Gravel and Grit: Khargals of Duras by Stacy Jones

BLURB:

Zaek is losing hope after waiting centuries for rescue, but the time has finally arrived. The lost emergency beacon has fallen from orbit and gone active. All he needs to do to get off this damn planet named Earth is find it and get to the pick up location in time. The problem? The beacon comes with an addictively confounding, Earthian female who makes his mating gland swell, marking her as his true mate. Zaek hasn’t been around a human who didn’t run away screaming monster in a millennium, so how the hell is he supposed to convince this smart, beautiful, sarcastic female to give him the opportunity to win her heart before he loses his chance forever?

Mira has always been obsessed with all things alien, but when one breaks into her lab at Area 51, first contact doesn’t go how she planned. Kidnapped and running for her life with a gruff gargoyle that definitely isn’t made of stone and has more than his share of quirks, Mira learns that sometimes plans are made to be thrown out the window.

With a black ops team hot on their heels, determined to kill or capture them both, time is running out and their fumbling romance isn’t the only thing standing in their way to happiness.

Review by Bubbles The Book Pimp

Zaek has been alone so long since he and the other Khargals crashed landed on earth a thousand years ago.

As a general he out of all the Khargals follows the prime directive to its limit… isolating himself from not only his brothers in arms, but humans and pretty much the whole world.. as a result he talks to himself… a lot…and fears that he is beyond saving…beyond fixing and beyond love.

When the Khargal beacon is activated he knows this isolation much come to an end… he must find the beacon, repair it and get to the rendezvous point! Without raising the human population of his existence or falling head over heals for the fluffy bunny!! 🤣🤣🤣

Another thrilling instalment in this shared World Series brought to us by the fantastic Stacy Jones.

Zaek is a true marshmallow man ( he literally has a hard stony outer and big softy innards ) brought to his knees by Mira…a scientist..working for the BAD GUYS..who inadvertently fixed the beacon enough to get it working…Mira has always been interested in space and aliens, working on the alien tech is a chance for her to move up and develop as a scientist…she was expecting a promotion .. not a six foot 8 gargoyles breaking into her lab and ‘rescuing her’.

When this book wasn’t breaking my heart over how Zaek suffered with low self esteem..killing me dead with a truly heart wrenching blossoming ‘love of all time..I was laughing my head off… and gripping my seat with the serious asskicking action that fills this books pages. Which made for an exceptional read.

In true Stacy Jones fashion.. this book hit all the requirements for a fantastic sci fi romance read! ( and yet ANOTHER addition to Bubbles The Book Pimps reverse harem of book boyfriends!) 🤣🤣
