Book Review: Alien Crashes The Wedding by Becca Brayden

 

Book Description

Art dealer Sasha Montgomery is both nervous and thrilled to be invited to the Caldorian Earth Base for her best friend’s wedding to an alien warrior. One, she’s never seen an alien up close, and two, she made a promise to be there, no matter how much the idea of being surrounded by hundreds of huge alien warriors frightens her.

Sasha thinks she’s got it all under control, until Dagan, the groom’s best friend, crashes the wedding. He’s smoking hot—way too hot to be an alien—and determined to seduce her.

Sasha gives in to passion with unexpected consequences. Ancient power rises in response to their new-found bond, and the once innocent Sasha discovers that Dagan has been keeping secrets. He’s not just another warrior, he’s a king, and the power rising between them hasn’t been seen in a millennium. Sasha must learn to control the force clawing its way through her body…or destroy them all.


My Review

Sasha is on her way to her best friend's wedding when she encounters one of the aliens that are on Earth keeping us safe. She finds these aliens a bit frightening since they are so large, so she runs away. Sasha is shy and just wants to get this visit over with for her friend. So what are the chances that the alien she ran away from will be at her friend's wedding? Pretty good and that is where the fun begins. 

Dagen was surprised and a little intrigued when he spots Sasha and she ran away but he spots her again at the wedding and he's even more enamored with her. When Sasha's friend witnesses the flirting going on with these two, she pushes them together gently and they start to get to know one another. But Dagen is an alien and he has his own customs that Sasha knows very little about. So when Dagen pursues her and she agrees to what she thinks is dating him for a week, he thinks she understands his customs and there's some miscommunication because of this. 

I thought Dagen was a great hero and he treated Sasha really well. When something starts to happen to Sasha things really change and there's a huge thing that happens to her and him because of it. I think this might be the beginning of things changing for his people which makes me want to read more of this series now. I really like the direction this book went. I had a lot of fun reading this book and can't wait to read more now. 

I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.
