Poetic Puppy's Reviews > A Baby for the Alien Prince

I'm not a huge fan of this genre, but I really enjoyed this book.

Margot is fed up with her life; she wants a family and that’s the one things she’s denied as a subterranean dweller. Elorshin wants a Paritella (something akin to a soulmate), but he’s denied that when the Prince of a Major House to whom he’s affiliated forces him to take a human bride. When Celestial Mates matches the pair together, Margot finds herself moving to a new world; one where she’s unwanted but very much needed.

I enjoyed this book, even though the speed at which Margot picks up the Alien language is beyond ridiculous. While this is your typical sci-fi romance, Alva is a really well constructed world. I loved the descriptions of the place, the people and the politics; I’m hoping we’ll learn more about it too in subsequent novels. Not only does Alva have a unique landscape but so too does Earth, as overpopulation has become a real problem. After moving to Alva, Margot is in for a real culture shock, something she didn’t anticipate. I would have liked to have seen her interacting with the Do’ana people a little more, but you get the idea of how she’s able to win people over based off of her interactions with those of the Prince’s household. As for the Prince, Elorshin, you’ll find he wins you over despite his not showing himself in his best light in his first meeting with Margot. The development of their relationship is actually quite sweet so if you’re looking for a quick and easy romance novel, ‘A Baby for the Alien Prince’ might just be the book for you.
