The third installment in the Alien Mate series, I enjoyed this more than the first one. The less than perfect heroine, Stormy, has had bad luck with men and doesn't trust her judgement. Impulsive, with a big heart, she is also a single mom. Her bad boy alien may be a rebel, but his big heart matches hers and he is thrilled she comes with intrepid little boy to nurture and guide. The villains in this are driven by common flaws of envy, greed, and anger.
And then there is the steam.
And then there is the steam.

Love these fated mates in space...
With just enough angst to keep it interesting, this book gives us an fun SciFi romance with a catch up on previous couples. I do like to revisit.

Alien Intention is book three in the Alien Mate series by Cara Bristol.
This one had me glued to the pages. I couldn’t put it down. There was just something about this one that seemed more intense and had me fixated on the story to see what miss fortune might befall our characters next and how it would all play out.
Fated mate storylines are hit or miss for me. Some authors can do them justices while others fall short. Cara Bristol and her Alien Mate series has done this type storyline well and kept me coming back for more.
Romando gets a second chance, but when he finds out his fated one is sister to his nemesis, the one who ruined his life, he decides he can’t take this women as his.
Stormy arrives on Dakon with her six year old son and she can’t wait to begin her new life. She’s excited to be near her sister and hoping for her HEA.
Stormy and Romando felt that initial pull, zing of chemistry, but as fate would have it things don’t go as planned and everything that can go wrong, does.
I liked this romance. I wasn’t a fan of Romando from the previous books; because of his behavior, but we see that the bad boy can change. I liked that our hero learned from his mistakes, understood that what he did before was wrong, and that we see that he’s willing to work and show that he has changed. I loved Stormy too. I really felt for this couple and everything they had to go through to find their way to each other. I will say I wish karma would have bitten the mean girl in this novel. Really she was a piece of work and karma needed to knock her down.
I’ve had a blast with the Alien Mate series and I’m looking forward to the final novel. If you are in the mood for light and lively sci-fi romance with a touch of humor and spice then I recommend diving into this series.
Rated: 4 Stars

Gateway alien porn. I'm here for it. No tentacles though, so only gets a 4.

Review originally posted at BooksOfMyHeart.net.
This is the third book in the Alien Mates series by Cara Bristol. Alien Intention can be read as a stand-alone book, but I really enjoy the entire series, so I recommend to start with book one, Alien Mate.
This series takes place on the planet of Dakon. This planet was hit with by an asteroid that made Dakon a mostly frozen planet, with a short thaw season. The women were also hit by a virus on the asteroid that really hurt the number of females on the planet. Earth currently has more women than men. So Earth makes a deal with Dakon. Trade a valuable illuvian ore, that Earth is using for power, for women. The first group of women were convicts and forced to go. After that, it is on a volunteer basis.
So, in this story, we have Stormy and her son coming to Dakon. Stormy is the sister of Sunny, the heroine of Alien Attraction. Stormy was a reality star, just like her sister, but quit the show much sooner, because of her son. But, she is still somewhat famous and this causes strife between her and one of the other women that came to Dakon.
Romando was a large character in Alien Attraction. He was chosen to receive a mate, but lost his chit, which told him where he was to pick of the women who arrived. So, he proceeded to steal the mate of the man who used his chit. Now, he’s an outcast in his tribe. They feel that he disgraced the tribe. Things don’t get easier when he is forced to take woman who doesn’t like Stormy. This woman makes things really difficult for both him and Stormy.
The Alien Mate series continues to be a fun read. If you’re a fan of sci-fi romance or even paranormal romance, this is a series that I think you’ll enjoy. The characters are a lot of fun. The world is well developed. I don’t know if there will be more books in this series. I do know she’s working on a spinoff series, where the men come to Earth because they are tired to wait their turn. That could be interesting. I can’t wait.

Stormy and Sunny really were misnamed, each has the wrong temperament for their names LOL.
Stormy and her son has made it to their new home and she is drawn to a certain brooding giant...always the bad boy for Stormy it would seem. But as usual not all is as it seems. Sunny is trying to match-make, Stormy is facing jealousy and envy from a certain party and then there is Romando!
Romando had a valid beef after his chit was mislaid and misappropriated last time. But Sunny and her mate can only keep the whole "kidnap" thing in the front of their minds. Romando just deprived Sunny of her mate temporarily LOL. He has learned his lesson but it looks like fate is being a fickle female yet again!
Stormy just keeps trying to see the upside and not make waves. She wants a father for her son and if she can lust after her new mate, well all the better! I loves how she and Sunny are so totally opposite but have each others back, even when Sunny is trying to mother her!
Devon almost steals the show, bless him. Totally sweet and eager to please! Wondering what will happen next!

Ok this was funny. Romando was not my favorite. So glad he was redeemed. I really liked Stormy especially her temper. She was more my favorite type of heroine. Cute little Devon- I can see him with Starlett in some years. The tribes have got to learn that they are going to have to change some things. I like this world and I will keep reading more. I recommend this book. I gave it four stars because it was predictable, I knew it was coming but I still wanted to see what happened. I wish somethings were resolved (Polonio).
