Synopsis (Goodreads):

Can love bloom between a bookish human and a giant alien?

Gilmat was bred for a very specific set of skills - skills which never developed. Even after finding a new home with his brothers-in-arms, the knowledge of his failure haunts him. He certainly doesn’t deserve the gift of a tiny, fragile female - but he will fight to his last breath to keep her.

When Julie wakes up surrounded by flowers in the. middle of a blizzard she’s convinced she’s dreaming - but the huge green male holding her so carefully is very real. For the first time in her life more than her intellectual curiosity is aroused, even though her gentle giant is as much plant as man.

When outside forces threaten their newfound paradise, will Gilmat’s skills finally blossom in time to save Julie - and the rest of his family?

Thoughts on Gilmat: It's Gilmat's turn to connect with his special someone and...MAN, I LIKED THIS GUY. He's sweet, focused, has an affinity for plants, and REALLY likes Julie. He also has skills that he's not even aware of, but which will come in handy if his lady is ever put in a bad situation.

Look, I'm not saying a situation arises that bring those skills to the forefront, but...a situation arises that brings those skills to the forefront.

But let's talk about Julie first. Her mother's a little overbearing and she's basically stifled Julie's curiosity. To be honest, getting away from mama is probably the best thing that's ever happened to Julie. It gives her a chance to find herself and explore the thing between her and Gilmat. And that thing between her and Gilmat is gooooood.

Some exploratory sessions, a few plants determined to keep Julie close, a little danger, a little historical learning, and two people who work very well together. *thumbs up*
