Skar

All Celia wanted was to be a wife and a mother. All she was getting was a string of bad ex-boyfriends; ones that she had to run away from. All she had left was the clothes on her back, and the knowledge that she couldn't go back home. Ever. She was tiring of running, and running out of places to run to. Then Celia sees the opportunity to be a mail order bride for an alien race in desperate need of women. To be a wife and mother, combined with being on the other side of the universe? Sign her up!

But when Celia is left without a husband on the other side of the interstellar portal, she has to make a split-second decision — marry the golden-eyed seven-foot plus stranger named Skarbemir, or go back to earth, to the life she thought she'd left behind. Marrying Skar might be a literal marriage of convenience, but it also might just be what her heart desires…

Skar is a short & spicy sci-fi romance in the Love Across the Universe series. It is a 14,000 word stand-alone story, perfect for a quick bedtime read!
