I won’t lie, this is probably my own fault. For some reason, I had a hard time figuring out who was who of the people (or, should I say aliens?) that whisked Kitty off after she killed her first alien. Martini is funny, open, and he knows what he wants: Kitty. I probably got hung up on the fact that Martini is different from the male lead characters in the last couple books/series I’ve read. It’s not every day you confront an alien and kill it with a pen, then get swept off your feet by a very charming and persistent hunk named Martini. Is now a good time to get to it? The beginning of the book was a whirlwind of events, and I had a hard time keeping up. Two things that stopped me from giving it an even higher rating: the beginning and the end.

And while there was a lot of ass kicking, this was different, and a refreshing read. I was actually hoping to avoid that with this book. It seems like the past couple series I’ve read, it’s the tried and true, normal girl suddenly finds she has all these special powers and starts kicking ass. Maybe I hadn’t totally written it off, after all. I found myself not in the mood to read the book I had originally started a couple days earlier, so I decided to try something different. You would really think that after all the books she’s recommended to me (Night Huntress, for starters) and I ended up loving even after being initially skeptical, I would learn. I took one look at the title and cocked an eyebrow and mentally wrote it off even though Tara told me not to. Why I Read This Book and General Thoughts And from now on, for Kitty, things are going to be sexy, dangerous, wild, and out of this world. He’s Kitty’s kind of guy, no matter what planet he’s from.

In the middle of the chaos a handsome hunk named Jeff Martini appears, sent by the “agency” to perform crowd control. Though Kitty should probably run away, she springs into action to take the monster down. And it only gets uglier when the man turns into a winged monster, straight out of a grade-Z horror movie, and goes on a killing spree. Marketing manager Katherine “Kitty” Katt steps into the middle of what appears to be a domestic dispute turned ugly.

How can a sexy marketing manager join forces with an Alpha Centauri male in Armani to save the planet-using hairspray, a Mont Blanc pen, and rock n’ roll?
