Alien Mischief is the fourth book in the Alien Mate series. You can read this book without having read the previous books in the series.
This one is a bit different from the previous books in the series. Madison didn’t volunteer to become a mate on Dakon. Nope. She worked for the exchange program. But things aren’t what they seem. While trying to prove a point to her brother about sexism in the workplace, she applied as both a man and a woman and got hired as a man. She’s been doing this job as a man for three years. She escorts the mates-to-be to Dakon.
This is not her first trip to Dakon, but she doesn’t spend much time there. She makes sure the women make it okay and then she leaves. She doesn’t even stay around for the mating ceremony. But she stays to watch this time, because a friend of hers is one of the soon to be mates. That is until the ship leaves without her.
Enoki is not only the leader of a tribe, but a leader of the tribe leaders. He’s the main guy on Dakon. He spends a lot of time trying to play peacemaker to all the different tribes and the people in those tribes happy. He also plays fair. As much as he would like to have a mate, he doesn’t use his position to get himself at the front of the line for one of the mates. Though he knows this time is different. The fates are telling him his mate is coming and that she’s there, but he doesn’t know how. All the women were given to the men they were supposed to partner with.
This is a fun series. It follows Earth women who go to Dakon to find men looking for mates. Dakon was struck by an asteroid which not only turned it into a frozen planet, but they have few women now thanks to a virus and a low female birth rate. Earth has a surplus of women, so women are willing to travel millions of miles to another planet for the chance at happy long-term relationship.
If you like fated mates, science fiction and romance, this is series you’ll enjoy. I’ve really enjoyed all the books in this series.
