Review: Stargazer Alien Mail Order Brides, Collection #1 by Tasha Black 4 of 5 stars

Stargazer Alien Mail Order Brides, Collection #1 Stargazer Alien Mail Order Brides, Collection #1 by Tasha Black
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A fun collection of alien stories that perfectly set the scene for the rest of the series. A great value way to read the first three books in the series as well as understand how it all started.

#1 - Bond - 4*

Posey Quinn believes that there is more to the world than what she can see so when she goes to Stargazer to donate eggs, she is not completely surprised to learn she has been asked to make an alien fall in love with her and become an ambassador for humankind. What she never expected was how much of a hunk Bond is and how irresistible he is. Bond is on Earth to give a human female as much pleasure as she can handle while learning as much about the planet and its inhabitants as he can. He knows that if the patient has enough resources and the residents are not worthy, that he time with Posey is limited.

This was an enjoyable story that has the slow build-up to a relationship between Bond and Posey which was quite nice to experience with them (even if there was the dark background mission so that they could test the human inhabitants to see basically if they were worthy of living any longer. A sweet story that will be interesting to find out what happens next.

#2 - Rocky - 4*

Georgia Taylor dreams of becoming a police officer, but her world is in a complete tailspin when her friends and her answer an advertisement looking for egg donors and they are in fact intended brides for hunky aliens. She is determined to get back on track with her life plan, but it is not easy as Rocky is just SO gorgeous. Rocky's mission on Earth is to give his intended woman as much pleasure as she can take, and although she is clearly attracted to him, she won't give him the time of day. He has to break through and via her find the inhabitants on the planet worthy else his days of chasing Georgia will soon be at an end.

This was a story that shows that true love will not be denied as much as you are determined to ignore it. We also found out a lot more about the aims of the aliens on Earth and what could happen if things didn't go to plan. I have to say Georgia's determination was interesting at first but became a little tedious as the story went on. Easy to understand and a pleasant light read.

#3 - Magnum - 4*

Rima Bhimani is a bookworm who dreams of things in the clouds until she meets sexy alien Magnum who sets her alight if only he would stop resisting their attraction. The problem is Magnum has a dark secret. However, his need for Rima is getting harder to restrain so that he can focus on the problem at hand. How far will he go to protect the woman he loves?

This was a much more involved story in the series so far and exposed some of the issues with the alien's secret mission and the mechanism for reporting back. I loved that eventually, the truth came out and that it was teamwork plus the quick thinking of Magnum's mate Rima that saved the day and ensured that there would be a chance for them to be together. This one was full of drama and excitement plus an enhanced sense of danger. A good read that was very enjoyable.
