First of all thank you for the e-arc. I really appreciate it! This book is such a fun guilty pleasure. This book is fun in the same way ice planet barbarians was. It had a little suspense and a lot of love. Just the spicy girls like it!

3.75-4 ⭐️
3.5 🌶

First off, this is a pretty quick, cute, alien romance. Things start off really spicy and stay that way. I'm hoping that this is the first in a series because I have a lot of questions!

I, personally, felt like this was missing a little something but I can't quite put my name on what it is, exactly. It was cute, though! And it has a lot of promise.

This book was so fun! I read it in one sitting! It has all the alien swoon worthy moments and the species banter is unmatched!!!! I was obsessed with this couple!!! 5 stars no doubt!

Okay this was so unbelievably fun! From start to finish I was having the time of my life! The story was so original, I had never read anything like it and I devoured the whole thing in one sitting. Delphine and Haven had such a sweet relationship. It started when they were young so the familiarity of the two of them was such a good foundation once Haven got to earth and they could be together. The spice was phenomenal and Haven is so obsessed with Delphine, top tier book boyfriend material. Also as a cat lady I’m obsessed with how much the story revolves around cats. It truly was so fun! And Pavarti was such a little character! I loved her! This was such a good book! I hope Rachel decides to write more books in this world because I will be first in line for them!

This book is quite quirky, and a fun alien romance set on a dystopian Earth. A super fun and quick read, I would recommend if you're looking for light hearted romance who's MMC has a tail ;)
Also, cats <3

I received a digital copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

A fun alien x human romance with an actual plot to give it some backbone.

The author clearly thought out the lore concerning the alien world and the human world which was well done. Aliens trying to save cats everywhere, ingenious.

A romantic relationship 10 years in the making, there’s no calling this one instalove! Our MCs both respect each other’s boundaries and pasts and make for a healthy relationship.

Plus there’s quite a bit of spice!

Cats + alien romance = sign me up.

This book is a quirky, romantic, and fun alien romance set on a dystopian Earth, where 23 year old Delphine has spent a decade dreaming of an alien man who promises to save her from her bleak, doomed life. Everyone tells her she’s imagining things, but then the Eldrin aliens actually arrive, and her not so imaginary soulmate, Haven, makes true on his word, rescuing her…along with the rest of humanity, reluctantly.

Haven originally planned on coming to Earth to save his species’ genetic ancestors, cats, but everything changed when he mind bonded with Delphine ten years before at the start of his journey through the stars. Their connection has been building for years, and unbeknownst to her, he’s been psychically communicating with her beloved cat, Parvati, to keep an eye on her.

I really enjoyed the world building and Earth’s strict Saviour or Server class system. The writing is simple at times, quirky, with some odd reactions from characters, but honestly, the whole book is weird in the best way. There isn’t much conflict or resolution within the story due to the focus on the romance and spice, but it's still a fast paced, easy read that's sure to fulfill your alien rescue/abduction dreams.

Speaking of the romance, it was really cute and I loved how they were together. Haven is protective, possessive and practically worships Delphine. Though Delphine has slept with other people, she only does it as a means of escaping, and heavily relies on going to sleep just to see Haven. Their bond is pretty instantaneous, so when they actually meet it's like we're meeting then halfway through their romance. The spice was definitely interesting, as you'd expect, with Haven's alien biology adding to the strangeness (hello, knotting and tail).

The book wraps up pretty quickly, leaving us feeling fulfilled and feeling happy with the delightful ending and super adorable epilogue. Overall, this was such a quirky, light hearted, easy read that I would recommend!

4/5 🌟

3.5 / 5 Stars

This was a very fun, breezy read! In “Saved By My Alien Husband,” Delphine has been dreaming of Haven for 10 years. Everytime she closes her eyes, she sees her imaginary alien friend who she has the hots for. He tells her that he is coming to Earth for her, which she desperately needs because Earth is becoming more and more uninhabitable. Well, it turns out that he is, in fact, very real and he does come to Earth for her and for the cats, who are the alien’s genetic ancestors. Now Delphine and Haven have to figure out who else gets saved and what life for them and everyone else looks like.

This book really flew by which was great! It was nice to read a story where the conflict wasn’t around whether Delphine and Haven would be together but instead was about them clearly being committed to each other (after ten years of building a relationship) and instead trying to navigate life as a couple. Delphine comes into her own and Haven just really loves and wants to protect his wife. What a treat! This was my first foray into “unique alien anatomy” which was also fun.

Saved by my alien husband is an alien/human romance where for 10 years Delphine believes Haven is imaginary until one day she finds that he is actually real. I wasn't sure what to expect out of this story since I have never read an alien romance before but I enjoyed this and finished it pretty quickly. There was spice but it also had humor at times. I do wish it was a little bit longer with some more detail into the backstory of the characters but overall it was a good read especially for someone's first time reading alien smut.

Thank you to Aria James Publishing, NetGalley, and Rachel H. Drake for the ARC.

All right - I read this because alien smut. And I really wanted to like it because it just seemed like major “my wife” fun energy.

Based on the synopsis, I wasn’t expecting this to make overmuch sense but I found this to read more like 9th grade fan fiction (ninth grade in that at 55% of the way in I’ve no idea about who these characters really are or why they’re in love, it seemed like a mix of sex and “these people treated my wife badly and I’m going to have my father, the king, do something about it” immature revengey - I appreciate the author’s obvious care for her stories but if I’m going to read fan fiction I need more character growth/development and I also need characters to be more than the flimsy, one dimensional like they are here. And the smut was…for me, more awkward than hot.

Other readers may find this to be wonderful; unfortunately, I was not that reader.

Saved by my Alien Husband by Rachel H. Drake was a different type of alien romance.

Earth is dying and Delphine thinks that her alien friend is really imaginary, but Haven is absolutely real and he comes to her to help save her and her cats - his ancient ancestors.

A totally different take on the typical monster type of romance, this was more closed door and sweet, but definitely a quick and fun read.

It can't be bad if everyone loves cats!
