My Favorite Earthling by Susan Grant

Knowing the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Jared Jasper is willing to sacrifice himself to insure its continued safety. Of course getting engaged with the sexy warrior-queen, Keira is not without its own benefits Keira knows that protecting her people is her number one priority and the best way to do that is to marry the prince of Earth before Earth has a chance to disrupt galactic politics. Of course adapting to married life is someone challenging for Jared, especially when his wife carries around a plasma sword for fun. But someone else has plans for Keria – one where Jared won’t fit. Now can Jared protect his wife to save the Earth or will Jared start an interstellar war?

Picking up where Your Planet or Mine left off, Susan tells the tale of Jana Jasper’s brother. Like the first story, this one is full of humor and just enough danger to keep me turning pages. If you like romance with a sci-fi twist, you’d better move this book to the top of the heap.
