Synopsis (Goodreads):

With Christmas around the corner, can Emily and a Cu’zod alien warrior turn fake dating into a happily ever after?

Blue-skinned, scaled aliens are settling on Earth, and Emily signed on to be a sponsor. Likir will work at her animal rescue, and she’ll help him transition into Earth society. But after her jerky ex cuts off her animal rescue funding right before Christmas, Emily’s scrambling to find donors. When Likir spontaneously offers to be her pretend date to secure tickets to the annual Christmas Costume Ball where she’ll find donors galore, she accepts. But a few stolen kisses make this feel way too real. Can Emily keep her hands off this appealing Cu’zod warrior?

Before Prince Likir moved to Earth, he ditched his royal status, determined to succeed on Earth under his own merits and not those of his illustrious family. He doesn’t expect to find his sponsor the most appealing female on the planet or to find himself pretending to be her boyfriend. The more he gets to know her, the harder he falls. Can he convince Emily to make their pretend romance real?

Thoughts on Falling for an Alien Elf: Another Cu'zod warrior is arriving on Earth for the holidays and...well, at least he didn't crash land like the last one. On the other hand, his host for the holidays happens to be his true mate and her ex is trying to make things as difficult as possible for her and her business is in danger, but he didn't crash in the middle of a snowstorm, so there's that.

On Emily's end, she's struggling after her JERK of an ex withdrew his funding for her animal rescue. She's worried about finding donors during the holidays and she's sort of a low-key mess. Mostly because she's overwhelmed. Likir and the animals she's rescued are the one bright spot in her holidays and she's determined to show the newly arrived alien what the holidays are all about.

A little holiday magic, a little alien lovin', a whole bunch of rescued critters looking for their forever homes, and one former prince who's finding love on a distant planet. GOOD STUFF.
