Reviewer: Stacey Krug  

Blurb/Summary:

 Mattie is exasperated by her surly Protector who won’t say two words to her. Grath keeps his guard up around the curvy little female because he wants her but knows he can’t have her. Add a trip to Mattie’s hometown for the holidays where they have to fake-date to fool her family and you’ve got a volatile mixture. Will they survive when Mattie agrees to try…Faking it with the Hybrid?

Dr. Mattie Porter has landed her dream job as a Xeno-Cultural Anthropologist with the Kindred, but she has one very big problem—a seven-foot-tall, grumpy, growly warrior named Grath. The huge Hybrid has been assigned to her as her Protector—a kind of bodyguard to keep her safe on alien planets. But he’s a surly bastard who won’t even talk to Mattie if he can help it!

Grath is a Triple-Hybrid, a male with Beast, Blood, and Flame Kindred strains in his DNA. This makes him a formidable warrior, but also ensures he won’t be able to bond with a female, which leaves him with a problem—he’s desperately attracted to the tiny, curvy Earth female he’s been assigned to Protect. But he knows he has to keep her at arm’s length to avoid pain and heartache.

It seems Grath and Mattie will never get along…but then Mattie needs a date for the Holidays. So now they’re going to her hometown to try and fool her family into thinking they’re engaged. But fake-dating during the Holidays isn’t without its pitfalls and neither of them knows that even in the quiet little town of Christmasville, danger is stalking Mattie.

Can Grath keep Mattie safe? Will they win the Christmas Cookie Bake-off? And will both of them lose their hearts when they finally let their guards down? To find out you’ll have to read this Grump and Sunshine, Enemies to Lovers, Fake Dating, hot Alien Warrior romance…
Faking it with the Hybrid!

Review:

Dr. Madeline (Mattie) Porter is a Xeno-Cultural Anthropologist and very much wants to travel to a Class 3 planet that only allows mated pairs to visit. Mattie and her protector, Grath, take off on a much closer mission to Earth to see if they can convince Mattie’s family that they are a couple.

I thoroughly enjoyed how Grath interacted and tried to integrate into Mattie’s family and human Christmas festivities. Christmas can be a stressful time for anyone, but Mattie must try and pull off a fake relationship while also dealing with high school trauma. Grath and Mattie have a considerable amount of emotional baggage to unpack and sort through. Both their personal development processes were fraught with trauma, self-doubt, and self-loathing. Read Faking it with the Hybrid to find out how Mattie and Grath help each other and reach relationship status.

This is a fun story that had me running through all the emotions and laughing aloud. Faking it with the Hybrid has great characters, a fast-moving plot, and a happily-for-now ending. I hope we see Mattie and Grath in future books.

I received this ARC for an honest review.
