“Amazing world-building, lovable characters, funny romance, political schemes, delicious queerness, and tons of action in space. This sci-fi book has it all, it seems.”

FATED MATES IN SPACE

This book was surprising in more than one ways.

First of all, I expected a male-male romance with sci-fi elements, not an action-packed science-fiction book with political nuances and two main relationships, not one.

The general idea is that there’s an alien species called the Draconis, and they match with all kinds of other species. When you’re near your match, it happens at once and you share magical powers. So one of the main couples is a Draconis prisoner who matches with a human guard, and they go on a journey in space together, and the other main couple is of a Fornarian pirate and the guard’s human best friend. The connections between these people are so winding and entertaining, I couldn’t stop reading.

While I expected to like the ‘main’ couple more (prisoner and guard), the secondary one was funnier and had more pages than the main one, which was confusing, but I can’t complain.

Basically, I was confused by the genre and by how many couples there are in this book, but I have to say, if you love science fiction and the idea of fated mates, and if you love an action-packed story with a lot of world-building, space battles, and adorable characters, then this might be the book for you.

Overall, this is a really good story and the romance parts were really amazing, too.
