How to Lose an Extraterrestrial in 10 Days (Otherworldly Men, Book 3)
A former assassin seeks sanctuary, and who would suspect a suburban housewife of harboring him? Evie hasn't forgiven Reef for invading her home and terrorizing her chihuahua in Your Planet or Mine? (2006), but agrees to a temporary stay. For his part, Reef can't understand why these humans care about him, and has no memory of his life before he was conscripted and turned into a highly skilled assassin whose emotions were artificially suppressed until his internal computers malfunctioned. Grant really shines in the rousing finale to her Otherworldly trilogy as she skillfully creates sympathy for Reef as he relearns what it is to be human, and Evie matures, leaving insecurity behind to become a strong, vibrant personality with passion for a cause in which she truly believes. The kids are realistic, the dog is great, and the underlying social issues lend complexity and interest to this very enjoyable Earth-based science fiction romance between two opinionated persons from different cultures.
