Book Review: Gray Card by Cassandra Chandler

 

Book Description

Is he after her heart or her planet?

Evelyn Chambers is a nerdgirl and proud of it. When she finds out that her drop-dead gorgeous best friend is an alien general with only three days left on Earth, she has to wrap her head around too much at once. Aliens are real, and if she wants to keep hanging out with one, she'll have to marry him!

Adam Smith has never seen a planet as beautiful as Earth or a woman as enticing as Evelyn. His government wants him to re-enlist, but when Evelyn suggests marriage to help him stay, Adam realizes that what he really wants is her—and he'll sacrifice everything to be with her.

Can he convince his government—and Evelyn—that he's looking for more than a Gray card?



My Review

Evelyn and Adam are best friends but they both really like each other. So when Evelyn realizes that Adam is sad about something she asks what and when he tells her that he has to go back home in three days, she's shocked. But the bigger shock is she proposes to him not realizing he's an alien. But Adam loves her and she loves him and doesn't want him to leave. Evelyn has a lot of come to terms with in a short amount of time. When Adam tells the liaison that he doesn't plan on going back to their planet with him, he tries to break Adam and Evelyn up by telling her exactly who Adam is. 

When she confronts Adam about it, it's not the way he wanted her to find out but she takes it pretty well. But the liaison doesn't stop there, making things worst for them. But Adam isn't going to give up and enlists the help of others to put a stop to whatever nefarious things the liaison seems to be doing. 

All in all this was a fun, quick read. I really liked Adam and Evelyn and hope that more aliens show up on Earth. 

I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
