Not Written in the Stars

He's Out of This World, Book 2

De: Piper Scott, Renee Fox

Narrado por: Michael Ferraiuolo

Houston... we have a problem.

Ezra Miller’s life has been turned upside down ever since his best friend hooked up with an alien named Al, and not just because he walked in on them having close encounters of the third kind. In the year since he discovered the truth about extraterrestrial life, Ezra has accidentally become the sole person the Darvrokian race trusts to act as Earth’s intergalactic representative, which is great and all, until he's assigned a Darvrokian coworker plucked out of his worst nightmares.

Titan Leon is everything Ezra hates in a man. He’s arrogant, presumptuous, and worst of all, hot enough to make Ezra forget why he hates him in the first place.

Hot enough that “absolutely not” turns into “only this one time.”

Hot enough that Ezra can overlook the fact that he’s Al’s most disliked brother.

But one time isn’t enough for Titan, and he won’t take no for an answer.

He’ll do whatever it takes to make Ezra his.

And sure, he’s an asshole… but as much as Ezra hates him, he can’t help but see that there’s something softer about him lurking just beneath the surface. Something more than Titan lets anyone else see. And whatever that something is, it has its hooks in Ezra so deeply, he can’t help but fall into bed with him over and over again.

With the same sense of humor and earnestness as Crash-Landed in Love, Not Written in the Stars is a witty contemporary alien romance that explores the ideas of identity, belonging, and choosing your own path in life, while tackling tough questions like: how much sand is needed to fill a room in your mansion? Is $100 enough to tip your new friend, Uber driver Carlos G? And how many Slim Jims are customary to put into a gift basket?

Please note that while this story takes place on modern-day Earth… life finds a way.

So funny!

The story is hilarious with the alien and human differences and the narrator did amazing as always

Incredible Story & Narration🎧Hilarious & Quirky!

Piper Scott and Renee Fox went and did it again, penning another amazing novel set in their “He’s Out of this World” series and, like the first book, it is absolutely brilliant. This book picks up soon after the first book, “Crash-Landed in Love”, Jude and Al’s story ended, and is Ezra and Titan’s story. Ezra was Jude’s roommate in the first book, and Titan is Al’s brother. To get the most out of the incredible world building and character development, I recommend starting with the first book. Titan caught Ezra’s eye the moment he saw him, admiring his human form and smoking-hot body, but then he opened his mouth, coming off like a full-of-himself jerk. Though that did not stop them from having a steamy one-night stand, a one and done. When Titan gets a new job assignment on earth, he gets to work side by side with Ezra and wants to pick up where they left off. There was an undeniable chemistry between them, and they could only deny each other for so long. It was great watching these two together and seeing their relationship turn into something more, despite of the surrounding complexities, his brother and being co-workers. The banter, witty dialogue and play on words lost in translation was hilarious. I loved all the layers of this story and how it all played out, with the perfect balance of drama, only a touch of angst, charming humor, heartfelt emotions, and steamy romance. I also loved how much Titan grew into his own by the end, also loved the twist with Ezra’s father. This story hooked me right in, had me cracking up and tugging at my heartstrings too. Thanks for another wonderfully entertaining story and the out of this world ride!

🎧📚🎧 Michael Ferraiuolo continues to deliver an outstanding performance with character voices that are amazing and a perfect portrayal of each. I love how he takes each role and owns it, sounding believable and just as I imagine the characters to sound. As Titan, he was a natural in the role, flawlessly embodying the character’s suave arrogance, quirky lines, and distinctive personality traits. His Ezra was just as fabulous, grasping every aspect of his personality, including his fierceness, and did the same for the side and secondary characters too. His pacing and tone were just right for the story and he conveyed all the characters’ emotions into his performance, having you feel them all. Ferraiuolo is an entertaining storyteller and his captivating performance keeps you glued to the story.

fabulous alien miscommunication

The alien hijinks and miscommunication in the story are hilarious. Plus, I loved Secretary of Defense Buttons, the cat. Titan and Ezra had a comical romance that grew sweet has Titan learned to be a better person.
Michael Ferraiuolo has a beautiful voice and was lots of fun to listen to.

Michael Ferraiuolo Saves The Day

The authors have been blessed by some God because they landed the amazing Michael Ferraiuolo as the narrator for this book. I'm going to be completely honest and let you know that I only read/listened to this book because I received an ALC. Had I just been reading this on my own or gotten a traditional ARC I would have added it to my DNF pile halfway through chapter two.

Luckily for all Michael Ferraiuolo does such an amazing job making this ridiculous book entertaining that I pushed through and by the halfway mark I was actually enjoying myself quite a bit. Turns out, once I started listening to the book for what it is and not what it could be, I really enjoyed myself.

This book is the definition of "I said I liked it, I didn't say it was good." It is absolutely off the walls crazy. There are dorky aliens, cats holding great positions of power, mpreg and some seriously cringy and questionable slang used. In the best way possible. This story is okay with making fun of itself. Which makes it easy to get into and laugh at all the hilariously over the top jokes.

I usually don't like mpreg. Mostly because it is usually done as regular human men just being able to get pregnant with no explanation as to why. I don't mind it at all in Omegaverse situations where the author more or else explains a biological difference from regular humans to justify it as fact within the story. But this one I absolutely loved! It makes a lot more sense that an alien species would be able to make mpreg work. It was fantastic for the storyline and everything fit together so well.

I actually do highly recommend this audiobook but the audiobook alone. I don't think anyone would get the same level of enjoyment if they read it on ebook or paperback only.

Romantic Encounters of the Alien Kind!

There is nothing better than romantic encounters of the alien kind! This series is all the quirky fun, and I loved all the silly characters so much. Titan was quite full of himself, and I enjoyed everyone single one of his sarcastic reactions to all things human. Ezra does not want to be attracted to Titan, but well we know how that turns out! Michael's narration made this story even funnier, and he just has that way of bringing quirky characters like these to life.

Loved this so much!!!

This was such a fun book. These two authors did a great job and I laughed so hard. I liked it so much that I purchased the first audiobook as soon as I finished this one, which is book 2 in the series, He's Out of This World. Piper Scott is one of my well loved authors but I've never read or listened to a book by Renee Fox before.

I'm always pleasantly surprised when I find out that Michael Ferraiuolo is the narrator of a story I'm about to listen to. He does such amazing voices and his narration is always spot-on.

I loved all these guys, humans and aliens alike, and Jude's kids totally cracked me up. Hey Jude, I really loved your kids names. And oh my gosh Joe, he's got to be the hippest cat in the crib.

Ezra with his insecurities, Titan with his superiority complex, opposites definitely attract, meggs, absentee parent, an authoritarian father, colloquialisms just don't mean the same when coming from an alien
