Synopsis (Goodreads):
Dorothy Valentine is close to getting her PhD in wildlife biology when she’s attacked by a lion. On the bright side, she’s saved! On the not-so-bright side, it’s because they’re abducted by aliens. In her scramble to escape, Dory and the lion commandeer an escape pod and crash-land on an alien planet that has...dinosaurs?

Dory and her new lion bestie, Toto, are saved in the nick of time by a mysterious and sexy alien, Sol. On their new adventure, they team up with the equally hot, equally dangerous Lok, who may or may not be a war criminal. Whether it be trauma, fate, or intrigue, Dory can’t resist the attraction that’s developing in their trio....

As this ragtag group of misfits explore their new planet, Dory learns more about how and why they’ve all ended up together, battles more prehistoric creatures than she imagined (she imagined...zero), and questions if she even wants to go back home to Earth in this hilarious and steamy alien romance adventure comedy romp.
Thoughts on I Got Abducted by Aliens and Now I'm Trapped in a Rom-Com: A new Kimberly Lemming books and it's just as gloriously unhinged as I hoped it would be.

Dory gets a stay of execution (of sorts) when she's abducted by aliens just as she's attacked by a lion. While she's happy to not be the lion's next meal, she's not happy to wake up on an alien ship. So she does what any enterprising young woman would do in and stages a breakout. While she successfully escapes the alien ship, she also (a) ends up on an unknown planet with a myriad of dangers and (b) ends up with the lion who wanted to end her as her companion.

On the plus side, she and the lion can now communicate and a lion is a good dude to have on your side on a planet filled with predators. Also on the plus side, the planet they ended up on is populated by hunky alien men. On the downside, the two men vying over her have a bit of a beef with one another. Well, that's not entirely accurate. Sol is wary of Lok for reasons and Lok is kind of dominant and flirty in a way that gets Dory's heart going pitter patter in a BIG WAY. To be fair, Sol also has that hot, dominant alien thing going and he pushes Dory's buttons in his own way.

Let's just say these two alien hunks have Dory going on all fronts and leave it at that.

Dinosaurs, danger, owl aliens who are more than they seem, human enrichment areas, two alien males who couldn't be more different, but who work nicely for Dory, and a human lady who might have just found her groove on an alien planet. GOOD STUFF!
