Summary
A grumpy-sexy alien and his (mostly) human sunshiny mate find the road to happily ever after is paved with challenges, including a troublesome ex, alien refugees in need of help, unexpected mating instincts, and someone trying to expose alien existence on Earth. Tentacles and tarnation! Will they be able to handle everything in their way and finally get engaged?
River
Working for the Alliance is a sci-fi nerd’s dream–aka mine–come true. I’ve even won the heart of my grumpy-sexy alien boyfriend. Nothing can bring me down, baby. I’m walking on freaking sunshine! Except now one of Kai’s douchey AF exes decides to turn up like a bad case of crabs that he can’t get rid of. I don’t trust him one bit. But I’ve got even bigger problems to worry about. Like helping some awesome aliens in trouble, and maybe moving in with Kai, who’s totally going to propose any day now—right? Oh, and my shady relatives might be hiring an assassin to take me out. So, you know, a day in the life of River Sullivan. I’m sure everything’s going to be fine. Won’t it?
Kai
Just when we think we have a new lead on the drug dealer targeting extraterrestrials on Earth, we run into a major roadblock. And the longer this mess of an investigation drags on without answers, the less I like it. Outside of work though, things are going amazingly well with my adorable mate–dear galactic gods, how did that happen? But with an ex back in my life wanting to be friends again, and the threat of a potential assassin looming, things are getting a little complicated. I love River with both my hearts—and all five tentacles—but even I’m worried I might not be able to protect him from the dangers ahead. Also, I need to figure out how the heck I’m going to propose to him. River deserves something “epic,” and I don’t want to let him down. Am I going to be able to deliver?
Can’t Help Falling in Love with an Alien (Tentacular Tales #2) is a (116,000 words) M/M sci-fi rom com and the second book in the series. It should be listened to in chronological order. This installment features a pajama party date that will go down in infamy, inappropriate team t-shirts, a half-baked love poem, more Captain Starblade and Lord Vardox, drunken shenanigans courtesy of spaceship moonshine, unexpected mating instincts, plenty of new aliens with problems for River to solve, and tentacles galore. And possibly an epic proposal? This book has an HFN ending and no cheating. Never fear—there is a guaranteed HEA by the end of the series!

What a masterpiece <3
Another winner from Chloe Archer. The world building, the writing, the lovable characters are absolutely brilliant. I adore Kai and River so much! I love how the ending of the book was satisfying, but the overarching plot keeps you engaged for the next one.
Greg Boudreaux’s narration only elevates it all. His voices for the characters are amazing, they are all unique, matching their personality and background.
I can’t wait for the next one!

Entertaining
Another great story by Chloe Archer. River and Kai was fun characters to get to know. Greg Boudreaux did a great job with the narration.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

nonstop action and humour
The narrator did a fantastic job of bringing River, Kai and the rest of the cast to life. It was great to be able to listen to this fabulous novel.
Once again this book had so much humour that I was constantly grinning at something our main characters were doing or saying, especially River, well mostly River in fact, but Kai is coming a close second as River's influence is loosening him up big time. River is adorable and just as everyone (alien) he meets in the novel loves him, I loved him too. He seemed even more over-the-top in this novel and is doing so well putting his stamp upon Team ANAL.
There is so much going on in Can't Help Falling in Love with an Alien, River is trying to come to grips with the news he found out at the end of book 1 (I don't want to spoil it for people who haven't read it yet), an assassin is very likely after him, he's setting up ORAL, his relationship with his tentacled boyfriend Kai is zooming along and growing stronger by the minute, Kai's brother is still smitten by an oblivious uncle Benji, they are still tracking down the illegal drug issue and Kai's ex has shown up and is causing issues.
Chloe Archer has really come up with a great concept and her explanations and descriptions are so good I can completely imagine what she puts on the page.
I love the continuing snippets of River's 'Tentacle porn soap opera' story and the interchange between Captain Starblade and Lord Vardox along with the fan mail River receives and Kai's responding correspondence.

Brilliant Story & Listen🎧Hilarious & Entertaining!
Wow, you definitely can’t help falling in love with this series and the amazing characters! Chloe Archer delivers another spectacular and laugh out loud “Tentacular Tales” novel. This book is a continuation of River and Kai’s story and picks up where the first one, “It’s Not Unusual To Be Loved by an Alien”, left off, not only is it a not to be missed story and just as amazing as this book, but to get the most out of the world building, character growth and the ongoing storyline you want to read or listen to that book first. River and Kai quickly became some of my favorite characters and the secondary characters are close seconds and several of them will be getting they own books so I am excited about that. Archer created something very special when she created this series and the world it is set it, the characters and storylines are fascinating and the dialogue is absolutely brilliant. I am loving the in the moment scenes between the two leads as well as the ongoing storylines that are run through out the series. The writing, plotting and world building is phenomenal, as is the character growth and development. The story is entertaining and has the perfect balance of drama, humor and wit, heartfelt emotions, and some steamy romance, tentacles and all. Chloe Archer, thank you for another fabulously hilarious story, I am looking forward to what comes next in your “Tentacular Tales”.
🎧 📚🎧 I listened to the audiobook edition, Greg Boudreaux, whose talent knows no bounds, delivers an exceptional and “out of this world” performance bringing these characters and story to life. As always, his character voices are perfection, each voice is fitting to that character’ persona, and I loved how he took each role, ran with it and made it his own. You could hear how much heart and emotion that he puts into his work as he captures all the characters’ emotions and has you feeling every single one. He handles the witty dialogue with ease and lands the humor effortlessly. Boudreaux is an entertaining storyteller and a versatile voice artist. His narration enhances this already brilliant story to another level. Thank you for another outstanding listen, it is always a pleasure to listen to your audios.

Back with River and Kai
I waited for the audio to be released because of how fantastic Greg Boudreaux was narrating the first book of the series. Honestly, if it has Greg Boudreaux narrating, then I'm likely to enjoy it, and I did here.
This kicks off pretty soon after the last book ended with River and Kai getting pretty serious. Unfortunately, we have scheming exes and assassins to deal with.
More zany ideas from River that usually work out and plenty of steamy scenes. I particularly liked the fan mail emails.
Mal and Benji's story is set up nicely too!

My face hurts from laughing
The story, the performance, the world character building. EVERYTHING Is Epic!! Chloe Archer is not getting enough hype for these books, I swear my face and my stomach hurt for laughing. Those are for sure feel-good books that just suck you right into this world. I mean, where is a better place for aliens to hide in plain sight than Vegas!!!! I know I would be buying tickets to the alien strip show!! Chloe Archer, I am a slave for you, Queen!

Narration on point
I'm not usually a fan of books with aliens, but this series is a must listen for me. You could also read this book, but I think with Greg Boudreaux's fantastic performance, the audiobook is clearly the better choice. Events pick up where they ended in the last volume. Kai and River begin to solidify their relationship when Kai's ex-boyfriend shows up and tries to pick up where Kai left off as a friend. River is skeptical. It also gets exciting because there are assassins out to get River.
I love River and Kai as well as Kai's family and I love the way Greg Boudreaux reads this book. He brings it to life with the many very different voices he gives to the protagonists. These voice are all very appropriately chosen in my opinion and it is a real pleasure to listen to the narrator. The story is also a lot of fun. It is entertaining with fantastic protagonists and funny ideas that made me smile more often. It's also exciting. Kai and River together are hot! I also loved the chapter beginnings with the fan emails.
I highly recommend this series as an audiobook!
