“Are you… proposing to me?” “Yes, terrible one. You are the most hideous mate anyone ever brought back to Barath, and so you will drive all predators away from our nest with ease.” He churred again, a pleasant sound, actually. “Thanks? But you need to work on the endearments.” 

this book is so fucking funny. definitely worth the money lol. with alien romances my favorite parts are where you have these very different species with such different customs trying to get used to one another and you just have so much hilarious miscommunication 💀 the premise for this book in particular was very entertaining and it was fun to see a human try to use very human tactics in something that is so very not human. hey whatever works right? even if that’s a dance routine from a middle school talent show LOL
