Alien Lieutenant’s Lover by Scarlett Grove

Sophia:
With my best friend Madeline matched with the king of Mars and pregnant with his child, there is no way he will let her out of his sight. That means that the dangerous mission back to Earth to retriever her sister Abigail is all on me. I’ve never been the brave one. I’ve spent my life comfortably in the shadow of my accomplished friend, but now I’ll have to step up because Madeline and Abigail are depending on me. I’m not going to let my friends down.

Martix:
I’ve been tasked with leading the mission back to Earth to retrieve one single female. No matter how absurd I consider the risk, I am loyal to my king and to Mars. I will do my duty to the best of my ability. But when the queen’s best friend, who is joining me on this mission, incites the effects of the matching serum, my doubts are multiplied.

Sophia:
Every time I see Martix, I feel like my body is going to melt into a sticky puddle of quivering goo. That is so not helpful. I have to convince the most suspicious woman in the history of Earth to come back to Mars with me. And she hates aliens!
If she finds out that I get damp every time the massive Martian looks at me with those bright blue eyes, she’s never going to trust a single word I have to say.

Martix:
Sophia is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen and watching her grow into her power is a site to behold. But I cannot give in to the violent urge to make her mine. Doing so without the conformation of the matching system would be treasonous to Mars. I will not betray my planet.
I must contain this desire with the iron will of a trained Martian Marine, rescue the queen’s irritating sister, and return through the timegate before it’s too late. If I’m unable to do my duty, it could spell disaster for us all.
