This was a fun collection of short stories that featured different couples, but all built upon the prior one to tell a larger story.

That being said, I was pretty frustrated with the first one (review below) and almost stopped reading. I’m glad I didn’t because the remaining stories were a lot better!

Story 1: Stepbrother Alien

Waaaay too much going on in a 54-page short story. Having a kidnapping that is resolved in 3 pages doesn’t work.

Short stories should really focus around one plot line.

5 short stories in one anthology of human women and hot, sexy aliens who are at their 'mating peak' and need to mate with a woman or lose themselves to insanity. Each of the stories were not too bad, but I think they were all too short to have any character or plot development and the sex scenes weren't as sexy as other short stories I've read so that wasn't even a plus for this book.

Step Alien
Alex & Kira
Short, quick and hot.
Perfect for those 15 or 20 minutes you steal for yourself hiding in the bathroom or the pantry.
Rating 5 stars

Sweet Alien
Joseph and Angie
Now that was SWEET!
Again a quick read,
But the amount of emotion put into such a short story was amazing.
Rating 5 stars

Double Alien
Tej, Leann and Dom MFM
Whoa.
That was HOT!!!
Another quick read.
I would be interested in a longer version of this book.
My naughty side likes the suggestions that were made.
Rating 5 stars

Boss Alien
Jax and Gina
Short and HOT!
Jax was so forward and so awkward.
I was embarrassed for Gina at times.
Still loved it.
Rating 5 stars

Savage alien
Sekor and Mia
Sekor, aside from being a warrior, who are known to be more on the barbaric and forceful side, might have been the sweetest of all the Reestrians.
Rating 5 stars

Overall, I enjoyed this set of sci-fi shirt stories.
I have been on a major genre binge the past few weeks, and this was a wonderful addition to my growing list.
I would highly recommend.
Happy reading!

These stories are wonderful standalone sci-fi alien romances. Each story does have some references to characters in earlier books, so if you want to understand some of the references, it would benefit you to read this compilation from start to finish instead of skipping around. There aren't many of these, however, so don't be upset if you've already done it! It's really not a big deal.

You won't have much of a problem reading the stories without having to devote a week for each. I was a bit disappointed when the stories ended since I fell in love with each character. Reestria sounds like a great planet and I would love to see a book that has more about that. These stories are more about Earth women and the Reestrian male(s) that want to mate with them. Each story is unique and each one has its own HEA. This is a lot of fun and the only problem is that I wish there was more!

This contains 5 books in the same series. They can be read independently of each other as they all have HEAs but, the nice thing about this is they all follow on from each other. So, characters you briefly meet in one book you then learn their story in the next book. Except the final book, when you hear about the Clan in the previous book and then meet them in the final book. I really enjoyed reading these and I spent the entire afternoon reading the whole series. I am looking forward to more from this author as this series really was excellent!

Take a girl looking for love, add in an alien or two and you have a recipe for romance. These 5 stores deliver just that with Reestrian Aliens all looking for love and Earth girls who are by degrees keen, repressed, damaged or desperate in some form or another. Each story is a variation on the theme and delivers romance and love with some drama thrown in to assist!

Well written in my opinion and worth the read. I enjoyed these and recommend them without reservation for light hearted reading

Five steamy sci-fi romances, what I would call quick and easy to read stories, bundled up into a delightful anthology. This is the perfect way to relax and just enjoy reading for all the pleasure it can bring you. I have read this author before and I found her books, including the ones in this collection, to be endearing and quite satisfying.

I was not overwhelmed by these stories. Although the writing and story telling did improve with each new couple, I found the writing to be too simple and in some cases almost juvenile. I liked the ideas of the Reestrian males and how they find their mates but there were hints that the books could have been better but overall, they were a miss for me.

Addicted to the collection, absolutely love it.
Each book just gets better and better every time I read a book from the collection. Wonderful characters that can be related to. These books you won't want to put down, you'll be hooked from the start, I enjoyed reading them. I'd recommend your books to anyone. Loaded up with a drink so I could cuddle up and read it.

Straight to mating

Hmph the first story was about an alien who was raised on earth and falls for his stepsister. The second his brother falls for his brothers mate best friend who is coming for the wedding. The other three are human women who just by the virtue of being single and alone - meant unmated and up for grabs.

A set of five short fast stories that held my attention throughout this set, the books are Step Alien,
Sweet Alien, Double Alien, Boss Alien, and Savage Alien all in the Reestrain World. I have read some of them singularly but I like that they are all in one place. A set I would recommend. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Enjoyable alien box set about Reestrian aliens who go into a mating cycle when they find their possible mate but if not completed they die so if their desired mate refuses them in desperation they seek another female to finish the mating cycle. They are five short stories with instant romance that end with a happily ever after for our couples. I volunteer to read and review this ARC.

Loved It!! I thought this was a great collection, and a great way to get the complete way to get the complete series at a great price! Each story lets you in on how that alien found his own happily ever after. Just a note these are shorter stories.

Entertaining

I liked this series of short, alien romances. They were quick reads with a human females and aliens in heat. Trying to bridge their differences before the male aliens went coo coo was funny. There was just enough sex to be interesting without overwhelming the reader.

I skimmed the majority of the first story and was bored most of the time. By the time the second story came up, I couldn't focus on the plot for longer than three sentences at a time and called it quits. Maybe the collection picked up after those two? Who knows. But the first two stories weren't worth the reading time and I couldn't objectively encourage people to buy and read this collection.

All the books within this series were great. I enjoyed the the males who sought after the human females who stirred their mating urges and would cherish them for life.

Pedestrian Mates

This was an interesting collection of Aliens and their mates. It was a quick and easy read that held my interest. The stories could have had a little more depth to them but as they are they were still a good read.

A collection of Reestrian mates stories. Pretty much the same except for the different characters. They are short but worth the read.

An entertaining if a bit predictable box of short stories. These stories are sweet and sexy. Determined alpha males claiming their mates at all costs. The stories are well written, full of drama and adventure. Very enjoyable sci-fi romances.

These are books that could be read separately but best together which is why the box set all in one is perfect. The stories are not long and are steamy reading.

I love books that are in a series and I love sci-fi romances, so this one was a real treat. Action, adventure, surprises, passion, plenty of steamy scenes, and a HEA for each couple made this one pure perfection.

When these alien makes go through their final growth stage they get desperate for a mate. They will look for a human female who become their mates. They may find it easier said than done. See how they get on

I loved these books!! They are kind of short, but sometimes that's what a reader craves. There was enough of a story to develop the characters. It's a recommended good read!!

I enjoyed reading this set of books with its over the top alien storylines. Each book had a sweet yet steamy relationship that made you feel for the couple as they worked out just who was in charge. Great alpha males and lovely women who capture their interest. Great set of books.

Very good short stories

The short stories were good, too alike with similarities to be in one book but they were all good. They do have some very striking description of the planet and flora. Very beautiful.
