Dashing Through the Stars by Erin Tate by Celia KyleMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Tave fa V'yl-Zeret is the Prince of the Ujal and will do anything to make his mate happy even if that is creating a human holiday that he doesn't understand (How could a single person really circle the globe and deliver toys to every child?). However, this year the concern is not whether he has bought enough toys for his own child but the alien spaceship that has just entered the Earth's orbit. There is an intense debate as to if they are friend or foe. Either way on Earth there is a humbug somewhere who is willing to go to any length to stop any peace talks between the three races - including kidnapping Ujal royalty and assassination. Can they sort all these problems out, not have war break out and have the Christmas that the young are all looking forward to?
This was a nice short story that encompassed the Christmas spirit as races came together in order to beat those who would destroy peace and cooperation between them all. I loved the way that we were introduced to the Preor and this then makes sense and introduces the start of a whole new series based on the Preor race and how they find their own mates among the population of Earth. Well written, easy to read and understand. Contains just a little explicit sexual content.
