Loved this book! Funny, sexy and laugh out loud.

Mala, from the planet Narek, is looking for the perfect man. Her grandmother was a intergalactic traveler who left a diary describing the exceptional lovemaking talents of Earth men. There is also a documentary that is actually a porn movie. She's leaves her planet to travel to Earth She crash lands and is discovered by Sheriff Mason McKinley.

And the fun begins! He takes her to the hospital for treatment and then takes her home with him. She wants sex immediately. The sheriff doesn't want to take advantage of her however much she wants to be taken advantage of...

How she adapts to Earth and what she learns are hilarious.

A very light read. I didn't find it all that interesting and I skimmed most of the book.

Ugh. This read like a bad tv comedy sitcom - trying too hard to be cute and funny. Waaay too corny for me.

So I was surprised at how much I liked this. It was hilarious! I laughed my ass off so many times. The humor is anywhere from cringe-worthy to just plain stupid (but so stupid it's funny). There was Mala telling everyone (literally everyone) she's having sex with Mason to the "documentary" (porn film) her grandmother had on Nerak. I enjoyed the side story with Barton getting some romance too. The baddies get a nice comeuppance too. I would have liked to have known more about Nerak (other than life is perfect there).
