So I Married Two Aliens: Mail-Order Alien Grooms Book 2 Author Lyonne Riley

Book Review

3.5 out of 5 stars!



"I came here for one alien husband. I think you have me confused with someone else." - Fiona


Fiona decides to follow in the footsteps of her friend, Amara, and take the plunge! Applying for the Galactic Matching Program and hoping to find her forever, even if her forever may look a bit nonhuman.


Only when a "clinical error" occurs, she finds herself with TWO alien husbands!? And she has to pick one of them?! Through many trials and errors Fiona finds herself falling for both of her husbands. Frills, tails, and all. Though both are claiming Fiona's their fated mate and accusing the other of lying. Will this be happy, don't have to choose ending? Or will the guys make the choice easier for her with all their bickering.


I was excited for the next book in the series and the fact that there are two aliens! I'm a sucker for a why choose romance. You do not have to read the books in order! Brief recap of what's going on, why aliens are on Earth, and why there is a matchmaking service. We do get to see Amara and Roth'kar again but no spoilers for their story and how they came to be!


For me I was more invested in the guys and their story. Just going to jump right in, this being my honest and personal opinion you may not agree with, but reading is very much subjective! I love Riley's works and have found great comfort in the reads and writing but Fiona's character felt a little flat for me. In and out of her POV chapters I just didn't really connect with her. 


Shathar and Khesan I adored! They do bicker a lot and some of their squabbles are ridiculous, but I mean they're aliens. Behaving according to their culture and race. I respected the fact that they didn't instantly get along or even consider sharing Fiona. The organic flow of it all and how they had to overcome things.


Several times I wanted to climb through the screen and hug Shathar! Khesan being younger and bolder but still showing signs of a gentle and compassionate heart. I also appreciated in one of the major turning moments that they didn't kick the other when they were at their lowest. The two are complete opposites but I could see that slow burn happening and confusion by it all!


This read does have some language but mild at best. There's mention of a mother passing two years ago and reopening a room that had been locked. Some grief and situations triggering it. All and all a lighthearted read focused on enemies to lovers and a woman who just wants forever!


"Don't tell me. You chopped down one of my neighbors' trees, didn't you?" - Fiona


A big thing I love about Riley's writing and this series is the differences in human vs alien. How Shathar and Khesan's translators work but they give the textbook definition of things. No Urban Dictionary or mention of figures of speech. Makes for great comical moments. The guys competing with each other backfires in the best way! They help one another grow and get more comfortable living on Earth and caring for Fiona. We do get romance, slow burn, and angst! This may be a spoiler, but the husbands become husbands! So MFM, MM, MMF action.


I cannot wait for the next installment and to see if maybe Margie is going to have an alien HEA! This read does have a very happy and sly HEA. Now excuse me while I go catch up with Gazargo to get Mexican food and play phone games!


Enjoy the fun read with drama, alien misadventures, and three POVs. Don't forget to give the author some stars!
