Zerberu

Brides to Beasts, Book 2

By: Athena Storm

Narrated by: Tristan James, Meghan Kelly

It's probably not a good sign when you start reading the refund policy on your mail-order bride....

I had two choices. Go to prison or marry an alien. I chose the alien. I should have picked prison.

Don't get me wrong. He's so...big. He can lift me with one hand. He's handsome as sin, with a touch that can send any woman into a supernova. I melt from the moment I see him - and not just because his planet is a million degrees.

I'm now a Companion to one of the most important aliens in the galaxy. And I have no idea what I'm doing. I can't cook. I can't clean. The only thing I know how to do is...that thing.

But I better learn to keep house fast. Because if I can service all of this alien's outrageous needs, I'm in trouble.

Why, you ask? Because one thing. You see, I never realized in my life of crime and theft that this alien would steal my own heart.

Contains mature themes.

Good story

I liked the unique storyline. The narration left a bit to be desired. The female narrator sounded too old for the character and lacked inflection.

Sadly, this story is a bit to long... It drags out. if this was a movie, I went for a drink or something.
The plot is nice but there is not enough swung to make it swift to listen. The narrators are very good.

Pretty silly but I like these

Inventive plots , characters are good. Not just the same old. Stakes never get too high. Just fun escapist romance on another planet. I got no complaints.

Good story

Liked the story. Narrator killed it. Literally. Made this whole thing so cringy I stopped listening.

not as good as the first book

I picked this one up because the first book is was a riot to me. It was silly, funny, and steamy. This second book holds none of that same charm. I think the male narrator (Tristan) really let it down. In the first book he went all out with the voices and acting, in this one I couldn't tell characters apart most of the time and while he was trying to give Zerberu that stilted nerd cadence, it ended being applied to all the characters when he was narrating. Aside from the narration, the story drags a bit and near the end when the MFC does yet another "I don't love you move" I just hard rolled my eyes and skipped ahead a few chapters because it was just too much/too predictable for me. It ends well and very cute, but over all the story could've been better. I don't regret getting it and I might get the next book if it goes on deep discount sale, but this isn't going to be a "wish list" series for me. I 100% still recommend the first book because it is just so funny to me.
