A Bride Worth Fighting For by Tracy Lauren

5.0

I love alien romance but I was surprised how much I ended up enjoying A Bride Worth Fighting For. It has just been awhile since I enjoyed audiobook this much or alien book that wasn't written by Ruby Dixon. Evie gets kidnapped (because there can't be alien romance without human getting kidnapped by someone, right?) and she becomes a price in a gladiator fight. Serif wants to stop the fights in his planet but then he sees what he has to gain. 

I loved getting to know a different alien world, even if I found it weird there were hospitals. I guess I've been inside of Ice Planet world too much where there is only healers. Evie describes the world as making her feel like she's back in time in wild west despite all the alien features.

I liked that Evie was a little scared of Serif but not overly so. I mean she just got into this strange planet where most people look strange. It might be strange but I like how easily she still got used to her fate, even wanting to do her best so Sherif would keep her. I loved how confident Sherif is about Evie being his bride that we learned why he was so sure of it. He genuinely wanted Evie to have feelings for him, which made me like him even more.

The romance was instalove but sometimes you just need something with a sweet hero and that's what Serif was to me. He didn't want Evie to do anything for him exchange for everything and he never pushed her to do anything. Serif was just giving her space to get used to everything.

All in all I just love me some romance with as little drama as possible. I don't always need overly possessive and controlling alpha male or even kickass heroine. It's sometimes just nice to read about two characters who are sweet and wanting to please each other.
