The crew of the Desiree was unprepared. The Simiu were unexpected...Earth's first contact with an alien race turns to disaster when a friendly encounter erupts into inexplicable violence and the threat of interstellar war. But two ordinary individuals - Mahree Burroughs, an ordinary woman with a gift for friendship, and Dhurrrkk', a male Simiu with boundless curiosity - have forged a bond of understanding that bridges their many differences.

I will try the next one

What was so-so - a slow start at the beginning while getting to know the characters.
What I loved - As the story picks up, the scenes are decently set, the characters really fill out, and the story line takes some twists and turns. I came to be invested in the characters and the star trek like progress of the story enough I want to continue.
What I hated - the gratuitous inclusion of a poorly written sex scene. When I see this in a sci-fi book it always seems to me they include it simply to try to make more sales, even though the story is doing just fine on it's own, and the inclusion is uneeded to move the story along. If I wanted to listen to poorly written sex encounters I would buy a romance novel.

Childish

It feels like this book was written by a 13 year old girl. I almost expected it to end with the main character becoming empress of the universe because all the other aliens love her sooooo much 😂 Not sure if I’ll continue the series

wonderful

I was very impressed great storyline and also lots of fun humor on the book 2

Nonsexual excellent adventure, then a sex story!?

Most of the story is well crafted and enjoyable, but within the last four hours or starting around chapter 14 the story resembles life in a federal prison being described as a luxury resort. It gets to be appallingly (and literally) unbelievable. Also, some should know this is a not particularly romantic sex story, though this does not really become apparent until about the same place the story becomes unbelievable. The effort to include sex is probably related to the quality of the story falling apart.

pretty good book

I liked it ok, but probably will not get book 2. this one was a good read tgo

Sort of entertaining

Kinda of a good story, the second one was much worse, so it's probably not worth getting invested, as the second one barely has the same characters (not the main character, notably)

Written by a woman, for women

Even though author tries to hide behind initials, it is very clear that this is written by a woman. All focus is on emotion. What little action exists is a caricature.

Much better than I expected

It was surprising many times it took an unanticipated direction and now I am looking forward to the rest of the series.

first contact

Very well done First Contact story with two young adults paving the way to peace.

Excellent

I really enjoyed this story. The narrator was great and the story exciting. I can wholeheartedly recommend this book.
