Can't Help Falling in Love with an Alien

Tentacular Tales, Book 2

De: Chloe Archer

Narrado por: Greg Boudreaux

A grumpy-sexy alien and his (mostly) human sunshiny mate find the road to happily ever after is paved with challenges, including a troublesome ex, alien refugees in need of help, unexpected mating instincts, and someone trying to expose alien existence on Earth. Tentacles and tarnation! Will they be able to handle everything in their way and finally get engaged?

River

Working for the Alliance is a sci-fi nerd’s dream–aka mine–come true. I’ve even won the heart of my grumpy-sexy alien boyfriend. Nothing can bring me down, baby. I’m walking on freaking sunshine! Except now one of Kai’s douchey AF exes decides to turn up like a bad case of crabs that he can’t get rid of. I don’t trust him one bit. But I’ve got even bigger problems to worry about. Like helping some awesome aliens in trouble, and maybe moving in with Kai, who’s totally going to propose any day now—right? Oh, and my shady relatives might be hiring an assassin to take me out. So, you know, a day in the life of River Sullivan. I’m sure everything’s going to be fine. Won’t it?

Kai

Just when we think we have a new lead on the drug dealer targeting extraterrestrials on Earth, we run into a major roadblock. And the longer this mess of an investigation drags on without answers, the less I like it. Outside of work though, things are going amazingly well with my adorable mate–dear galactic gods, how did that happen? But with an ex back in my life wanting to be friends again, and the threat of a potential assassin looming, things are getting a little complicated. I love River with both my hearts—and all five tentacles—but even I’m worried I might not be able to protect him from the dangers ahead. Also, I need to figure out how the heck I’m going to propose to him. River deserves something “epic,” and I don’t want to let him down. Am I going to be able to deliver?

Can’t Help Falling in Love with an Alien (Tentacular Tales #2) is a (116,000 words) M/M sci-fi rom com and the second book in the series. It should be listened to in chronological order. This installment features a pajama party date that will go down in infamy, inappropriate team t-shirts, a half-baked love poem, more Captain Starblade and Lord Vardox, drunken shenanigans courtesy of spaceship moonshine, unexpected mating instincts, plenty of new aliens with problems for River to solve, and tentacles galore. And possibly an epic proposal? This book has an HFN ending and no cheating. Never fear—there is a guaranteed HEA by the end of the series!

Brilliant Story & Listen🎧Hilarious & Entertaining!

Wow, you definitely can’t help falling in love with this series and the amazing characters! Chloe Archer delivers another spectacular and laugh out loud “Tentacular Tales” novel. This book is a continuation of River and Kai’s story and picks up where the first one, “It’s Not Unusual To Be Loved by an Alien”, left off, not only is it a not to be missed story and just as amazing as this book, but to get the most out of the world building, character growth and the ongoing storyline you want to read or listen to that book first. River and Kai quickly became some of my favorite characters and the secondary characters are close seconds and several of them will be getting they own books so I am excited about that. Archer created something very special when she created this series and the world it is set it, the characters and storylines are fascinating and the dialogue is absolutely brilliant. I am loving the in the moment scenes between the two leads as well as the ongoing storylines that are run through out the series. The writing, plotting and world building is phenomenal, as is the character growth and development. The story is entertaining and has the perfect balance of drama, humor and wit, heartfelt emotions, and some steamy romance, tentacles and all. Chloe Archer, thank you for another fabulously hilarious story, I am looking forward to what comes next in your “Tentacular Tales”.

🎧 📚🎧   I listened to the audiobook edition, Greg Boudreaux, whose talent knows no bounds, delivers an exceptional and “out of this world” performance bringing these characters and story to life. As always, his character voices are perfection, each voice is fitting to that character’ persona, and I loved how he took each role, ran with it and made it his own. You could hear how much heart and emotion that he puts into his work as he captures all the characters’ emotions and has you feeling every single one. He handles the witty dialogue with ease and lands the humor effortlessly. Boudreaux is an entertaining storyteller and a versatile voice artist. His narration enhances this already brilliant story to another level. Thank you for another outstanding listen, it is always a pleasure to listen to your audios. 

SUper fun with great narration

This is a series that must be read in order because a lot of the 2nd book builds off of the events and people in the 1st book.

I have read this book in digital format and listened to it on audio. The audio is fantastic! The narrator does a great job bringing the world and characters to life. The way he narrates brings the humor out even more and makes this a great and super fun listen!

The 2nd full book in the series starts off with a bunch of fun and laughs. It is funny and quirky and has a lof of unique aspects that are highly entertaining.. Kai and River are a cute couple. They are so sweet and cute as a couple and I look forward to seeing this relationship evolve. on that note, there are a few other relationships I would also love to see form and evolve, not to mention a couple back stories. The pop culture refrences are fun though some might feel questionable to a lot of people. "Can't Help Falling in Love with and Alien," is a much steamier book compared to the 1st and the appendages are much more involved. I can't wait for the next book and hope for more answers to the mystery arcs that the series has so far.

Amazing storyline

I have been waiting for this second book and it been worth the wait. I lost sleep listening to the audio. The narrator is the best. I have fallen in love with Greg B. Please keep him for series. Can’t wait for Book 3, wonder who up next the Uncle or bestie 🫣.

Worth the Read

This series is so well-written and beautifully narrated. It is beyond addictive to listen to. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Outstanding

Exallent Reading

Still so much fun

The narrator does an amazing job portraying the different characters and the characters are so fun.

The Fun Sci-Fi Love Continues with Some Suspense

All things alien enthusiast River and his tentacled agent boyfriend Kai are back in another amusing out of this world love letter to sci-fi pop culture and worlds beyond. There's a bit more suspense this time around, with both of their lives in danger in different ways, and plenty of interspecies steamy times.

Narrator Greg Boudreaux returns with another charismatic performance that fully captures each character with gusto. That goes double for embodying the energetic and effervescent River. His considerable talents really shine in this series, and he makes listening along to an already fun story all the more engaging.

This story definitely builds on the first book, featuring the same MCs, and their ongoing HFN storyline ends on a bit of a cliffhanger here. I've heard the author is planning 10 books for the series, some featuring secondary characters as the MCs, and I'm here for it. Especially Mal and Benji's story. I received a free review copy of this audio book and have left this honest review voluntarily.

SO.MUCH.FUN.

I love this book and this series! Even the "dramatic" encounters are played for laughs. The snark and teasing between the various friends and family (and family/in-laws to be) is hilarious and keeps me in stitches. Is there ANYTHING more entertaining than the Genaro boys stoned or drunk? (No, there is not.😁) So many lessons learned, too. Lesson 1 (for River): It's all fun and games, until somebody gets poked in the eye with a (stuffed) unicorn horn. Lesson 2 (for Mal): It's funny until it happens to you. Favorite quote: I'm evil, but I draw the line at murder. And let's talk about the narration. Absolutely out of this world! Greg Boudreaux gives such character to the characters, and I am amazed at all the fun and unique voices he gives to the aliens. This man is truly a vocal genius. He makes these books a whole other layer of FUN. I love the books and the audiobooks and I am so eager for more. I must know about this sanctioning ceremony! It's gotta be in the nude, right?

I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author, but I am 100% voluntarily leaving this honest review. GET.THIS.AUDIOBOOK!

The narrator captured the characters just right

This was a clever follow up to book 1. BUT….
Some parts were super predictable.
The bad ex turning evil 🙄 Chewy not being the bodyguard we hoped for

The new aliens brought into this episode were interesting. Not sure if I would have made them strippers but hey it is Vegas 🧐🤔😏 River’s best friend is the most annoying here. He’s an epic eye roll for me.

River and Kai are still interesting enough to keep the story engaging. The biology of Kai is intriguing. What will come of it in book 3?!?I’m definitely getting the audio for that. Greg does an excellent job of capturing the vibe of each character. It made the book that much more entertaining! Some parts will make you seriously laugh out loud. The narration of Greg made of this book made it really come to life. I enjoyed it immensely!
