I was just desperate for a bit of fun. The world is dark and terrible enough as it is. When I wrote the first book, I just wanted to take myself on a fun little adventure where I knew everything was going to be ok in the end….Imagine you’re minding your business as an animal researcher and then out of nowhere you get attacked by a lion. Rude right? Now imagine you and that lion get abducted by aliens and brought onto a ship with a bunch of freaky looking birds trying to poke and prod at you. You manage to fight your way to freedom, steal an escape pod and crash land onto a planet populated by taller, hotter aliens and dinosaurs. Also, the lion talks now. So, there’s that.

What booksellers are saying about I Got Abducted by Aliens and Now I’m Trapped in a Rom-Com
- Kimberly Lemming’s stories are pure joy. They’re comforting and cozy, while also being funny and bringing the spice and heat. I Got Abducted by Aliens and Now I’m Trapped in a Rom-Com is all of that and more. It’s a wonderful start to a new series and Kimberly does a wonderful job at complicated world building and making us believe everything that happens to Dorothy Valentine is possible. I laughed out loud so many times and could not put the book down. I can not wait to read more Cosmic Chaos and see more of Dotty, Sol, Lok, Toto, and Cupid. There is so much to be explored!

- I am a sucker for alien romances in general, but I have to say that Ms Lemming has done an amazing job with this one! I’ve read her previous works and it’s amazing how much you can see her growth as an author! I immediately fell in love with Dorothy and Toto, they made me grin like a fool as I read. This is also a fun “why choose?” novel that does the trope well. Most of the time it feels almost too cheesy for me to believe, but Lemming knocks it out of the park with Sol and Lok, creating a perfect foil between the two that still manages to be balanced. I eagerly look forward to the next Cosmic Chaos book! If you need a break from reality with some spice and cuddly lions that adopt you into their pride, this is the one for you!

- Sure, Lemming brings the hilarity, but she also brings the sweetness and the spice! Dory is SO close to getting her PhD when she’s abducted by aliens and plopped down on a new world. All she wants is to figure out a way home, but her new BFF, Toto the lion, and her new love interests, Sol and Lok, are making her feel more at home every day. But she’ll have to fight her way through the terrain of this new planet and defeat or befriend the wildlife before she can even attempt that. As a wildlife biologist, that shouldn’t be too hard. Key word: shouldn’t.
