Scaly, grumpy, but oh so cuddly...
As a third daughter on the farming colony of Meterion, Susan’s future prospects aren’t too promising. A pretty face, top-notch skills, and hard work mean nothing if your dowry doesn’t include fertile lands. With her twenty-fifth birthday approaching, and no suitors even remotely sniffing in her general direction, Susan will be forced to leave the family lands to work as an indentured servant in the capital city. Her only way out is to settle for an arranged marriage through the PMA – the Prime Mating Agency. She just never expected to be paired to a grumpy, massive lizardman, and above all not to grow so fond of his scales and quirky ways.
With everything going on, the last thing Olix needs is a mate, especially a squishy, scaleless, off-worlder with strange ways, and an obsession with farming. He is a Hunter, not a dirt digger. The Seer must have been mistaken when she insisted that, for the sake of the people, he take a mate from the stars. How can such a tiny thing be their salvation? And yet, his Susan’s softness is disturbingly addictive while hiding a surprising resilience.
With his ancestral lands on the line and the future of the clans threatened, could this wisp of a woman turn their fate around?
Also in this series: I Married a Naga, I Married a Birdman
I Married a Lizardman was a nice start to the Prime Mating Agency Series.
It’s not instant romance as you sometimes see in these mating agency reads, but there is attraction that builds. We’re treated to very little drama and a smooth story. Susan takes a risk, but it’s worth it if she can do what she loves and in the process fall in love. I enjoyed getting to know Olix and his people. Last, the artwork at the end is beautiful.
I Married a Lizardman is a cute and sweet science fiction romance read. I recommend it!
Rated: 3.5 Stars

I like the Ice Planet Barbarians series. Glad to see you picked it up. Can’t wait to see your thoughts on the novels. Thanks for checking out my review on this one.
The book sounds intriguing. Very fitting cover.
Thanks Piroska for visiting and checking out my review.
Yes, that is unusual not to have instant love happening with a mail order situation. I do love seeing them get to know each other and finding connection in spite of their differences. I like another series she writes so I’ll have to try this one.
Hmm I’ll have to look into other works by Abel. I’ve enjoyed what I’ve read in this series so far. It’s different. Thanks for visiting!
What an interesting cover!
I agree. Thanks for visiting!
