Book 1: Ekpen

Earth is a dystopian nightmare that's going to be destroyed very, very soon. Nobody knows exactly when or how, but the threat of destruction looms in the background of everyone's mind.

Holly is ready to escape from her planet, but there's a problem: only rich people actually get to leave Earth, and she's barely got five bucks to her name.

Enter the Grimalkin Bridal Exchange.

The deal is simple: she goes to an alien planet, marries some random dude, and gets to live out her days in luxury and happiness.

Only, the guy she's paired up with doesn't want to get married.

And he doesn't want to get married to her.

In fact, he actually kind of...hates her.

 

Book 2: Torao

Three months ago, Amena spent one wild night with a man from Grimalkin. He was everything she’d ever wanted or hoped for, but she knows that she’ll never see him again.

She can’t.

When Amena signs up for the Grimalkin Bridal Exchange at the Intergalactic Dating Agency, she expects to be taken to a planet with more cats than people, but she doesn’t expect to see him. It’s Torao. It’s the man she slept with in a field of wildflowers.

But how can this be?

Torao isn't ready to get married, but he doesn't have a choice.

Short. Curvy. Soft.

The woman from Earth who practically runs into his arms is everything he never knew he wanted.

But she shouldn’t be here on his planet. She definitely shouldn’t be in his bed keeping him warm. This human has a secret, and he plans to find out what it is.

 

Book 3: Leo

Leo has been dreaming of getting married his entire life and having someone he can love in spite of everything that's gone wrong. He was never supposed to be a doctor.His plan had been to become a warrior or a fighter, but when he lost his tail in a freak accident, he knew he needed to choose a career path where he could hide. Being a doctor means he gets to focus on everyone else - no one looks twice at him.

Tamara has been worried about her friends ever since they left Earth. Holly and Amena were both supposed to contact her, but they didn't. Now it's up to Tamara to make her way to Grimalkin and find out what's happened to her best friends. She lost her leg years ago, so she knows she's not going to be eligible for the bridal exchange, but there are other ways of getting to Grimalkin.

When Tamara is caught stowing away on a bridal transport to Grimalkin, she's given an impossible choice.

Then she sees Leo, and she realizes that all bets are off.

She wants him.

Like, really wants him.

But is Leo ready to love a human like Tamara?

And is she willing to open her heart to the one person who could crush it?

What Risingshadow readers think about this book

9/10

I read each book as an individual and not as part of the Omnibus Edition

Ekpen

I enjoyed reading about Ekpen & Holly as well as their cats Steven and Mistress Chaos in this series and thought this story was an entertaining and fairly quick read that does a good job of introducing the Grimalkin world into the multi author Intergalactic Dating Agency series. I am looking forward to continuing this series and reading about Ekpen's brothers Torao and Leo and seeing who they end up with.

I received a free copy of this book as part of the Romancing the Alien 10 Year Anniversary Bundle via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Torao

I really enjoyed getting to read Torao & Amena's story in this book as well as all the cats that Torao takes care of at his cat sanctuary. These two characters had a fun story and I was happy to see how they managed to work things out in the end as well as when Amena and Holly from the first book in the series were reunited. I am looking forward to reading about Leo in the next book as well as their cousin Apollo in Alien Indulgence: A Sci-Fi Alien Abduction Romance.

Leo

I really enjoyed Leo & Tamara's story in this last book in this trilogy from the Multi author Intergalactic Dating Agency series and am also looking forward to reading about Apollo & Kate in Alien Indulgence: A Sci-Fi Alien Abduction Romance. Leo was so sweet in this story and I enjoyed seeing how him and Tamara helped support each other about their individual insecurities. I hope to read more books about Grimalkin as well as from the Intergalactic Dating Agency series.
