Georgie’s life was going well until she woke up inside of a UFO with little green men irritated that she was screaming in response to their presence. The next thing she knew, she was groggy as hell and huddling with the other women who were abducted. Things couldn’t get any worse, or so she thought, when those little green men had the nerve to dump their human cargo on an ice planet! Armed in ill-fitting borrowed clothes and a weapon she doesn’t know how to use, Georgie is off to see if she can find help. It’s too bad help has arrived in the form of a giant blue man with horns who seems to be infatuated with her…
I started this book because it sounded fun. I can now confirm that it’s absolutely hilarious once you get past the opening, which is pretty gnarly. There aren’t any content warnings in the book, but a rape occurs shortly after the book starts. The book itself is pretty dark until Georgie and company get dumped on an ice planet. From that point forward, the book turns out to be pretty good. At first, we see Georgie struggling with being abducted by aliens and getting dumped on a planet that is very clearly not Earth. Then we discover how funny she and Vektal are as she figures out this planet and how to save herself and the other people she was dumped with.
One of the reasons I think this book works so well is because it’s very humorous. Romance isn’t the main plot, and we actually learn a lot about this ice planet as well as Vektal’s people through Georgie. It’ll be interesting to see where the story goes since it appears that each person who survives along with Georgie will get their own books. I can see the series becoming more of a true romance as time goes on, but for now, it’s really funny and interesting. I had a great time reading it once Georgie and Vektal started traveling together.
