I felt like she was a little immature. However, I'll definitely continue reading Chloe's book because her Alien books are life, and I hope a tentacle Alien will make it's way into her stories too, because that was fun!
🐝
I want to thank both authors for gifting me an advanced readers copy. As always all thoughts and opinions are honest and my own.

Wow!! Just wow!! What a steamy, sensational read packed with so much excitement, twists, turns, lies and despair! And, so much intimacy and passion for a century to come! Connections were all over the place, fire with every turn of the page, and fervor heat that will leave you yearning for more 😩.

These two authors have managed to write such an intense reverse harem, with such passionate emotions and feelings that I will never be able to look at another RH the same. The intensity of these characters were executed perfectly, touching beautifully on each of their pasts to gain an understanding of their roles.

Though this wasn’t my first sci-fi romance book, it was my first one involving tentacles and can I say HOT!! And, the introduction of a cyborg just added to the intensity of the sexual experience! Nereus had to definitely grow on me as he’s an acquired taste. Kye was such a sweetheart with so much desire bottled up, but Ryker and Taln take the cake with their aggressiveness!!

Definitely a five star recommendation for this amazingly written book! So excited for the upcoming release of Comic Confessions for more steamy 🔥🔥🔥🔥 scenes!!

It was amazing.
It was my first time reading an reverse harem book, and I have to admit, I liked it so muuch, even though I ended up shipping the protagonist with the wrong character 3 The plot and the book are super addicting and creative, never read a romance with aliens before, but I could understand clearly the concept and how it works; If you take a closer look at the novel, you'll notice that it has a type of magic, everything is so creative - I know I'm using this word again but bear with me- and intricated, I fell in love with it; I sincerely thought that me and the protagonist would have beef, but I liked her and Chloe did a good job in building the personality of each character, the POV'S weren't confusing and made the story more clear at each chapter. I lowkey now have crushes on the characters and I don't know how to deal with it, lol. And...about the end...just...OUCH? It was good and painful at the same time. I liked it
I super recommend it, people who will read this will not regret it, feels truly like a Celestial Sin.

Whew! Batten down the hatches and get ready for a sexy thrill ride! Nereus prince of Meraki has escaped from his stepmother's evil rule by stealing an old space ship with a cyborg pilot and two massive Skoll bodyguards. They blast off into space and after five years on the run arrive in Earth's atmosphere where they answer an SOS from a lonely earth girl, Fiona. They rescue her with hopes that she's the answer to their prayers because Nereus is looking for someone to marry him and become queen so he can overthrow his stepmother. Many difficulties and differences arise because plans never work out as they're intended. Fiona is the only female amongst the four males on the ship and sexual tensions rise. This is where I leave you because you'll need to read the rest for yourself. Let me just say it gets really hot from here on out. A definite MUST have if you're into reverse harem or sci-fi romances. You can not go wrong with this book because it has an awesome, original storyline with characters you can't help but fall in love with.

This is the first book in a series. Fiona is living something of a Rapunzel life shut away in a tower. She has an old radio and transmitts a few messages asking anyone out there to save her. She is pretty much an innocent but wow does she learn fast. It is very much a case of learn or cease to be in the Galaxy. Not something she had ever thought of before but since she was "rescued" by aliens..... She's still in shock about that but that doesn't stop her from learning to love the people inside which she is fast doing if only her potential husband-to-be's stepmother would stop sending assassins after her. Nereus was in a tight spot and escaped in order to try and save his people. He had been wandering the galaxies to find a suitable bride when Fiona's messages get to him. He sees the chance he has been waiting for. The thing is he has not the first idea about how to be charming and woo a lady, let alone speak to a proper human. It is something of a comedy of errors and yet he, his pilot, his bodyguards and even the first assassin seem to fall under Fiona's spell. Will her magic last though?

There is nothing more fun and indulgent to me than a good Sci-fi romance and this hit the mark- I was engrossed from the first page with the quick plot and easy to follow world we were introduced to. This is a reverse harem story so it is quick to get to building the physical relationships and emotional needs of the characters, but what I enjoyed most compared to other RH I have read is that there was realistic conflict like jealousy and insecurity woven into the relationship.
The biggest part for me was that the plot took up space that was needed and the story was not just filled with steamy scenes (although there was plenty of those, can we TALK about a good use of tentacles?!)
Can't wait to see where book 2 goes!

What a way to break my sci-fi cherry! This was a great introduction to a genre I've never experienced before. The writing is well done and I really enjoyed the world building, particularly as I needed to use my full imagination to create it.

I also really enjoyed the dynamics between Fiona and her men. Nereus certainly grew on me as the story went on - and his tentacles certainly helped with that 🥵
Kye seems to be the sweetest of the 4 men, maybe because he is able to relate more to Fiona being human.
I don't feel Fiona's relationship with Ryker and Taln is quite established fully yet so I look forward to reading book 2 to see where that goes!

And as for that ending - what are you doing to me?

I've read books by both of these authors before and couldn't resist the opportunity to grab an advance copy of their first co-written book.

This is a sci-fi RH where the aliens look like aliens! Our harem consists of a prince, 2 royal guards and a cyborg pilot.

Fiona is desperate to escape the monotony of her life on Earth and her calls are answered, but not in the way she expects!

I found a couple of the characters quite unlikeable at the start of the book, but their development throughout the story really changed that.

I really enjoyed the first of this series and will defo be giving book number 2 a read. This book does end on a cliffy!

Now when I heard Clarissa was doing an sci fi alien RH I was like wow that’s so opposite from Taming Justice how is this going to go down? Obviously working with Chloe that’s how! This book is certainly (ohhh I’m gonna be cheesy sorry not sorry it has to be done!! 😜) out of this world! 😁 This combined duo of authors bring together something quite fantastic in a rather spicy way. Although very spicy at times (quite a few times actually 🥵) it actually contains emotional connections and a real plot unlike some other sci fi RH I’ve read before which makes a nice change. Characters actually develop throughout the story and you really get a feel for them with multi POV. I definitely look forward to seeing more!

5🌟 I loved this book! Soo good. Celestial Sins is a reverse harem sci-fi romance that is seriously an adventure. Fiona is a great FMC, she’s abducted after sending out radio calls to be saved from her high society life. Nereus is a prince from an alien planet out searching for a woman to make his queen with his body guards and pilot.
While Kye, Ryker, and Taln are are easy to love, Prince Nereus is not. And Fiona really makes him work to win her affections. I loved that. And I also love our antihero Orion and I can’t wait to see how his relationship with Fiona develops in the next book, which I will definitely be reading ASAP!
This book is a must read if you love sfr with inhuman heroes, spicyyyyy sexy times, and intergalactic adventure.

[Taylor Z · Rating 1 out of 5]

1-22% of the book was a senseless, bigoted, nieve female sends a distress signal to outer space, begging to be picked up and saved from her desperate situation of being the daughter of a wealthy governor, and about to be married off to a millionare. What a tough life, right?

Except when aliens actually pick her up, she's a total bitch. She calls them monsters, tell them they made a mistake, won't eat when she's fed, and is argumentative over nothing. So, the Prince, one of the males that decided to save her ungrateful ass, tells her they'll be taking her back. Then she's mad that they want to do exactly what she's asking for.

Then! At 23%, she completely changes and becomes submissive and finds all of them so hot, she has sex with them.

Just skip this, it's awful.

[Shannon · Rating 5 out of 5]

Cyborg that vibrates, two big aliens with antlers, a tentacley mer alien and one human (and a lizard alien that is attracted to her but no steam). WOW. This was so good. Lots and lots of steam. There is a plot. The prince needs to find his queen to get his homeward back. Of course, like stupid men being stupid, he never sits down with Fiona to explain why/what/who. Definitely some growth in the prince by the end of the book. If there is a sequel, I would definitely read it

Oh, there is sword crossing. Or would it be sword/tentacle crossing?

This was a fun read with interesting characters. I immediately disliked the queen, as was the expectation, but I also immediately disliked the female lead. She was a bit too "poor little rich girl" for my liking. She ended up being okay, but not my favorite character. The male characters were interesting, but half of them felt very two-dimensional. I would have liked to see them more fleshed-out. I did enjoy the premise of the book, the world building is good, and the pacing is good as well. It will be interesting to see where the story goes next.

I don’t read many books with aliens but I loved this one! I couldn’t put it down! Contains a little M/M, great mix of aliens and humans. FMC is a virgin. Fiona is a human on earth wanting to be rescued from her gilded cage when 3 aliens and a cyborg pick her up and take her into space. Can they convince her to marry the prince and overthrow his evil stepmom the queen and save their homeworld in time? This is such a great story that end with a cliffhanger and I can’t wait to see what happens in book 2.

Dynamic and Exciting New Series

This book kicks off a new RH series by writing duo Chloe Parker and Clarissa Bright. Fiona is “rescued” from earth by mer Prince Nereus, his human cyborg pilot Kyle, and warrior brothers Ryker and Taln. I found myself absolutely engrossed in the action of this story; there’s the real feel of jumping in the deep end and being absolutely immersed. The ending is an exciting one, stepping things up for more adventures in Cosmic Confessions.

I found this book to be interesting. It has action, drama, romance, a tiny bit of comedy. The mmc has to save his planet and he inadvertently choses a fmc that is both the correct and the incorrect person to choose. Through a series of adventures and misadventures they come to a compromise that they can both live with

She didn't expect to be heard.

Fiona just says to escape from her father's, in her opinion unreasonable expectations. The last thing she expects is her pleas to the universe to be answered by an alien probe and his crew.
Wonderful characters that are well written, compelling, and unique. Exciting action, steamy menage romance, an evil queen, and unexpected twists in the plot kept me reading well past my bedtime. Fantastic!

This is my first science fiction reverse harem but I absolutely loved it. Action packed and exciting with hot aliens and very steamy scenes. The heat between the characters was intense and I loved it had MMF and MFM as well as tentacles. Great fun to read and I'm looking forward to the next book.
