Vektal & Georgie: It's All About the "Khui", Baby!- 5 Stars

As an avid romance reader for many years in my life, I was always fixed on reading one specific type of romance; contemporary. As I have gotten older, I have expanded my horizon into other genre's such as paranormal and sci-fi books. Thats why when I saw a TikTok video from a woman raving about this book, I had to search it out and see for myself. This is how I happened upon this book. At first glance at the title, I just knew this was going to be some far-fetched nonsense.

BOY, WAS I WRONG!

This had to be one of the BEST romance novels that I have read this year!

The books is about a woman named Georgie who is snatched from her bed in the middle of the night by aliens and onboarded to a space craft with a handful of other women in their mid-20s. Sounds ridiculous right? I thought so too... then I kept reading. Something goes wrong and the alien kidnappers have to ditch their "cargo". The ladies are dumped on an ice planet and left to fend for themselves. With very little clothing to stay warm and food, Georgie ventures out to find food and shelter for the ladies. She gets caught in a trap and is found by an native of the strange world, a male by the name of Vektal.

Georgie and Vektal have an obvious language barrier and its interesting and sweet how we see them communicate and interact. However, Georgie and the girls face an unknown threat as they aree no equipped to deal with their new environment. And there is the threat of the aliens returning to retrieve their cargo.

Make no doubt, there is alot of heat and sexy scenes that will make you clutch your pearls. But, this is indeed a love story. You will fall in love with Georgie and Vektal. This is an excellent kick off to this series. It started a bit slow but it really picked up fast. I can't wait to read the rest of the books in this series. This author has talent and I'm here for it!

Happy reading!
