Alien in the Family by Gini Koch

Alien in the Family (Alien Novels, #3)

by Gini Koch

Sci-fi action meets steamy paranormal romance in Gini Koch’s Alien novels, as Katherine “Kitty” Katt faces off against aliens, conspiracies, and deadly secrets. • “Futuristic high-jinks and gripping adventure.” —RT Reviews 

Planning any wedding is hard enough, but Katherine "Kitty" Katt and Jeff Martini have a lot more to worry about than seating arrangements, because multiple inter-stellar invasions, Alpha Team in mortal peril, and inter-alien conspiracies are all on the guest list—and the gifts they've brought contain some explosive surprises.

The discovery that Martini is actually a member of the Alpha Centaurion Royal Family brings additional bad news—emissaries are on their way to see if Kitty's royal bride material. And they're not the only things coming from the Alpha Centauri system. Amazonian assassins, spies, alien beasties, shape-shifters, and representatives from the Planetary Council, combined with a tabloid reporter who's a little too on the mark, create a deadly situation for Kitty and the rest of Alpha Team.

When the assassins strike far too close to home for anyone's comfort, Kitty realizes it's going to come down to more than throwing a bouquet—she's going to have to face an entire planetary consciousness and dethrone a monarch in order to make it to the church on time...

Alien in the Family is the thrilling third installment of the Alien novels.

As always, a fun, funny, action pack and romantic story, filled with crazy adventures, crazy villains and royal surprises.
As always, Kitty is extremely awesome, Jeff is protective, jealous and hot, Reader needs to turn straight, ACE is adorable, Chuckie is much more likable and many many more...

The most mention-worthy addition to the cast in this book are the Poofs, also known as The Cutest and Most Useful/Adorable Pet In The Universe, SQUEE!

The second is MJO, AKA Mister Joel Oliver, a reporter who starts stalking the gang.

The most interesting part about this book is probably the whole new aspects of Hybrids we find out. It's came as a surprise the first time I read the book, but an intriguing one.
Another awesome part was finding out about all the different planets in the AC system, where the ACs come from. They were all kind of crazy and cool.

And ~sigh~ their wedding and all that ensued. So sweet.
Then there was that ending. *squee* so happy for these two!
