Synopsis (Goodreads):

An alien assassin. A tempting human female he can’t resist. But what can a killer offer to the woman he longs to claim?

Avery Watson moved to Denver to escape her controlling mother. Sure, it’s not easy, and she has to budget every penny, but it’s honest work. Plus, her new friends don’t care if she doesn’t wear makeup, don’t glare at her if she laughs too loud or snorts, don’t judge her if she geeks out about books and games. For the first time, she’s content.

And then she meets the tall, long-haired, sexy as sin Hunter Coleman.

This powerful, mysterious man isn’t the sort that small, freckled, awkward women like Avery usually attract. But apparently one slice of cherry pie is all it takes to draw his attention to her. Now his dark, intense eyes follow her every move. She should be worried, but he makes her feel safe. He makes her feel…wanted.

Yet Hunter is even more dangerous than he seems, and he’s not a man at all. He’s a red-eyed alien assassin with claws, fangs, and a tail, a ruthless warrior with a shadowy past who wants Avery to be his. He’s everything Avery should fear—he’s everything she desires. And he’ll stop at nothing to make her his lifemate.

There’s just one problem—he’s not the only alien targeting her, and his rivals don’t seem to have Avery’s best interests in mind.

Thoughts on Stalked by the Alien Assassin: Ahh, yesssss. An alien assassin with slightly sub-par social skills, a decided lack of morals when it comes to stalking (which is actually understandable considering the assassin part of his job), and a burning desire to keep his special someone safe. *thumbs up*

Admittedly, Avery isn't all that thrilled when the truth about the stalking part comes up (because it's one thing when you're stalking your prey to take them down for a kill and it's another when you're violating the trust of the person who ends up being the other half of your soul), but she also realizes that Hunter/Fyran didn't have the most standard lifestyle before inserting himself into her world. Plus, he's not human. Which, you know, means you can't exactly expect him to understand human hangups and issues right off the bat.

Anywho. I'm super enjoying these aliens who are being thrown into unfamiliar situations. Fyran DOES NOT want to go along with his orders and he sort of pushes against them every chance he gets. Right up until he realized he was putting Avery in danger, that is. Then he was 100% onboard with doing what he was supposed to do.

Some danger, some heartache, a few kisses, and one SUPER intense alien who doesn't understand what a locked door means. Good thing Avery is the understanding sort, amirite?
