A hilarious and sexy romance about a woman who gets dropped on a strange planet only to fall for not one, but two, aliens, from the author of I Got Drunk and Yeeted a Love Potion at a Werewolf.
Dorothy Valentine is close to getting her PhD in wildlife biology when she’s attacked by a lion. On the bright side, she’s saved! On the not-so-bright side, it’s because they’re abducted by aliens. In her scramble to escape, Dory and the lion commandeer an escape pod and crash-land on an alien planet that has...dinosaurs?
Dory and her new lion bestie, Toto, are saved in the nick of time by a mysterious and sexy alien, Sol. On their new adventure, they team up with the equally hot, equally dangerous Lok, who may or may not be a war criminal. Whether it be trauma, fate, or intrigue, Dory can’t resist the attraction that’s developing in their trio....
As this ragtag group of misfits explore their new planet, Dory learns more about how and why they’ve all ended up together, battles more prehistoric creatures than she imagined (she imagined...zero), and questions if she even wants to go back home to Earth in this hilarious and steamy alien romance adventure comedy romp.

Hands down, this must be the most chaotic, hilarious, sarcastic, jaw-dropping, on the nose debauchery and unexpected alien abduction book I've ever read.
While studying a group of Meerkats in the jungle, PhD student Dory's life is cut-short by a sudden attack from a lion. Not thinking things could get any worse, she finds herself waking up on an alien ship being examined but colorful Owls!?
Further down the rabbit hole, Dory begins to lean into the new bizarre reality she's found herself in as wave after wave of the impossible and improbable confronts her at every turn.
Without giving too many specific details about Dory to avoid spoilers, our FMC goes on a journey of self-acceptance in this crazy new world. Plagued by self-doubt and being seen as not accomplished or dignified enough by her mother her entire life, Dory needs a major confidence boost. And we see her find a companion, friend and sounding board in the lion who attacked her, no less.
And as the least likely person to entertain romantic relationships, Dory is thrown into a polyamours, couptrio at the hands of eccentric Owl-alien Intern for the sake of research. Dodging one danger after another, Dory's quest to make it back to Earth slips father and father away.
Reading this book, readers are highly likely to:
Cackle uncontrollably.
Blush at everything Lok says.
Want to throttle Intern
Wish they could visit Waffles
Shake their head every time Toto opens his mouth
Question if frogs should be sentient beings
Be reminded of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
As a fan of Lemmings' previous work, I went into this new series with excitement but also a little bit of worry. For readers like myself who have shortlists of authors they love to read, the vibes of new projects/genres can be so unexpected.
This new alien rom-com series will draw alien romance readers into the Lemmings' universe while maintaining the appreciation of her DnD/LitRPG reader-fanbase from her Mead Mishaps series. I cannot wait to read more.
