Synopsis (Goodreads):

A powerful alpha. An invisible female. One magical night.

Elli has always been invisible. Overworked, underestimated, and overshadowed by her manipulative aunt, her only refuge is the quiet sanctuary of her garden—until she realizes that someone is watching her from the woods.

Seren is long past the age when most Vultor males have either taken a mate or succumbed to their beast, but although it looks as if he will escape that curse, his loneliness grows stronger each year. Until he catches sight of a shy little human female. She is too young, too fragile, and too innocent for a hardened Vultor warrior, and yet he can't stay away from her.

When fate offers Elli a chance for one magical night with Seren, she seizes the opportunity. But midnight always comes and when it does, will he let her go or keep her forever?

Thoughts on Alien Charming: Another Vultor is about to meet his special someone and he is THERE for it. I mean, sure Seren fights it a little because Elli is young and sweet and he thinks she can do better than him, but it doesn't take long before THINGS HAPPEN and these two end up together.

That said, Elli's in a precarious position. Her aunt has poisoned the town against her (by making everyone believe she's slow and can't survive without her aunt's help, which makes Elli completely dependent on her because even if she were to somehow break free, the townsfolk would think they're doing this poor, uneducated, slow girl a favor by returning her to her aunt's house...yeah, that whole thing is just icky. NO LIKE.) and uses Elli as unpaid menial labor while putting her nefarious plans against the Vultor into place.

The brief visits she has with Seren in the woods are Elli's only bright spots in her days. Seren's too, come to think of it. Then Elli crashes the mating ceremony for Korrin and Tessa (with a little magical help from Scarlett's grandmother) and is caught by her not-so-kind aunt, Seren realizes that letting her go is not in the cards for him. To be fair, Elli came to the same conclusion and it isn't long before the two find their way to a happily ever after. I mean, they have to expose Elli's aunt's manipulative lies and turn a fraught situation into something that will benefit both the humans and Vultor first, but they get there. *thumbs up*
