Thursday Book Recommendation
These are books I’ve read and really enjoyed. Most of what I talk about will probably be paranormal/scifi but not always. Although it’s rare, I do read some contemporary.
This week is: Aliens Abducted My Heart (Awakened Womb Book 1) Hawke Oakley
Blurb:
Maybe crash landing on an alien planet isn't so bad...
After a piloting blunder strands Captain Levi and his crew on a bizarre floral planet, their peace mission becomes more of a 'get home ASAP' mission. But they're not alone. They’re greeted by big, hunky aliens who are as strange and beautiful as the flowers.
When the aliens welcome them with open arms—and tentacles—Levi is wary. No strangers are that nice. Especially not seven-foot-tall teal dudes with more "feelers" than you can shake a stick at. But Levi's suspicion fades when the smoldering alien Zat'tor takes an unusual interest in him. He never got this much attention back on his own planet, and no human man ever made his heart flutter the way Zat'tor does...
Amid their budding relationship, Levi discovers the shock of his life. Can he ever return to Earth? But more importantly, does he even want to?
Aliens Abducted My Heart is a sweet, spicy romp in an alien world. It features an unexpected pregnancy between a cis man and an alien. Fluff, high-heat scenes, and HEA included!

Why Don was stalking Kit was a question they needed an answer to. Was it on orders from Lennox? They knew Don worked for Lennox, so maybe it was nothing more than a recon mission .
Don had better hope they never got their hands on him.
A small, amused smile formed on Connie’s lips as he observed the bemused expression on Kit’s face. Hudson’s boastful declaration to throw money at any wedding-related problem that may arise clearly left Kit feeling out of his depth. Kit really didn’t know what he was dealing with, that much was obvious.

Hudson studied Kit as his mate squared off with Connie. Oddly enough, Kit seemed perfectly okay, and the bond reinforced that feeling. Kit had been scared and worried, but not nearly as panicked as Hudson and Connie had been when Kit called.
Kit really was okay and was now giving Connie what for.
Kit suddenly swung around and pointed at Hudson. “You’re not off the hook, either.”
“Connie is my right hand. I really do believe you should focus your ire on him.”
“Oh, thanks. Thanks so much.” Connie crosses arms over his chest and glared at Hudson.

This week is: A Beginner’s Guide to Death, Demons, and Other Afterlife Disasters: An M/M Paranormal Romance (Demonic Disasters and Afterlife Adventures Book 1) by Shannon Mae
Blurb:
Adam:
Adam is not having a good day. First, he finds out his very long time boyfriend has been having an affair. Then, his dramatic exit becomes a little too dramatic when he ends up dead. To top it off, he finds out that the afterlife isn’t at all what he expected (he has no desire to learn to play the harp, thank you very much). Fortunately for him, some afterlife bureaucratic screw up ends him up with the most smoking hot demon he’s ever seen, and he decides he’s keeping him. Maybe the afterlife won’t be so bad after all.
Minos:
As Judge of the Damned, Minos has seen all sorts of human depravity over his endless existence. When a beautiful, shining soul pops into his chamber for judgment, he knows it's a mistake. The human, however, seems quite content to hang around, and it isn’t long before Minos decides he just might decide to keep this one. Minos isn’t the optimistic or happy sort, but he can’t help but be caught up in the whirlwind that is Adam. When forces beyond his control want to return Adam to his designated afterlife, Minos decides that will not be happening, heaven and hell be damned.
Tags: A very grumpy demon meets his match in a snarky, sunshine-filled human; not all angels are nice; Limbo is the party place to be; the afterlife is run like a corporate office, complete with red tape, pointless memos, and high levels of frustration; Minos has a tail and knows how to use it.

Hudson squeezed both of his mates. “We were worried.”
“Very worried,” Connie agreed. “I was afraid we couldn’t get to you in time and all of these harmful scenarios for running in my head. Maybe you shouldn’t leave the compound until this damn situation with—”
Kit wormed an arm out and gently pulled Connie’s hair. “Finish that sentence and I’m going to snatch you bald.”
Beckett climbed out of his vehicle and shut the door. “He’s already threatened to snatch the both of you bald today. I wouldn’t push it if I were either of you.”

Hudson wrapped Kit up and just… just breathed. Kit was thereand he was fine. Maybe if he repeated that a few million times his brain wouldget the massage.
A few seconds later Connie plowed into them. They both held ondesperately to Kit, and their hearts beat in rhythm, something Hudson had nevernoticed before now. It was glorious, and steadying, and for the briefest ofmoments, they were one.
“Are you okay?” Connie murmured into Kit’s hair.
