About this listen

He comes in peace… amongst other things.

When college kid Jude Adler wishes for a new life on a shooting star, he never imagined it would come in the form of a shapeshifting alien who nearly crash-lands his spaceship on top of him, let alone one who chooses to disguise himself as a man inspired by Jude’s wildest fantasies.

Al’s ship is damaged and unable to make the flight home, and when he earnestly asks Jude for a safe place to stay until help arrives, how can Jude say no?

Keeping his hands to himself until then shouldn’t be difficult… but Jude is only human, and there’s only so long anyone can resist a roommate disguised as the hottest guy imaginable.

A roommate whose insatiable curiosity is piqued by Jude’s human body…And who shares Jude's only bed.

Crash-Landed in Love is a hilarious paranormal romance set on modern-day Earth with an HEA and no cliffhangers. It contains a clueless alien who is quite good at pretending to be a human, a love that’s written in the stars, shapeshifting body parts, and enough steam you’ll start to worry that your spaceship is on fire.

Please note that while this series has a contemporary setting… life finds a way.

Delightfully unexpected and funny alien romance

Totally unexpectedly delightful. I actually picked this up as an audiobook because of the narrator - that man could read the dictionary and I'd be enthralled, and I was expecting a light, fluffy silly alien romance with a smattering of suprise Mpreg. Well it's all that, but so much more - the fun and silly storyline merges somewhere into something deeper, more emotionally complex, in a way so rarely done in books with characters from wildly different worlds (either literally or figuratively), diving into possibly a more realistic human reaction to finding themselves in such an earth-shatteringly unique position, so much so that I got really REALLY upset with one of the characters (no spoilers!) as the relationship between human Jude and himbo alien 'Al' developed and I actually thought my heart was breaking at some point. The silliness (largely manifesting in the way Al chooses to interpret and communicate with the world) continues throughout, kept me giggling to the end though. Recommended!

Out-of-This-World! Brilliant Story & Listen🎧

“Crash-Landed in Love”, the first book of Piper Scott and Renee Fox’s “He’s Out of This World” series is just what I was expecting it to be, absolutely amazing, and I loved everything about it. The story is interesting and original, drawing you in right from the start and captivates your attention the entire time. Jude Adler’s drive out to the desert to get away from it all and take his mind off of his troubles, turns into something so unexpected and something huge. Witnessing a crash landing of a spaceship, coming face-to-face with an alien being and not sure what he was thinking, but he winds up taking said alien back to his apartment to keep him safe and away from the government and the men in black. Having an unpronounceable name, he changed it to Al, making it easy for his new humanoid friend. Al felt an instant connection to Jude, who was patient with him as he learned the way of humans, their language, time, and way of life. Things take off when Al realizes who Jude is to him and, unbeknownst to Jude, Al takes the relationship to another level, something Jude learns soon after. Jude tries to hide what Al is from his roommate, Ezra, but Ezra is on to them, which helps when Al needs someone to confide in. There is never a dull moment in this cleverly plotted story, a story that has the perfect balance of drama, humor, heartfelt emotions, and steamy romance. The world building, character growth and development are incredible. The witty dialogue is brilliant and hilarious and it was great to watch Al get accustomed to the way of life, and a life with Jude, who doubts himself and his ability to be in a relationship. Piper Scott and Renee Fox, thank you for this wonderfully entertaining story, the laughs and the emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 Michael Ferraiuolo is a versatile voice artist, and he did a fabulous voicing these characters, giving each their own distinct sound, making it easy to follow along and tell who was who. His portrayal of each was spot on, grasping every aspect of their personality and demeanor perfectly, from Jude’s insecurities to Al’s quirkiness, and was just as amazing performing the roles of the side/secondary characters too. Setting the right tone for the story, his pacing was great, and he handled the back-and-forth banter and witty dialogue effortlessly, and landed the humor naturally. You could hear how much heart he puts into his performance as he captures all the characters’ emotions and has you feeling them all. Ferraiuolo is an entertaining storyteller and his performance elevates this already amazing story to another level.

Cute and funny alien love

This was an easy romp most of the time, even if I cried a little too. The linguistic and cultural misunderstandings were hilarious, and Als frustration with the English language is shared by a lot of humans. I was pleased to realise there will be another book, hope it comes soon!

Lots of laughter, teasing, kindness, and a few misunderstandings

4.25/5 I listened to this on audio and thought that Michael did a fantastic job. This was sweet, funny, and had a bit of an angsty section thanks to a stellar lack of communication about one major issue, lol. (Shall we just say that protection is always a smart idea, especially if you’re dealing with a new species?) Al is literal, funny, and very sweet. Jude is kind, rolls with the whole alien thing, and needs to work on his self-esteem. His roommate Ezra is hilarious and awesome. This had definite ET vibes (no matter what Al says about accuracy), but for college-aged adults. It’s honestly pretty “slice of life”, just with an alien thrown in.

I was really glad once they started working past their issues and did a better job of supporting and caring for one another. (I’m torn between really not having expected that amount of angst given the rest of the book and also sort of thinking it appropriate given the seriousness of what happened without everyone realising. I’m all about bodily autonomy, but I also see why it seemed like consent had been given.) I’m very grateful for Kyle and the tidy ending.

Looking forward to more in this series (though I don’t like Al’s brother so far, lol).

I received an ARC from GRR. This is my honest review.

Fantastic!

This was a delightful story! The writing was excellent and Michael Ferraiuolo's performance was wonderful. I literally LOL'd more than once. The blurb tells you everything you need to know about the story. I'm just going to say if you like your romance with spice and a side of wacky humor you should love this book. I also enjoyed the original music by Michael Ferraiuolo.

Funny and unique

Almost all of those 5 stars are for Al. The whole fish out of water thing was done so well. Al's problems with time were funny. His rants too on the English language, which fair, is actually nonsensical, and I say that as a native speaker!

Jude was also great. Very easy going and accepting, until he hit his breaking point. Honestly, he bugged me for a while, mostly because he was hurting Al, who I felt protective over. But I thought about it and his reaction was valid. He had this fascinating alien man saying he was his mate, and he was pregnant, Jude didn't feel worthy of that. So I forgive him for the little angst he caused.

I am totally up for an entire series of these aliens finding love on earth!

The narration, as always, was perfect. So easy to listen to.

An instant favorite!

This started out just so cute and hilarious and then sucker punched me right in the feelings. There was quite a bit of relationship angst and I enjoyed the heck out of it. Al must be protected at all costs and is my absolute favorite type of character. I cannot wait until the next book! And while I've long been a Piper Scott superfan, I'm so excited to see more from Renee Fox! Michael Ferraiuolo is the perfect pair to these books as he gives so much life to the characters and lets all the quirks and idiosyncrasies fully shine! Plus, the sound effects and alien language are top notch.

A quirky alien romance

Al and Jude's romance was an adorable, quirky story about acceptance and finding love where you least expect it. I'm not much of an alien lover, but even I fell head over heels for Al, and watching him and Jude fall in love was something special. Despite literally being different species, Jude and Al had a surprising amount in common, most notably their rocky relationships with their families, and I found myself utterly charmed by their unexpected connection. Al had a lot to learn about being a human, and I had so much fun watching him adjust to (and complain endlessly about) all the eccentricities we disregard every day. He and Jude had a strong physical connection right from the start, but the two of them also developed a surprisingly deep emotional bond that neither of them acknowledged out loud for weeks. As entertaining and lighthearted as their days together were, Jude and Al had a lot of insecurities buried under the surface that affected the way they communicated with each other. Some of their misunderstandings were more severe than others, but despite some of the tense, heartbreaking moments along the way I truly did believe the two of them would find their way back to each other in the end. Some of the events in this story were absolutely wild, but I kinda love that this book didn't get bogged down in sci-fi and embraced the whimsical nature of star-crossed lovers. I got invested in Jude and Al's happiness easily, and while their fairytale ending was a little unconventional, I love the way things worked out for the two of them!

A Cute Alien Romance with a Frustrating Breakup

I really enjoyed the start of Crash-Landed in Love—it hooked me right away with its humor and the adorable dynamic between Jude and Al. Their interactions were fun, and I found myself rooting for them from the beginning. Al, in particular, was such a sweet character, and his charm made the story even more enjoyable.

But then came the dreaded 50-80% breakup, and I just didn’t get it. The miscommunication trope isn’t my favorite, and this one felt especially unnecessary. It dragged on way longer than it needed to, making me frustrated with Jude’s back-and-forth. I kept thinking, “Just make up your mind already!”

That said, the book still had its moments. It was cute, funny, and had an overall enjoyable vibe, even if it meandered a bit. If you can push through the rough middle section, it’s a fun listen with a sweet alien romance at its core.
